Omen Accelerator listing my Ethernet driver as a cd rom?

[Bobguyawesome]

Hello, my ethernet driver on my Omen Accelerator has magically turned into a CD-ROM. I have no idea what had happened but I simply cannot fix it. I do not know what else to add besides the fact I would like this issue resolved and I need some help with that. Any further information, if needed, I shall give. Thank you.

Hi! @Bobguyawesome,

Have you installed any docking station drivers on the PC?

Please share the product number of the PC to assist you better.

To recover from this issue, perform the following steps:

1. Disconnect the Thunderbolt 3 cable from the host computer.
2. Unplug the OMEN GA-10's power cord for about 1 minute (until the power LED turns off).
3. Reboot the host computer.
4. Plug in the OMEN GA-10's power cord.
5. Connect thunderbolt 3 cable to the host computer.
6. The USB and LAN function will be restored.

Also, try updating the drivers to the latest version using support assist and check if it helps.

I hope you have a great day! 🙂

The issue had resolved itself. For what I think it had been an issue with it cooperating with the ethernet hub I have. After I had removed the hub I later found out that my LAN was retuned to normal. I will try these fixes if it happens again. Sorry for the late reply and thank you for the help.
