Hi,

It's possible it's picking up the wrong driver even after uninstallation.

Can you try these steps:

From device manager right click on the USB Ethernet device
Select uninstall and be sure to select "Delete the driver software for this device"
Select OK
From device manager select the Action menu and select "Scan for hardware changes"
Select "Other devices" from within device manager
Select the USB Ethernet device
Select “Update Driver Software” -> "Browse my computer for driver software" -> "Let me pick from list" ->”Have disk” -> Select "Network Adapter" -> Select Browse -> Select "C:\Program Files\DisplayLink Core Software\CdcNcmDriver\Ndis6.2.Hck81" -> Select "Next"

Let me know how you get on.

Thanks,
James
