Intel i225-V 2.5G NIC not working [RESOLVED]

[RubyStone]

Hello everyone,
MY new ASUS ProArt Z490-CREATOR board works basically fine with LM20 except for networking. I wasn't going to use the 10G NIC because it would be a wast until I upgrade my network. So I figured I would use the built-in NICm which is the Intel i225-V. NO GO.

Any complete solutions?
I don't really want to install an older NIC but I will if its just not a possibility with LM20.

Thank you all in advance.

Per Intel themselves, they close their own forum which had thousands views and hundreds of end users reporting problems with that same ethernet chipset on their own Intel based motherboards without getting back with their customers ( Intel at first claimed "Our engineering team is currently investigating the issue, and we are currently awaiting their feedback"

Yeah..ah..I don't mean to sound like a fear monger here, but this is some serious crap going on on Intel's side. I question if a driver would even matter. If it doesn't, well at least you have some extra scoop here.

Per info from Intel, they claimed it was a hardware flaw and promised to have it fixed by the time of Rocket Lake S's launch.
