The package provides the installation files for Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller LAN Driver version 10.28.615.2018. If the driver is already installed on your system, updating (overwrite-installing) may fix various issues, add new functions, or just upgrade to the available version.
Hello
I have been having interrupts in my Ethernet controller at random intervals. The cable works fine and all of a sudden I am thrown off the Internet and the connection no longer works. For a while I disabled and re-enabled the network adapter and that fixed it temporarily. Now, that doesn't even work.
The name 'Inventec' looked foreign to me. I researched it and found this thread from Microsoft which alarmed me:

I don't need a Family Controller and I don't know what happened to my old driver. I am under the impression that my system is being spied on through this faulty driver that was given to me by MS Windows Update service.
Can someone please walk me through steps to resolve this?
Thank you
