Microsoft may install a different, but compatible driver for some network cards. As a result, the network card listed may not actually be the exact manufacturer or model that is installed on your computer.

Other methods of determining the network card type

  1. Another method of determining the network card in the computer is by physically looking at the network card. Many times the network card lists the manufacturer and part number on the actual card.
