have tried methods present on youtube but  no solution found till now.

i wanted give update.  we still working on official fix through kb download or windows update, although cannot provide eta.  however can provide unofficial fix now.  warning, steps complex.

 

step 1:  upgrade fall creators update , have latest updates windows update.

 

step 2:  download devcon.exe

there couple ways tool.  one way installing windows driver kit (wdk).  you can install here:  https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/windows-driver-kit

after installing find devcon.exe in “%systemdrive%\program files (x86\windows kits\10\tools\x64” 64 bit versions or in “%systemdrive%\program files (x86\windows kits\10\tools\x86” 32 bit versions.

 

an alternate way use steps documented here:  https://superuser.com/questions/1002950/quick-method-to-install-devcon-exe

to summarize steps:

for 64 bit:

download https://download.microsoft.com/download/7/d/d/7dd48de6-8bda-47c0-854a-539a800faa90/wdk/installers/82c1721cd310c73968861674ffc209c9.cab

extract file in cab “filbad6e2cce5ebc45a401e19c613d0a28f” , rename devcon.exe.

 

for 32 bit:

download https://download.microsoft.com/download/7/d/d/7dd48de6-8bda-47c0-854a-539a800faa90/wdk/installers/82c1721cd310c73968861674ffc209c9.cab

extract file in cab “fil5a9177f816435063f779ebbbd2c1a1d2” , renamed devcon.exe.

 

step 3:  insert device.

wait 30 seconds

 

step 4:  open elevated command prompt

right click on windows start button

select windows powershell  (admin)

select yes run powershell admin privileges

type command “cmd” switch powershell command prompt

 

step 5:  verify device has 169.x.x.x ip address

run command ipconfig

you should see device listed 169.x.x.x address.

(the nature of bug device not getting proper 192.168.x.x address)

 

step 6:  run devcon.exe reload driver

switch directory contains devcon.exe.  such cd “%systemdrive%\program files (x86\windows kits\10\tools\x64”

 

run devcon.exe status "usb\vid_12d1&*"

run devcon.exe update %systemroot%\inf\wceisvista.inf "usb\class_e0&subclass_01&prot_03

 

wait 10 seconds

 

run devcon.exe remove "usb\vid_12d1&*"

run devcon.exe rescan

 

after 20 seconds device should functioning normally.  if run ipconfig again should see correct ip address.

 

 

please let me know if works or not.  if these steps complex please wait official update.  i not have date when update available.
