Can you be more specific. &nbsp;<br />

<blockquote>
Before the reboot it looses the ability to ping the Server's ip. &nbsp;It can still ping the router and other systems on the network and access the internet 
</blockquote>
From what source and destination. &nbsp;<br />
Have you gone both ways?<br />
are you able to touch the server from other locations?<br />
Have you done any hardware diag on the card or cable?
</div>


<div>
The work station cannot ping the server after the rdp disconnect. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
No, I've not tried it from the server. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
No other workstations loose connectivity so it is localized to that system.<br />
<br />
No mostly because the card is still working and connectivity is still present to any other network location except the server. &nbsp;Internet connectivity also still exists.

I have a workstation that is Win10 and is using RDP to connect to a 2008 Server. &nbsp;On an intermittent basis it will disconnect for no apparent reason. &nbsp;Then it cannot reconnect unless the system is rebooted. &nbsp;Before the reboot it looses the ability to ping the Server's ip. &nbsp;It can still ping the router and other systems on the network and access the internet . &nbsp;It's just the server that is unavailable. &nbsp;Any resolutions?

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.
