Current driver
12.17.10.8 dated 12th June 2018, Publisher & Digitally Signed by: Microsoft

After two years, now Dumo is reporting a new driver v12.18.9.23 (after 12.17.10.8) for Intel 82579V gigabit network connection

Considering dumo's history of showing wrong driver, asking here, whether that newer driver version showing here is really for the  Intel(R) 82579V Gigabit Network Connection or not.

Have checked Microsoft update catalogue website , & there's the driver v12.18.9.23, but while trying to install that, Intel 82579V is not listed as compatible devices in the INF.
