Model: TG-3468  
Hardware Version: V4
Firmware Version:

Once that it wasn't any "setup.exe" in the adapter installation file, I tried to do it manually, as was advised. Unfortunately, when i opened the Device Manager, there were not any "TP-LINK" drive in the Network Adapters section. However, I know the drive was recognized, because I can use the internet when connected by the adapters hardware.

Hello  @Leo_Carlos 

Please check if the adapter shows up under the Device manager-> Network adapter/Other device. It could be shown  as " TPLINK XX "  or " 802.11n/ac" or its chipset like " RTL/ RealteckXX" etc.

Hello   @Leo_Carlos 

If you only got one ethernet adapter, try  to temporarily disable Realtek Family controller and see if the current Ethernet connection interrupts, if so that is TG-3468 adapter.
