ERROR_NDIS_GROUP_ADDRESS_IN_USE

ERROR_NDIS_GROUP_ADDRESS_IN_USE The requested group-address removal cannot complete because another component still uses the address. This is a shared-configuration ownership problem in legacy token ring support.

What to check

  • Track which component acquired the group address and do not remove it while references remain.
  • Coordinate cleanup during unbind and reset paths so reference counts cannot underflow.
  • Treat the condition as a local ownership conflict rather than a general network connectivity failure.
