For some reason there is no Network Infrastructure tab showing my router in the file explorer. Typically, you would go to your files and click the Network tab, which would show your PC, your router, and any connected devices, but the only thing that shows up is my PC? It was showing up yesterday, but I was messing with port-forwarding and now it's not showing up, I don't know if there is a correlation between the two, however. My internet connection (Ethernet) is completely fine by the way, the router is just not showing up. I am running Windows 10.

And I know I am going to get comments saying that I can access my router's properties through my router's website or through the Network and Sharing settings - I know this. But I specifically need the router via file explorer. I'm thinking the answer might have something to do with port-forwarding, but I honestly don't have a clue. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
