I am trying to connect my PC to the internet since I replaced the motherboard and everything screws me up. Connecting through WiFi or LAN disables wifi from all other devices. I don't know why that happens.

You probably need to reconfigure your network adapter to match your home network.

My thought is that you have an IP address conflict and/or some misconfigured network adapter setting.

First be certain that only one of the motherboard's network adapters (either wired or wireless) is enabled.

For the moment disable wireless and focus on getting wired to work. Be sure that you have a known working Ethernet cable and that the cable is properly connected on both ends: i.e., PC to Router [LAN port].

Who manages your home network? You will need to work with that person to properly configure your wired network adapter and then, later, do the same if you chose to connect wirelessly.

A quick start would be to run the built-in Windows 10 Network Troubleshooter.

Then, are you able to run and post the results of "ipconfig /all" (without quotes) via the command prompt?

The posted results will provide some useful information about your PC's adapters and current network configuration settings.
