Do you have a windows restore point to use, prior to this happening ?

Or you can check a setting in device manager for Network Adapter.
Scroll down the list for your "Network Adapter" and expand that topic open so that you can see the actual name of your Network Adapter. Highlight the Network adapter and double click it or right click on it and chose Properties.

Go to the Power Management (tab)
Remove the Check mark out of the box that says...

"Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power"

Click the OK button and restart the computer.

This is older way , but you get the idea
