I'm having a lot of trouble with my LAN connection. It seems to work fine most of the time, but when I play games or sometimes even when I'm just browsing, it crashes unexpectedly. For instance, when I try launching Lunar Client, the connection drops, and I can't even see the Family Control in Device Manager. When I finally do see it, there's an error code 10. Restarting my PC usually fixes the issue temporarily, but it breaks again when I use Lunar Client or occasionally in other games. I recently upgraded from Windows 10 to Windows 11, which worked for about a day before the problems returned.
My PC specs include a 500-watt power supply, an AMD Ryzen 5 3400 processor with Vega graphics, 16 GB of RAM, an AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT, and an MSI B550 A Pro motherboard. I've tried upgrading and downgrading the drivers, replaced my power supply, used both Windows drivers and the Realtek repair tool, and even reinstalled the device. I've also disabled all energy-saving options and set my energy settings to extreme performance, but nothing seems to help.

Have you tried swapping out your LAN cable? Also, is your connection coming straight from the wall jack or through a switch? Trying a different port on the switch might help too! Just a heads up, LAN should usually be pretty straightforward—no drivers should be required, especially with Windows 11.
I’ve faced a similar issue before! It sounds really frustrating. I suggest checking if there are any updates for your LAN adapter from the manufacturer’s website instead of just relying on Windows updates. Sometimes they have specific fixes that can help with those pesky network issues.
