Rule of thumb: If reinstalling Windows doesnt solve your problem, its probably the mainboard.
(to take with a grain of salt)
"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

had it a few years ago with one of my two ethernet ports. one died after 2 years, other one worked well and the board too. never had any issues. so just grab a pci express ethernet card for a few bucks if it happens again

Not really fun investing in something IF the motherboard is dying, as bob is worried about.

This is when I love hairdryers
Remove board and heatsinks/plastic shit, heat with said item at 5-8 inches, back and front. Let the board get hot, but not so much that one cannot touch, spend a good 15 mins doing so, then let it cool (preferably overnight), then do same again, leave to cool.
Test. If same, then fucked, replace.
You have nothing to lose
