Unidentified Network/valid IP configuration: both Ethernet and WiFi
Before I bring this computer in, I'll try one last shot with posting on forums rather than just reading them.
I've tried just about everything I can think of to google, and coming to those more literate in hopes that I've missed something in my travels. Though I've tried all the usual suspects, setsh and all the rest, I'm fine with re-trying everything from the beginning as well.
Here's the specs and the answers to some common questions:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>
IP addresses are set to connect automatically for both IPv4 and 6.
Antivirus disabled.
Network adapters uninstalled and autofound.
When attempting to install latest Realtek drivers, the following message appears: Realtek Network Controller was not found.
Says the driver is installed but it is the same version as before.
When running Realtek's diagnostic utility, the following error appears: Fail set
Operates normally, except when clicking on Microsoft Wi-Fi Direct Virtual Adapter #2, which causes it to display Fail Set again and reset the program.
I admit I don't know what Microsoft Wi-Fi Direct Virtual Adapter #2 or Wireless LAN adapter Local Area Connection* 4 refer to.
Asus UX305F laptop running Windows 10 x64. Becomes quite warm since the problem, maybe due to trying to connect. Used to run extremely cool so it is a noticeable difference.
I tried a bunch of other things as well, but clearly I'm just missing something here, so might as well start from the beginning.

Thanks for any guidance you can give.
