Relaktek PCIe GBE Family Controller randomly disconnects
I am using a Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller on my motherboard for ethernet, and it randomly, with no rhyme or reason, disconnects from the network, at least once every few hours. It works again when I disable and reenable it, but it's extremely aggravating whenever it happens. I've tried using multiple versions of the driver, and I have tried disabling any sort of "Green" and "Energy Efficient" features (including "Advanced EEE"). Nothing has changed what's going on. I'm currently running 10.16.323.2017, but I've also run 10.1.505.2015 and 9.1.406.2015 versions of the driver.
I've also unchecked "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power."
