Right click the Windows start button > Device Manager > Network adapters > Right click and uninstall all devices > Reboot your PC.

Pro tip: Have your motherboard LAN and WIFI (If applicable) drivers downloaded in case you need them.

You will not uninstall "Device managers".. you will uninstall the LAN drivers, doing this will make sure it is not a driver issue (which it most likely is).

Reset your router, unplug the router from power for about 1 minute then plug it back in.

Can you share the "ipconfig" command output?

^This

Press Windows key+S on your keyboard and type CMD, then run the ipconfig command.

Set the Network type to Private, not Public.
Then reboot the system, or disable the network adapter, wait 30 secs, and then re-enable it.
