Ethernet troubles with MPG Z690 EDGE WIFI DDR4

[creeva159a02dd]

MSI MPG Z690 EDGE WIFI DDR4
Windows 11 Version 10.0.22000 Build 22000
Verizon Fios is provider

Am having issues with ethernet.
Internet connection intermittently fails when using ethernet.
System was working fine for a couple of months since assembly.
Problem started 2 days ago.
Most recent Windows updates were a week or so ago.
Problem continues after testing two other cat cables - one new and one older.
Same result on all three.

Wanted to update/reload my network drivers, but I do not see a download on the support page for my board for Windows 11...

MPG series motherboards offer colorful customization with MSI Mystic Light RGB and Ambient Link, tuned for better performance by direct 16 phases VRM power, Memory Boost, Lightning Gen5 solution, Premium Thermal Solution, Wi-Fi 6, USB 3.2 Gen 2x2

There is one for Windows 10, though.

Am I just overlooking it?
Or is the process different/irrelevant because this is Windows 11?
Is there anything else I can do to eliminate or identify the ethernet connection as the culprit of my connection woes?

Thank you for the help!

EDIT: Wi-Fi connection seems to work fine - only ethernet seems to be giving me trouble, but I've only recently switched over to Wi-Fi in desperation.

Try the latest LAN driver from Intel, this one is compatible with your ethernet controller I225-V: https://www.intel.com/content/www/u...1.html?wapkw=intel ethernet controller i225-v

After installation completes, go to Device Manager > Network adapters > I225-V > Properties > Advanced tab > ensure Speed & Duplex is set to Auto Negotiation.
