If you have confirmed it is the NIC dropping and not the router , buying a new ethernet card is one solution
There is a few other things to try first though
Open a command prompt as administrator and type the following
netsh int ip reset
press Enter
then type
netsh winsock reset
Press Enter
also do the following
Right click on network icon in the taskbar and click "Open Network and Sharing Center"
Click "Change adapter settings"
Select the active/ connected network adapter and right click and select "Properties" (Should be Realtek 8111E)
Uncheck the box on the same line as Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6).
Click OK
Now repeat to get back this location again but this time click on the Configure button
Go to the Advanced Tab
Scroll down til you find "receive side scaling"
Select Disable
Ok all the way out and reboot and cross your fingers
Also just to confirm the driver you are now using is the WIn 10 driver version 10.0.0.7 listed at this link dated 23 Mar 2016
I tried all steps, and reinstalled the ethernet drivers to be sure they were correct, but it did not work anyway.
I will try and look at this a bit deeper when I get a chance but will take me a day i'm afraid
If I have anything further will let you know
If you have a wireless dongle you can plug into this PC and confirm it doesn't exist except under Ethernet is worthwhile to narrow this down to the NIC itself
