The Realtek network controller could not be located when deep sleep mode is active.
I own a Ryzen 5 5600x, ROG 6700xt, GIGABYTE Aorus b550M Pro-p, and an EVGA Bronze power supply. The problem began when I tried to boot my PC for a short gaming session. The Ethernet connection failed. I attempted several fixes—restarting the computer, reinstalling LAN drivers, verifying all ports and connectors. The only odd occurrence was a pop-up message after downloading the LAN driver from the provided link. I suspect the issue might be linked to that download rather than hardware faults. There’s also a network adapter entry in my Device Manager (the top one is the temporary connection I’m using).
