When I boot up the computer, the network adapter is disabled, why is this happening?

[Windows Central Question]

When I boot up the computer, the network adapter is disabled.

It seems to happen when I have had the computer shut off for several days. Lenovo support keeps going in and reinstalling the driver but it keeps happening. Is anyone else having this problem?

What Lenovo product are you using?

What version of Windows are you running?

I had a similar problem on my Toshiba. I uninstalled the most recent driver and it fixed the problem. I kept it that way for months and this week I noticed there were new drivers, and they seem to be fine now.
