XIII Hero - Losing LAN connection

I'm frequently losing my LAN/Ethernet connection with the XIII Hero. Unplugging the Ethernet cable and re-plugging it usually restores the connection. I've tried reinstalling the LAN drivers but this continues.

Hello Zeoed85
Did you disable and enable LAN in bios? Did you replace ethernet cable? Did you try another port on the router/switch please?

Hello,

Both LAN ports are enabled in the BIOS. I recently replaced my ethernet cable with a brand new CAT6 cable. I wonder if the issue is related to the WFC firewall software I use. The software has an option called Secure Boot. What this does is block all network connections until the user manually enables them. The issue I have is once I've enabled the network connection through the software the connection doesn't start. I have to unplug and re-plug the ethernet cable to the motherboard LAN port to get the connection to start. I guess I could disable the software and see how the LAN behaves without it..
