When the connection doesn't work, right-click it and click Status |
Support | Details. What are the values that it shows?

When the connection doesn't work, right-click it and click Repair.
Does that fix the problem? If not, what exactly happens?

If repairing the connection doesn't help, open the Network Connections
folder, disable the LAN connection, and then enable it. Does that fix
the problem? If not, what exactly happens?

Please note that we only know as much about the problem as you tell
us.
