Windows 10: ethernet connections lost

hello,


i have been having this problem lately where my ethernet connections dissapears, and my laptop (asus X751LN) switches to a wireless connections. this is happening quite regularally the past weeks. i dont understand what is making my laptop do this, or is it perhaps just the cable? (we just moved to this house, and the previous owners left this cable here becouse it's quite long and runs through the whole house). if anyone has an idea, it would be most appreciated!

:)
