Windows 7 Unidentified Network, no network access, need help trouble shooting.

[Vainisto]

I'm using Windows 7 64 bit. My computer came out of sleep mode on friday without internet access. I immediately placed a support request with my network provider (I live at a university) but they have yet to respond. In the meantime, I'm treating the issue as though it's originating with my system and not theirs.

I've tried updating my network adapter driver, reinstalling the adapter, disabling services like Bonjour, restoring my system, entering safe-mode, releasing/renewing my ip, malware detection, disabling tunneling adapters, disabling IPv6. Finally, I lost my mind and tried a full reinstall of windows. The problem persists, unchanged.

After looking at the attached information and screenshots, is there anything else that you would suggest I try?

Is that computer an OEM or a self build?

If it is an OEM ensure that you are installing the correct drivers for the right make and model of the PC and also check that you are istalling the right drivers for the right OS (Which should be Windows 7 64 bit in your case)

Also you mention no network access. Can you access network resources if any are available to you?

Do you have any of the basic IP information as far as a Default gateway, Subnet Mask and possible IP address for your unit. I would try entering those manually and if it reconnects, set it back to Auto.

Try this. Go here Realtek download the driver that says

Win7 and WinServer 2008 R2 Driver 7.048 2011/9/19

Use 7-Zip or your preferred archive extractor to uncompress the archive to a new folder on your desktop and use device manager to manually install the driver.
Expand Network adapters, select then right click the problem adapter, choose properties, select the driver tab, then the update driver button, Browse my computer, let me pick, have disk, browse, then find the folder where you have extracted the download file.
