I have tried the various troubleshooters that do not detect a problem, I have verified that the cable works on other computers, and the router is also fine. I have also tried to download drivers from the toshiba site, but the only one I could find for 8.1 for lan didn't seem to install correctly or have any noticeable effect.
A system refresh is probably not an option, since I was having issues with this since at least half a year ago. One day the ethernet stopped working and I just assumed that it was the shoddy tech where I had set up and didn't think anything of it until yesterday, where I realised that it was a problem. I don't remember when it started having problems though, I can only guess.
