Hello, first time using Tom's so apologies in advance if I haven't supplied enough information!
A few weeks ago my connection began cutting out after starting my PC from sleep mode, displaying a yellow triangle in the taskbar. To reconnect I need to crawl under my desk, unplug the ethernet cable for 5~ seconds and then plug it back in. Strangely enough this doesn't happen every time I start the computer from sleep mode, though the odds are higher if I leave it in sleep mode for longer periods of time.
To add to the confusion the yellow triangle sometimes appear on its own while I'm using the computer, disconnecting me the same way that sleepmode does. This happens about once a day at most and requires me to replug the cable two times before it starts working again.
I've attempted to

I live in a student corridor apartment so I have no control over anything beyond the ethernet outlet in my wall; the only thing I've connected is my computer however.

I've attempted to
■ Uncheck the "Allow this computer to turn this device off to save power" box for the network adapter in Device Manager
■ Disable Energy-Efficient Internet under Advanced for the network adapter in Device Manager
■ Update the network adapter drivers (and even tried some old ones just in case)
■ Try the ipconfig /renew and /flushdns commands
■ Disable and re-enable the antivirus (Avast)
■ Diagnose with the windows network diagnose tool (Gave me a "Default Gateway not available")
