My internet connection has lately been really unstable, I tried refreshing the connection by typing "ipconfig /renew" into my CMD [along with a few other commands... I used this //www.wikihow.com/Refresh-Your-IP-Address-on-a-Windows-Computer]. But it gave me an error saying

Note, it says "No operation can be performed on Local Area Connection* 3 while it has its media disconnected." I'm no networking expert, but that does sound like a problem to me. Does anybody know what's going on? Here's what pops up when I use the "ipconfig /all" command:
