Ethernet failure, no changes

Hey guys, so I've had Mojave 10.14 working on my mini-itx z390 I Aorus pro wifi board for a couple weeks now. Everything is great, bluetooth works, USB 3.1 works, sleep functions normally. Really happy with it. It's a 19,1 build (because of h264 codec troubles on 18,3 & 18,1) and I'm using intelmausiethernet.

Yesterday, in the middle of a YouTube video, the ethernet stopped working. Naturally I assumed the storm had taken down our internet, but it was still working on my macbook and wifi worked on my phone. I restarted a few times. Recovered my build from my backup and checked my EFI but nothing!

In my network settings it will bounce between "ethernet connected" & "disconnected" seemingly at random. If I renew my DHCP license it briefly brings ethernet back but nothing loads. I checked in the BIOS and it says disconnected as well.

I switched out cables and changed ports on the router. I don't have wifi to test with unfortunately. The fact that it failed in the middle of the day, not after a restart or update or anything like that is confusing.

Has anyone run into this?
