Additional subsystem IDs, which means additional devices. Nothing else.

Hello, can you please export all of the registry keys from your post?
For both power-saving support modes (enabled / disabled) and all of the key definitions mentioned ("PowerSavingMode", "*IdleRestriction").

I have manually installed the driver-only using the "Have Disk" option in Device Manager, and it looks like I am missing some key definitions.

Additional context:
I have recently purchased an AMD B650E motherboard, and have issues with it's "Intel Killer E3100G" network adapter (a rebrand of the "Realtek 8125B(G)" chip).
It has random connection dropouts. Simply decides to cut off the network connection by itself.
Sometimes it disconnects after an hour or two, sometimes after 4 hours; but it keeps happening sporadically.
Issue has been publicly reported years ago, but neither Intel nor Realtek seem to care to fix it properly.
I've tried both the latest official (Intel/Killer) driver package (.exe), and also force installing the latest Realtek drivers (power-saving mode off).

Both install methods have worked (I get connected to my network's LAN and WAN), but neither work for a longer duration, so I suspect that I am missing the "*IdleRestriction" registry key.

Thanks in advance 

Let me check, I need to switch to my PC and export the registry keys and clean up the file because some references are device specific.
I am using also the 8125B but on an MSI board and don't have these issues.

Have you tried to run the setup program, which resets the Network adapter.
I had a similar issue with an Intel WiFi device which didn't reach the full speed.
Running the setup program fixed it.
