Restart Ethernet network adapter

```
 
```
```
.DESCRIPTION
```

If run with elevated privileges, this script will disable the Ethernet network adapter on the local computer, wait for a specified number of seconds (default: 5), and then reenable the Ethernet network adapter; before and after each step the Ethernet network adapter's status is shown.

If run without elevated privileges, this script will only show the Ethernet network adapter's status.

```
 
```
```
.PARAMETER Delay
```

The number of seconds between disabling/enabling the network card and checking the new status

```
 
```
```
.PARAMETER Version
```
```
Show this script's version number.
```

If combined with -Verbose show full script path, version number and last/modified/release date.

.EXAMPLE
```
```
. './Restart_Ethernet.ps1'

```
 
```
```
Ethernet adapter status: Up
```
```
Ethernet adapter status: Disabled
