So after doing some digging, I found out that for Win 10 you have to be using Driver v2.1.0.26 which was released in 2016. Located the driver on this website:
The Qualcomm Atheros AR8171/8175 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller (NDIS 6.20) device has one or more Hardware IDs, and the list is listed below. HWDrivers.com can always find a driver for your computer's device. Drivers and data for Qualcomm Atheros AR8171/8175 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller (NDIS 6.20) (PCI VEN_1969&DEV_10A1), as made by Atheros. Nov 26, 2017 I have a NIC ethernet version qualcomm atheros ar8171/8175 pci-e gigabit ethernet controller. The gigabit ehternet is not seen under device manager or does not show any internet connection. Completely it has gone away from window 8.1 64bit. I did check the box under device manager that says SHOW hidden devices.

UPDATE 10/2/2017
Scratch that, it worked fine last wk and when I logged in this morning, stopped working all over again. Back to square one....
Just wondering if this hardware is even compatible with windows 10 at this point.
After a line of rumors and leaks, Nvidia has officially introduced its latest powerful graphics card, codenamed GeForce GTX 780 Ti. Thanks to the implementation of a full-fledged GK110 core and the increase of clock frequencies, the card is going to compete with GTX Titan model, as well as with a top-tier Radeon R9 290X from AMD. In view of such efficiency, its recommended price goes up to $700.

The GeForce GTX 780 Ti is equipped with GK110 GPU that contains 2880 stream processors (GTX Titan features 2688 of them), 7.1 billion transistors, 48 ROPs, and 240 TMUs with the support for FP16/FP32 trilinear filtration. The core operates at 875 MHz (nominal) and 928 MHz (overclocked) frequencies. All major components are allocated on a black PCB, equipped with PCI Express 3.0 x16 bus. The incorporated GDDR5 modules with 384-bit interface (overall capacity – 3 GB) run at 7008 MHz with the bandwidth of 336 Gb/sec.
