What happens if you turn the WiFi off?

Could you give us the motherboard model. Try pinging google. Its the first step I always do to see if the network is down or acting funny. If you're willing to, bring up command prompt and type "ping www.google.com" and see if you get a connection or if it times out.

 

Power off, power on modem/router?

Go to the motherboard manufacturers website and download them.

 

Download to your phone and transfer via usb / use a laptop, whatever you have handy

How about the disk that came with your motherboard?

If you have a separate computer, you can copy the drivers to a flash drive and install it on your PC.
