Someone else will need to help you with the script, but have you tried
adjusting the power management properties of the network adapter yet?
If not, go to Device Manager and find the network adapter entry.
Double-click it to get its Properties. Look on the Power Management tab
and uncheck the box that says "Allow Windows to turn off this device
when not in use". Apply and OK out.
