We have been experiencing a similar problem across many machines.
The only thing that seems to stop the issue is to disable the avast firewall from the template applied to machines from the portal.
The machines which have lost network connectivity require avast to be completely uninstalled with the avastclean utility and reinstalled without the firewall enabled.
Please can avast look into this issue with the firewall component as we are running machines without their firewall and using windows firewall instead to resolve this problem
