Disable/Enable network interface using PowerShell

Windows 10 update 1511 sometimes losses connection inside a VirtualBox(5.0.16) VM. Mostly it happens after the host machine recovers from sleep or hibernate. Workaround I have observed so far is to disable/enable the interface. This can get boring overtime, so below is the PowerShell script that I use to automate it.

	$nic = Get-NetAdapter -Name 'O'
	"Disabling nic"
	$nic | Disable-NetAdapter -Confirm:$false
	"Enabling nic"
	$nic | Enable-NetAdapter

Note that O is the name of my network adapter.
