Sure!

I don't see any connection available when I should see an ethernet connection and two WiFi connections (this is what I see on the same computer running a live Fedora). When I look at the 'Network Connections' window, I do see both the ethernet connection and the WiFi connection, but they are disabled and I can re-enable neither of them.

Actually, immediately after the Windows boot, the ethernet connection works for some tens of seconds then it disappears. It looks like some service or device is killed for some reason ...

Thank for your interest!

same computer running Windows insider and Linux Fedora.

have you tried reinstalling the drivers for your network adapters?

  By "same computer", I mean the same machine (a Dell XPS 13 9365) booted with a Fedora 31 workstation distribution installed on an external ssd on usb. No virtual machines. No Windows running.
