Windows Network adaptor disable enable via Powershell - powershell

Question

My network card is rubbish and until I get a new one I need a quickfix. My idea was to have a program ping my router and when the ping failed 3 or 4 times, it would reset the network adaptor for my wifi card, however I do not know the command line commands to do this!
I found the following in a stackoverflow question:
$adaptor = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_NetworkAdapter | Where-Object {$_.Name -like "*Wireless*"}
$adaptor.Disable()
$adaptor.Enable()
However to run this the script needs to be running under admin privileges and I do not know how to fix that without manually launchign powershell to execute the script

This post shows how to elevate PowerShell scripts to Administrator access:
Elevate Powershell scripts
To do it, you create a scheduled task (without a set schedule), and set it to run elevated. Then, give your users rights to execute that task. This blog post describes the process in more detail:

In addition, here is a blog post that goes over the Win32_NetworkAdapter class, and how to use it in PowerShell, in detail:
