Whatever is going on it sounds like it is killing the network connection on your pc and not your actual network. That is why all devices are unreachable from the pc however any other devices on the network should be able to access the NAS for example. Taking your word for it and assuming that it is something iffy with windows 8.1, rather than trying to work out what the problem is which is a lot of time and effort, the easiest and most beneficial solution for you would be to installed Windows 10. It took me 6 mins (clean installation) and then you just need to install your progs and stuff afterwards.
