Hey guys whats up?

So i'll lay out all the information i can possibly come up with.
1. PC is brand spankin new(a few weeks), built myself as i always have.
2. Windows 10
3. Plugged directly into Router
4. When my connection gets interrupted no other devices suffer any issues

I possibly think it is due to this being my first MOBO with a killerNIC built in which i do not care for KillerNIC but thats what it had.


My Pc contains:

MSI MSI Gaming Z170A GAMING M5 LGA 1151 Intel Z170 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 ATX Intel Motherboard

MSI GAMING SLI BRIDGE (2-Way L) Model 2WAY SLI Bridge L

2x MSI GeForce GTX 970 GAMING 100ME

G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2133 (PC4 17000) Intel Z170 Platform / Intel X99 ...

2x Mushkin Enhanced Reactor 2.5" 512GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MKNSSDRE512GB

Western digital - wd1002f9yz

Intel Boxed Core I7-6700 FC-LGA14C 3.40 GHz 8 M Processor Cache 4 LGA 1151 BX80662I76700

CORSAIR Enthusiast Series CMPSU-850TX 850W ATX12V v2.2 / EPS12V v2.91 SLI Certified CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Power Supply

So a quick description of what happens. I turn on my pc, it reaches the desktop and i immediately open chrome and start browsing which works fine. Then about 30-60 seconds later, i get connection interrupted for about a minute then the internet finally comes alive again on my PC. This isn't necessarily a huge deal, but an annoyance and i'm more curious about how i can go about finding the problem and fixing what's causing it than i am annoyed by it. I enjoy fixing problems and i usually do everything myself but this one problem i can't nail down. I've looked daily for solutions with no answers or hints to help me in the right direction.

Hopefully you guys can help! Thanks a ton.



 


i would check both, system and application log. look for events around the time the problem occurs.
 


Well i use windows defender as my security because its pretty good really. And i have not ever had this problem on any of my other computers so i am just perplexed by this.
 


so the errors i have found are

under application:
warnings:
The rules engine reported a failed VL activation attempt.
Reason:0xC004F074

then under system i have:
Miniport TAP-Windows Adapter V9 #32, {bc1f6820-41b2-4e01-834e-7823880dd30c}, had event 76

and well now i think i may have found the solution. Apparently Microsoft Office 2013 uses a TAP adapter to verify that its authenticated. So, i believe when it was doing this, since i already have a network adapter and like 32 TAP adapters it was turning off my internet, making a new adapter and then letting my internet turn back on. So now i have uninstalled all of the adapters and we'll see what happens.
