My configuration is "Cisco EPC 3925 coax cable modem" + "35 m UTP CAT5e cable (plastic connectors)" + "Marvell Yukon 88E8071 ethernet card" and the connection drops when a tank-less gas water heater or an electric oven starts, but gets reconnected 1-2 s afterwards.
No connection drops on WiFi.
The heater, oven, and modem are all in separate rooms and quite apart from each other. The flat contains mainly 2 prong outlets. UTP cable runs close to the electric meter and parallel to the flat's power lines along 2 m and at a distance of 10 cm.
I checked, if it makes any difference by distancing the UTP cable more from the power lines, but without luck.
I tried disabling energy efficient ethernet (and or green energy) and wake on magic packet, but that doesn't help.
I tried replacing my ethernet card with "Lenovo P24h-2L Realtek RTL8153" and "ThinkPad universal USB-C dock 40AY0090EU", but that doesn't help.
I tried to run my laptop on battery only, but that doesn't help.
I check connection drops by following command "ping -t 8.8.8.8".
There is no connection drops with following configuration "Cisco EPC 3925 coax cable modem" + "35 m UTP CAT5e cable (plastic connectors)" + "TP-Link WR740N v2.5 router" + "5 m FTP CAT6 cable (metal connectors)" + "Marvell Yukon 88E8071 ethernet card".
What can I do to prevent connection drops without additional TP-Link router, and what magic does the TP-Link router to keep the connection alive?
