Hello everyone. I am experiencing an odd issue.
My ethernet connection will drop for a few minutes at a time. I have tried three different cords and yet it still drops occasionally, about twice a day. I cannot find ANY pattern in when or why it drops.
When it goes out, it takes about 60 seconds before Windows says the connection is dropped. But I know it drops when stuff stops loading. Then it switches to my USB wireless connection. Then that works until the Ethernet connection comes back up. But it still will disconnect me from my game, my call, or whatever website I am on, losing my data. A few times, stuff will stop loading so I unplug the cord before windows realizes it stopped, and switches to wireless almost seamlessly.
What baffles me is that this has happened over three different cords. One old, one a cheap Chinese one from online, and another that has proved to function correctly from work.
I have been unable to see if this issue is on multiple devices, since I am the only one who uses the Ethernet.
I can see my Router and Modem, and they do not lose connection or go down during this. They aren't the best but I get 50 MB/s throughout.
