As of recent, my PC has started to play up with the internet. On most startups, it connects fine. I'll get into a game or start watching YouTube and all of a sudden it'll disconnect itself. Sometimes, it recovers and connects again within a matter of seconds. This occurs once every 10-15 minutes. To fix this, I currently use the windows troubleshooting option for the network, and it always fixes it by "resetting the network adapter". I recently installed a program called Port Forwarder and switched my IP to static to host a server for a game, however, I have switched back to a dynamic IP.
I've also checked that my WiFi is not going down by testing with other devices.
