Basically when I boot up my computer the internet is fine for approximately 30 minutes however then it says that there is limited connectivity, if I try to solve this problem through diagnostics it says the Ethernet cable is disconnected (Which it isn't), I've tried creating a static IP address as well as ipconfig /release and renew

The adapter is Qualcomm Atheros AR8161 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller (NDIS 6.30)
And the driver is up to date
Furthermore other devices still connect to the router fine

Ah, Windows 10. That is where the issue lies.

I was not aware that there was a new driver set for that card, and the older driver did not work for many users AFAIK. I would try installing them again in compatibility mode or replace your card for $28 with THIS Intel card that does support Windows 10.
Before we get started... have you tried another cable see if this issue stops? Other wise we and I need more information to help.

*MS windows version
*What driver did you install or did windows update it?
*Brand model of computer

Thnaks

I found this out after a bit of digging, but do you happen to know a safe website to download drivers from? Thanks for all the help :)
