Hi, so not long after getting my PC put together I started having issues with internet connection, on bootup my PC, more often that not woudn't connect to the internet, despite the cable being connected properly at both ends and the wifi being fine, it was as if there was no way for it to connect. What has fixed it however is opening the BIOS UEFI settings on bootup first.
However I'd still have issues with the connection where, usually if I booted up an online game or started streaming, the connection would sporadically break, this usually got fixed either by unplugging the Ethernet cable from the PC and plugging it back in, or restarting the router, though these did not always work and sometimes I'd just have to wait for it to decide to work properly. It's been very obstructive.
Initially I thought it was bad Wifi, I'd not long changed providers, but the wifi was fine, just the PC, I've updated the Motherboards drivers and checked to see if I can update the network drivers in device manager, but they're up to date. today I found a command prompt on Reddit that had fixed a lot of Wifi connectivity woes and tried it, but still didn't fix it (will post below)
Anyone got any ideas as to what the problem is and how to fix it? I'll post PC parts in case its a power supply issue though I've upgraded several parts over the years and haven't noticed any change in frequency of the problems
Thanks.
