Hello,
So on my desktop computer, the Internet keeps dropping out and saying "connected, no internet" which means that I cannot do anything online - very annoying.
I have a sky SR102 router and a custom built PC which has worked pretty much absolutely fine for the last couple of years however just the other day it started randomly cutting out and I have no idea why.
Both wired and wireless are doing this however all the other devices are working on this network so it should just be the computer (except for a wireless extender we have where it only ever says no internet and nothing can connect to it).
I am currently performing a full system scan but I doubt it should be viruses (any things possible though I guess).
Does anyone know what could possibly be happening?
Thanks!

You internet adapter on the mobo might have started to fail. That's what it sounds like to me at least. If you have a PCI-E internet adapter, try mounting that in your mobo and run your internet through that instead.
