Hello,
Basically, I feel as though I must be doing something wrong. I'm currently using my second custom-built computer, and as always, I have issues with internet connections.
Basically, the issues go something like this
-Connections works when I turn on the computer
-After some time (an hour, more or less), connection becomes unreliable.
-Connection becomes so slow that it is almost useless, then, it may stop working entirely
Also, restarting it doesn't always solve the issue. Sometimes, after it gets all problematic, a reset will only cause it to work for a few minutes, then the connection will go to hell again and become essentially useless.
I would like to take the time to say it is almost CERTAINLY NOT MY ROUTER that is the issue. I've had this problem in different households, different routers, connected via ethernet cable, and even connected to my mobile hotspot, and I've still experienced the same issues after a while. I've tried swapping wireless cards, using a wireless USB adapter, etc. The problem persists. The only thing I can think of is that I'm using components that conflict with each other in some odd way.
General SPECS:
Windows 10 Home 64-bit
AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Six-Core Processor
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660
16GB RAM
MSI B450 Gaming Plus Motherboard
TP-Link Wireless N PCI Express Adapter
AVAST Premium antivirus (disabling this doesn't seem to change anything)
WD HDD
I have double checked for loose plugins and outdated drivers by checking for updates through the device manager. I haven't used any third-party driver updaters as I don't trust them. I've also done a fresh reinstall of Windows.
Do you have any weird tricks? Something someone else might not think of?
