[SOLVED] My internet connection drops to 0kbps often for an instant and disconnects me from everything but then goes back to normal

[dukea88]

hello. I have a Dell G3 and I am experiencing an issue where my internet connection drops to 0, disconnects me from everything, and then goes back to full speed..

It looks like this:

I have gotten a USB internet receiver to try to combat the bad intel internet stuff but this is happening to the point where my pc is unusable.

Appears to me that connectivity is being lost somewhere. Physical connection loss or perhaps wireless interference.

More information is needed.

Update your post to include full system hardware specs and OS information.

Make and model network adapters? Make and model information for modem and router? Or modem/router if combined.

Do any other network devices experience internet connection drops?

Is the graph from the original network adapter (wired or wireless) or from the new USB network adapter (wired or wireless)?

Do ensure that only one network adapter - either wired or wireless - is enabled at one time. Not both adapters.

On your Dell G3 run "ipconfig /all" via the Command Prompt. Post the results.
