  1. My internet on my PC will disconnect randomly and only on this device.


    I have had this issue persistently for years. When I am at school on ethernet it goes away. When I am at home for school breaks it happens frequently. Wether I use the WiFi on the motherboard or I use an ethernet cord to connect to my eero. I have a Windows 10 PC with an ASUS Z370-G WiFi. I have read and tried many solutions on different forums. I have replaced my Realtek 8822BE that comes stock on my motherboard with an Intel 9260 as this forum suggests https://rog-forum.asus.com/t5/asus-software/rog-strix-z370-g-gaming-wifi-pc-wifi-problems/td-p/882973 . I have tried changing the device

  2. Internet Randomly Disconnects: Ethernet Network Adapter Keeps Disconnecting

    My internet keeps randomly disconnecting throughout the day. Its a Dell (Windows 10Pro 22H2 - Dell Precision 5770) with Network Adapter: Realtek USB Gbe Family Controller Ethernet. I tried these steps below, no resolution yet:

    One thing I noticed, everytime the internet randomly disconnects, I go to Device Manager, and notice the Realtek Network Adapter has totally disappeared from the list (with no option to reenable, even after finding it in Hidden devices).

    I have to go through these two steps in this order to bring back internet.

    1. Restart Computer
    2. and then Restart Modem Router. ( I do restart modem by unplugging/plugging back in).
    If the ethernet disconnects, Restarting the Modem won't work. Neither will Restarting Computer work. It has two be those two steps above in that specific order. I'm curious if having this resolution path, to understand why ethernet adapter disappears. If you can help target or specify why its occurring?

    Already attempted this: and the problem still continues

    1. Updated Dell Drivers
    2. Windows Update
    3. Network Adapter Troubleshooter

    4. (a) Network Reset and (b) tried manually uninstalling/reinstalling network drivers separately

    5. Tried manually downloading the software drivers at Realtek website Oops!
    6. Replace cable just in case, but the other computer in home does not have internet randomly disconnect
    7. Tried:
    1. Disable these three in Device Manager: (a) Energy Efficient Internet (b) Green Ethernet (c) Wake on Magic Packet
    I use the modem with another computer, and no issues whatsoever, until I got a new computer.

    Note: this is different from previous question, since its looking at a problem/diagnosis path, rather power management settings.

    My PC keeps randomly disconnecting from the internet

    My PC keeps randomly disconnecting from the internet. Every 10 or so minutes I have to go to the Wi-Fi settings, disconnect it and reconnect to get my internet back. I've been looking for a solution for a few days to no avail. This is
    definitely NOT an internet issue since it ONLY happens to the PC, no other devices. Answers blaming it on my internet is incorrect as it only happens to my computer and not our TV Streming/other computers in the household/Tablets. I have tried
    Troubleshoot network problems etc. This all only started after a Microsoft Windows Update that i completed on 7/28/2020 (just a few days ago). Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you

    Also, I did the chkdsk C: /F /R but it didn't do anything.

    It got stuck at 21% every single time and when ever I restart my PC it constantly starts scanning. Not sure how to stop it.
