Win10 - Internet connection randomly disappears?

4

My desktop intermittently loses connection to the Internet.

Symptoms:

There's no internet connection at indefinite intervals (between 2 and 10 minutes). After about 20 seconds it works again.
Only my desktop is affected.
Notebook, television, RasPi, smartphone have no problems.

Set up:

Desktop → Cable → Switch → Cable → Router
Notebook → cable → switch → cable → router
TV → Wi-Fi → router
RasPi → Cable → Switch → Cable → Router
RasPi2 → Wi-Fi → Router

As I said, I was only able to determine it on the desktop.

Done so far:

I once ran a "ping 8.8.8.8 >> log.txt" on both the desktop and a Rasp Pi over a longer period of time. Desktop gets timeouts (through disconnects), Rasp Pi does not.

Network adapter driver uninstalled and reinstalled.
Power management for network adapter, computer can switch off the device, deactivated

Nothing brings any improvement.

Perhaps your swarm intelligence still has tips and possible solutions.

Deactivating the onboard LAN and replacing it with a PCIe x1 LAN card costs 10 euro

that sounds like a bad LAN chip on the board

But you can simply start a counter test via live Linux or Win, if the network runs without problems, then you have a more serious one in your win system

I've run an Ubuntu2004 Live for an hour, surfed the net, played YouTube videos.

No failures. Windows seems to be broken internally.

Oha

I was afraid…

take a look, for example, via Google, there are some articles from MS itself to repair something… Otherwise maybe create DaSi and try the restore point a few weeks ago…

I'll keep that in mind!

It's been running since I got the live system on.

It could be that the driver software somehow had a crack and was reconfigured by the live system.

Apparently I didn't uninstall the driver properly.
