So i bought this motherboard off newegg from here

The main problem is that the internet does not stay connected. It will usually work for about an hour or so then it will all of a sudden just stop working and I have to restart my computer to get it to work again. I have never had this problem with any other motherboard (I have tested multiple motherboards with everything else the same). All other devices in my household are working as intended.

I ended up getting this MOBO over a month ago and I had the same problem as I do now. So I sent it back and just received the new one. The thing is that it is still doing the same thing. Which makes me think it is most likely something on my end. I have tried reinstalling the network drivers, then i tried a different driver and still nothing.

I am just stuck. I have no clue what to do in this situation. Any help would be much appreciated. I am getting to the point where it is not worth my time to try and fix this. If i can't get this to work i am probably gonna have to send it back and see if I can get my money back (which is a pain in the ass).

PS. When the Internet disconnects it goes to that Yellow triangle down in the bottom right on my taskbar.

PPS. I am using Windows 7. and have 4up and 60down internet

I have two computer hooked up the router and the other one is perfectly fine. The one though is the only device in the entire house this happens to and it seems to only be with that motherboard.

I have yet to try switching the cables but i can do it. The thing is though I have used that same cable on another computer for years with out a single problem.

this was to check at the same time the lan port on the router if you could interchange your with the other computer in the router .

I just hooked it up to the other ethernet cord. Not expecting it to last longer than an hour. I will let you know when if and when it fails.

From what I can tell the new ethernet cord is working. I don't really understand why. I actually would like to know if someone can explain it to me but thank you Scout_03 for the fix.
