My Ethernet port stopped working a couple weeks back so i had to buy Usb one from amazon. Now everytime i try to watch a video it immediately cuts off my connection, identifies and then reconnects on its own but it does it every couple of seconds as I'm watching the video. Should i try to buy a new USB ethernet adapter or is it something else?

Have you checked for the latest drivers for the adapter?

It could be just a poorly designed adapter that can't handle the bandwidth. Without knowing the make and model, it would be hard to say for sure. You might consider purchasing a different and highly rated make/ model of adapter.
