Network randomly drops

Hi All,
I'm having some issues with my Network.
My internet for my PC is dropping but the network is still connected, although I cannot ping the router.
I have it connected to the router with with powerline adapters.

I've tried new powerline adapters,
New network card
New cables,
I've taken off my firewall software or tried other software
Static IP
New DNS address
Rebooting PC & Router
Malware and VIrus scans

...nothing has helped.

Everytime it drops I can bring it back again by just disabling the adapter and then enabling the card.

I'm trying to find a reason as to why it keeps dropping out and i thought it only dropped out while i was watching YouTube or Netflix but i've recently found that not to be the case.

I don't really want to switch to WiFi as the signal seems to interfere my wireless mouse/keyboard.

Any ideas as to what the problem could be?

Thanks.

MB: asus m4a79xtd evo which has a Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller with the latest drivers.

I've just tried a wifi dongle but once again my connection would drop out again.
I still can't find any pattern to when it's dropping out as I could be reading forums or watching youtube, it doesnt seem to matter.
I have noticed it drops out more when streaming a video though.
