My wired internet connection on my computer keeps dropping every time I try to play a game that has some kind of online functionality. Once I quit the game, the internet reconnects after about half a minute.
The problem doesn't occur when I use WiFi. I've tried hard-resetting my router, updated the ethernet drivers and motherboard BIOS, and I've tried a different cable. I've also done a system restore to no avail.
The internet using the ethernet cable works perfectly otherwise, only disconnects when I start playing games (with online features).
The motherboard I'm plugging the cable into is an Asus p8z77-v, ethernet adapter is Intel 82579V.
Please help!
