One day my PC decided to have these really bad dropouts, every 30 seconds the internet would drop out for about 10 seconds. I monitored this by running a ping "website" cmd command on both my PC and laptop (the dropouts only occurred on PC, laptop connection was consistent). So I figured I would try connecting through my laptop's wifi connection (via ethernet cable). This worked with the only issue being the very occasional ping spikes you get with wifi. I therefore concluded that the issue must be the lan wiring in my house (router is upstairs). So I bought a TP-Link TL-WDN4800 wireless adapter (PCI-e) for my PC. Plugged it in, fired it up, and my internet dropouts were still there (if not a little more common). I thought, fuck it lets see what happens when I connect to my laptop via wifi and use MyPublicWifi to make the laptop a wireless access point. Did it and it works perfectly (but the setup is not something I want to have in the long-term). I now have no idea what the issue is, would love some help!
TLDR; PC only seems to want to connect to the internet via my Laptop (which is connected via wifi).
