This has been extremely frustrating as I'm not very good at dealing with/understanding networking problems so hopefully there is a simple solution to this.
Starting a few days ago, my internet connection on my PC would just consistently cut out for 10-30 seconds at a time at random intervals of around 10 minutes without fail. This PC has never experienced any problems like this and it is almost brand new as I just assembled it in September this year. Even as I'm writing this it is constantly cutting out and coming back on. What a pain! None of my other devices that use my wifi ever drop connection and this is what confuses me even more. This includes my phone, laptop and another PC in the home. Here are some of the key specs of my PC hopefully they are relevant to you and can aid you in solving this. I can obviously provide any extra details you may need:
Motherboard: MSI CSM-H87M-G43 mATX LGA1150
Power Supply: Thermaltake TR2 600W
I use a PCIe wireless adapter: TP-Link TL-WDN4800 Dual Band Wireless N900
Windows 10
The router used in my home is Netgear AC1450
When the connection drops, it doesn't show up on the connection symbol on the bottom right corner in windows. I notice drops when webpages stop loading, streams stop buffering and cut out, games lose connection and end, the list goes on. I have tried rebooting my modem, router and PC multiple times, I have tried un-checking the "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" option under device manager. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers for the network adapter and PCIe adapter in device manager. Nothing is working. I would really appreciate any and all help.
Thank you
