Hi.
I have been playing online games and have noticed that my internet buts out repeatedly when I try to play sometimes. I run ethernet through a powerline ethernet kit because my house is old and doesn't have ethernet in the walls and it has been doing fine for the most part. However sometimes I just randomly get dropped from skype calls and games sometimes for a while and the skype online icon sits on loading for a while. During this time, however, I can detect no issues with my connecting when running the troubleshooter. There is also no warning icon over the ethernet symbol on the task-bar. I suspect that there is something wrong with either my wires, my powerline kit, or my something in my computer but since I can still access the internet with my phone I don't believe it is my router. Before I go through the costly and time-consuming process of trying to figure out how to fix this problem I was wondering if I am able to get some insight into what might be going on. Thank you.
