Hi

Please help.

Been struggling with this problem for a few weeks now.
After I start my desktop I can use the internet normally but when i leave it to idle for 1-2 min, it just times out till i restart. Even if I start streaming it keeps working till it idles again.
I have 4 devices connected on my network, 2 mobile and 2 via ethernet. I am only having this problem with the 1 pc. I have even freshly reinstalled windows 10, reset my dns and updated network drivers
I do have sattelite internet though, dont think it is why though.

First try another known working Ethernet cable. Make sure both ends are fully and securely plugged in.

Any wall jacks, power-line adapters, etc. being used?

Verify that the desktop is not timing out the network adapter via some power saving setting.

You can look in Event Viewer and check for any informational events, warnings, or error codes that precede or occur just before the time outs happen.

Is the desktop's network adapter built into the motherboard or some USB or PCIe adapter?

In either case ensure that the adapter is likewise fully and securely in place.

Update or refresh the drivers. Download the drivers via the network adapter's manufacturer's website - not from...
