    Cannot connect to the Internet


    Hello. I've been having issues with my PC, and recently it's been getting severe.

    I got my Alienware pc from a friend. I don't know much about it, but it's about 6 years old. It is using Windows 10.


    In the past, it would occasionally lose connection to the internet (not wifi) and reseting the router would not fix it. But it would always reconnect in an hour and it'd be fine.


    Lately, however, it has been much worse. It loses connection for days at a time. Here is what I have tried(that has not worked):

    -Reseting the TCP using netsh commands

    -Turning off the router

    -Updating the drivers

    -Disabling the windows defender firewall

    (No other antivirus software I know of)

    -Disabling power saver

    -Reinstalling the network adapter

    -Network reset


    I cannot use an ethernet cable, my router is two floors down and I have nowhere else to put my pc.


    Setting the preferred and alternate DNS servers to (8.8.8.8) and (8.8.4.4) did work, and the PC was okay for about 12 hours. But it lost connection again and changing them back does nothing.


    It's not the router or ISP, at least it shouldn't be, my brother's pc is fine, and my phone also still connects! Please help!

    :)
