Windows 10: Can't stay connected to the internet

Hello,

I got a new PC about a month ago, and it's been smooth sailing until three days ago. Suddenly after I turned on my computer, it began telling me I was connected to my network, but there was no internet. Sometimes it stays connected to the internet for 20 minutes, and then the internet will disappear again. While it wont stay connected to the router, every other device I have has no issue with it, and my computer is still able to connect consistently with hot spots without dropping every few minutes like it does with the router.


I was on the phone with Microsoft for a while, and they had me update all my drivers, did a hard reset on my computer, restored the computer to a previous date, reset the router, and nothing is working. I also called my internet provider, and they can't send anyone out to take a look because of covid. I was advised to get an ethernet cable instead of using my antennas to connect to the wifi, but I'm desperately seeking a solution to the problem itself.

Thank you in advance for any advice!

:)

 

Is it possible to share internet connection via remote desktop?

RDP is not capable of Internet sharing, so you can't share Internet using RDP with standard applications. There are many way to share Internet from a Windows box to another one. I suggest you to use VPN. You should do following steps:

1. Run VPN Server on your server with unlimited internet access
   
2. Connect to VPN server from your limited computer
