Alright so here is my problem, I am getting disconnected from playing games almost every single night I'm talking about 320/365 days a year. The disconnection rarely exceeds a minute in time, it's so small that most of the time youtube videos still play because of the buffer. But things like Discord calls will drop out during this time. While it can happen at anytime this disconnection almost always happens somewhere between the hours of 1-5am. To try to solve this problem I have:1. Bought a new router2.

My PC takes minutes to get internet access after booting

From several weeks my PC (surface book 2 + windows 10) takes minutes to get internet access after booting, even if it's connected to the wi-fi immediately (the message "no internet access" is shown). After 1 or 2 minutes magically internet appears. It's
frustrating that windows takes 10 second to start but minutes to connect!!! I also tried to change DNS settings using Google's IP....but still not working...

Any suggestions? Thank you very much!
