    network adapter keeps disconnecting after Windows 11 24H2 update, especially when playing...


    Ever since late October 2024, I have been having issues with the network adapter Realtek 8822CE Wireless LAN constantly disconnecting, resulting in either a "can't connect to this network" error when trying to reconnect to WiFi network, or the Wi-Fi option completly disapearing from both settings and device manager, and this only gets fixed after restarting my laptop several times. This seems to happen most consistently when playing video games, the disconnect will happen after a few minutes of launching seemingly any video game, making online video games impossible. My pc is a TUF Gaming FX

  2. Internet Randomly Disconnects: Ethernet Network Adapter Keeps Disconnecting

    My internet keeps randomly disconnecting throughout the day. Its a Dell (Windows 10Pro 22H2 - Dell Precision 5770) with Network Adapter: Realtek USB Gbe Family Controller Ethernet. I tried these steps below, no resolution yet:

    One thing I noticed, everytime the internet randomly disconnects, I go to Device Manager, and notice the Realtek Network Adapter has totally disappeared from the list (with no option to reenable, even after finding it in Hidden devices).

    I have to go through these two steps in this order to bring back internet.

    1. Restart Computer
    2. and then Restart Modem Router. ( I do restart modem by unplugging/plugging back in).
    If the ethernet disconnects, Restarting the Modem won't work. Neither will Restarting Computer work. It has two be those two steps above in that specific order. I'm curious if having this resolution path, to understand why ethernet adapter disappears. If you can help target or specify why its occurring?

    Already attempted this: and the problem still continues

    1. Updated Dell Drivers
    2. Windows Update
    3. Network Adapter Troubleshooter

    4. (a) Network Reset and (b) tried manually uninstalling/reinstalling network drivers separately

    5. Tried manually downloading the software drivers at Realtek website Oops!
    6. Replace cable just in case, but the other computer in home does not have internet randomly disconnect
    7. Tried:
    1. Disable these three in Device Manager: (a) Energy Efficient Internet (b) Green Ethernet (c) Wake on Magic Packet
    I use the modem with another computer, and no issues whatsoever, until I got a new computer.

    Note: this is different from previous question, since its looking at a problem/diagnosis path, rather power management settings.

  3. Windows 11 ethernet keeps disconnecting.

    My ethernet keeps disconnecting randomly, especially after heavy usage on Windows 11 Pro. It usually stays disconnected until restart.

    My components:

    • MSI B550 Tomahawk
    • Ryzen 7 3700x
    • GTX 1080 TI
    • DA850 Gold Silverstone – power supply
    • Patriot Viper 4 Series DDR4 32GB (2x 16GB) 3200MT (PV432G320C6K)
    • P5 M.2 SSD
    What have I tried:

    • Changed ethernet cable to new one. – I have tried both ethernet ports on MOBO
    • Reset modem settings and restart modem.
    • Almost all software tweaks that I have found online – multiple settings (reset network….etc.).
    • Upgrade network drivers
    • Completely fresh reinstall Windows 11
    • Change power supply and SSD drive.
    • Update BIOS to the latest version.
    I'm currently considering that the problem might be related to Windows 11 itself, given that my other computer that runs on Windows 10 doesn't encounter the same issues. It could also be an issue with the modem itself or a possible hardware malfunction. Interestingly, when I utilize an external WiFi dongle, the WiFi connection seems to work flawlessly. I'm open to suggestions for potential solutions or fixes.
