    Random internet disconnections for both Ethernet and Wireless


    Win 11 Home 22H2Randomly, I get disconnected from the internet. I've looked at numerous Youtube videos and websites trying to find a solution to my problem. Nothing seems to work. What is really frustrating is I've run the troubleshooter for internet issues. The troubleshooter says I have internet but I am unable to load any websites.I've performed:ncpa.cpl to configure my network connection. I read that it may help to manually set up prioritization and making sure windows is not trying to set up the priority.netsh winsock reset netsh int ip reset ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew ipconfig /fl

    :)

  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
      Random internet disconnections for both Ethernet and Wireless [​IMG]

    5. Tried manually downloading the software drivers at Realtek website Downloads - REALTEK
    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.

    "No Internet Access" on Ethernet and Wireless - Windows 10

    Steps taken to resolve:

    • Downloaded from Realtek and installed Windows 10 driver for Realtek PCIe FE Family device
    • reset winsock and ip4 and ip6.
    • reset DNS cache
    • forced media connection by changing ip4 to fixed ip address, gateway, and dns server. Able to ping other devices on network - including gateway, but could not connect to internet. Diagnose unable to find issue with connection.
      • "ipconfig /release" message is "no operation can be performed on (adapter name) while it has its media disconnected."
    • when using DHCP, do not receive response from default gateway, so ipconfig has strange addresses. Diagnose returns:
      • "Ethernet" doesn't have a valid IP configuration.
    • all other computers on network able to use DHCP for addresses.

    trudging through topics on tech forum(s) to find other solutions. Need suggestions on resolution.
