Windows 10: USB ethernet constantly drops connection

I have a Dell Inspiron running W10 64bit and am trying to use an Anker USB to gigabit ethernet adapter.


It CONSTANTLY drops connection repeatedly for no reason!


The interval between dropouts can be 30 minutes or more when idle, or every few seconds when active.


I've tried various drivers, various IP settings, have disabled energy efficient ethernet, stopped all the USB components from being powered down to save energy and nothing is helping.


It's definitely not a hardware problem as it works fine with Windows 7 Systems.


Everything is completely up to date and virus/malware free.


Any ideas? This is driving me absolutely insane!

Wired Ethernet Connection Constantly Dropping (Windows 10)

My mom recently purchased a laptop from HP running Windows 10. I hooked it up to our Xfinity modem/router via Ethernet and the wired connection is consistently dropping for 5ish seconds, connecting again for a second or two, and then repeating the process.
Connection over WiFi has no problems whatsoever. My own laptop that runs 8.1 has no problems with the same 2-in-1 modem/router, whether wired or wireless.

Any suggestions as to what I can do to remedy the problem?
