Ethernet Connection Drops Randomly

Status
Not open for further replies.
Last week I built my new PC and I got it running fine. However when I first built it I had a problem where the connection kept dropping. After running the PC for a while it stabilises then in about 3-4 hours starts dropping again. It gets really annoying when I'm trying to game on it or download something.
I use a device that gets the Ethernet connection from the Router downstairs, sends the signal through the mains and is recieved by the other device. I considered this may be a source of the problem but it doesn't cause any problems on my PS4.
Here is my build if it helps in any way: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/LprkZR

Thanks in Advance,
Elmon
 
What you are plugging into the outlet is it sending a WiFi and or do you connect to it via Cable?

If cable have you tried the same one that connects the PS4?

Have you reset the network setting on the computer?

Have you put in any configuration into the TCP/IP for the computer or any other device for that fact?

When it drops connection for how long? Does it recover? If not how are you recovering the connection?
