Hello everyone!
I was hoping someone could help me with a problem I'm having. I just built my first PC, specs below, but I don't really know what I'm doing. Surprisingly, everything has gone amazingly well! The system is stable after some brief benchmarking, I've played some games on it, temperatures look great!
Except for one thing: Whenever my PC goes into sleep mode, I have a rough time connecting to the websites when it wakes up. This also happens if I restart the computer, but not if I power off and then turn it back on (Edit: Sometimes it happens when I power on). When it works, it works very well for an unlimited amount of time so long as I don't interrupt the pc by turning it off, putting it to sleep, or resetting it! But after waking form sleep it's like it only half connects to web pages. It might connect but elements won't load. Or it might not connect at all and the page just times out.
It's only happening on this PC and it's happening in all web browsers I've tried (Edge, Chrome, Firefox). If anyone can help me I'd very much appreciate it! Please remember that I really don't know what I'm doing as I have no mentor to help me and so have had to jump into this by myself.

Some things I've tried:
- I've gone into the settings in the device manager and set the Realtek PCIe GbE Family Controller to not turn off the device to save power.
- in Networking, I've selected change adapter settings, right clicked on the ethernet adapter (only one in there), and set the IPV4 (TCP/IPv4) properties to use the preferred and alternate DNS settings to Open DNS's values.
- When I right click my adapter and select diagnose, what it returns is "Your computer appears to be correctly configured, but the device or resource (DNS server) is not responding", both before and after changing my DNS settings from Auto to Open DNS.
