Ok, so i have a bit of an issue on my hands. And i have no idea how to fix it.
It's been happening for a long long time but i can't seem to find a solution after trying many things
Main issue My computer, every once in a while, will just straight up disconnect from the internet at random intervals. It could happen every 30 minutes, it could not happen for a few hours.
At first i thought it was my wifi adapter, since it was getting pretty old
So i bought a new one, and it worked fine for a while but after a few days it started having the same issue
And the problem usually can not be fixed until i go into the adapter settings and disable and re-enable it.
Or unplug and replug
So then i tried getting an ethernet connection
and that seemed like it was going to work, but in the end, had the same exact issue, except this time, i didn't have to unplug it to get it to reconnect, it just had to wait a few seconds and it would reconnect on it's own.
Then i thought,
"Well it must be the router then"
so i got a new router...worked for a while, but in the end same issue
And before you think the second router was also an issue, i recently moved, and got yet another new router, this one the newest model they had
Tried both wifi and ethernet on it aswell, same issues
Now im wondering, what could be the problem. Anyone who can help would be much appreciated.
And before you ask, yes i've done basic stuff like resetting the computer and router, factory resetting the router, etc.
(PS this isn't really an issue with normal stuff like watching youtube and browsing the internet, but downloads and games being disconnected is a serious issue.)

If this matters, i don't think my wifi adapter is the issue since it happens on ethernet aswell.
