Platinum VIP nAbish Posted August 7, 2023 Platinum VIP Share Posted August 7, 2023 I had a similar problem before with my pc, turned out to be my ISP (internet service provider.) Upon getting a new provider it fixed all of my issues. Might be worth looking into, I hope this helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leader RedBaird Posted August 7, 2023 Leader Share Posted August 7, 2023 You can run the Network Diagnostics program. If it does not immediately detect something, you can try running it when Youtube is playing a video, etc. I have lost network connectivity and had to restart the computer. Not Shutdown, but the Restart, which restarts everything. Shutdown keeps a copy of much of the Operating system on HD, like a Hibernation setting and restores that 'live copy' of what had been running before. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a chance the Ethernet cable to this particular pc is damaged somehow? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mraw435 Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 To confirm, both PCs connected via ethernet? Or one daughter is using wireless and the other has the ethernet? If both are using ethernet cable - i agree with nabish about updating network drivers or replacing ethernet cable (swapthe cables to see if the issue starts to effect your other daughter!) If one is operating wireless, can be lack of bandwidth, weak connection due to obstructions (walls and stuff), or failing router...or something else lol 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlitfaceJR Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 In case that the new cable does not solve your issue. do you have access to the admin panel of your router/modem ? I can modify settings in my modem/router that been provided by my ISP verify that there is no bandwith limit or something set by factory on there dumb trick that you may already know but worth mentioning, try to unplug your modem 10 sec than plug it back on, sometime it does solve the problem, it does happen to have little bugs from time to time like every peice of hardware. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had to replace a computer-to-modem/gateway cable. I guess that it didn't "like" the little bend it had in it, which was twisted a little each time that I power-cycled the unit. (Seems to work better. 😄 ) 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Seems to work better. 😄 ) Although i agree its always good to turn things off now and again and cold boot etc, Lines with DLM for instance should ideally be kept on at all times unless you really need to turn off, too many switches off and on and the DLM thinks your line is unstable so lowers the speed of the line to help compensate the instability. Although the speeds can go back up they wont if you constantly reboot and it could take months to regain any speed loss. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
