    Network Adapter Keeps Disconnecting/resetting


    So recently my network adapter keeps randomly disconnecting, and it's been really annoying. If I use the built-in windows troubleshooter, however, it fixes the problem, but having to run the troubleshooter every time I get dropped (every 10-20 minutes or so), gets pretty tedious. Is there a permanent solution?

    Things I've tried already: Updating my drivers, and turning off the "allow this device to be turned off to save power" option

    Any help would be sweet, thanks.

    Things you can try:
    - Use the 2nd network adapter
    - Check in Safe Mode with Networking
    - Check with a live Linux distro
    - Load optimized defaults in BIOS
