Internet disconnects and won't reconnect until restart

Question

My computer is having internet issues, when I try to stream, only when I try to stream, it disconnects from the internet and won't reconnect until I restart.

I can navigate in the internet without issue, download, play games, watch movies, etc. no problem at all, I try to stream, and in a couple minutes the internet disconnects and will not reconnect until I restart.

But the internet itself is not offline, I can still access it through my tablet

I tried everything I could find online in the past few weeks to try to solve the issue, it's been happening for over a year now.

It happens almost immediately when I try to stream using OBS Studio, but not only when I try to stream, it is also infrequent, there are days there is no issue, other days it disconnects 3-4 times in a single day.

So far I have:

• Tried to run windows troubleshooters, it didn't find any issue it could fix, it says there is a problem, but does nothing to fix it.
• Tried to run console commands to reset the connection ( netsh int ip reset / netsh advfirewall reset / netsh winsock reset / ipconfig /flushdns / ipconfig /release / ipconfig /renew )
• Tried asking for help from my ISP, they replaced the modem, twice, it didn't change anything, disconnects still happen.
• During this time I had issues with my motherboard and had to replace it, the problem happened both before and after I replaced the motherboard
• I tried to uninstall and reinstall the network drives, it did not work.
• I tried to completely format my computer, it did not work either.
• I tried using a different streaming software, but the problem kept occurring.

My motherboard model:

BaseBoard Manufacturer Micro-Star International Co. Ltd.

BaseBoard Product MAG B460 Tomahawk MS7C81

Baseboard Version 1.0

When the problem happens, if I try to run the troubleshoot, it displays the error below:

2. Now click on Reset button on next screen.
3. In confirmation prompt appearing next, click Yes.

Let us know if this helps!

Answer 3

How do I disable the router's IPv6 DHCP server settings?

Answer 4

I tried it all, disabling non used adapters, network reset, etc., it did not work.

Answer 5

I'm running into this issue as well.

Ethernet connection fails and many applications (besides chrome) lose connection (Slack, Discord, ALL Windows apps, etc). I have to restart my computer to fix it, but restarting my computer spins and spins and I have to force restart by pushing the button on my computer.

Once restarted everything works fine again until I try Steam Remote Streaming to my TV or another computer,
or if I use Microsoft Teams, or a Slack huddle, or other streaming/video call type activity. (Zoom does not break the connection for whatever reason.)

I've tried many of the solutions in this thread to no avail. My PC is 2 years old and has great hardware.
