    Hey Guys!

    I've noticed a seemingly random trend where my internet can drop a few times a week but the simple act of removing and reinserting the Ethernet cable in the back immediately resolves the issue (as in within the second?) I was wondering if you might be able to shed any light on a probable cause for this?

    I did notice what seemed like a sharp drop in download speeds around half a minute beforehand but this all seems to be confined to this specific computer and not the network as a whole as in the past when a similar thing has happened my laptop has still be connected wirelessly.

    Cheers for any help you may be able to provide!
