I am on a MSI MPG B550 GAMING CARBON WIFI (MS-7C90) motherboard.

This has been happening ever since I put this PC together back in Dec, where it had a host of other issues related to internet admission, such as directly upwardly dropping the wi-fi connexion over and over over again just seconds at a fourth dimension, although that has been remedied past using an ethernet cable. However, another issue presented itself, seemingly randomly I would be disconnecting from games I would exist playing. I thought it to be the general game server's faults, i.e. Overwatch, Destiny 2, Noon services. I had started streaming about a month agone, and I found out that these disconnects in the game were not random, information technology was precisely every ii hours and four minutes on the dot from when I found a connection with the game servers, per application. This also would crusade my stream to crash in the same time frame.

Everything is fine (no people running into walls, no signs of something going wrong), and and so I become booted from the game, and ONLY from the game, other stuff open in the groundwork such as Discord seem to stay continued, same with my web browser and Spotify. Information technology doesn't all happen at the same exact fourth dimension, only it happens as before long equally two hours and four minutes after the connection of the specific application has been established, and in one case that time frame has passed, it boots me dorsum to the main menu or whatever the game has where it reconnects me after a infinitesimal or so.

I have checked all over my router and general connectivity to the internet, the logs etc., this seems to merely be on my computer's stop. I don't know how to check the logs on my own computer with internet connectivity going out. I have also uninstalled, reinstalled, and updated my network driver for the ethernet. I have turned off any sort of power saving related function for it every bit well. It just seems strange that it is oddly application connectedness based, the entire figurer does non lose internet admission, just specific points of connect for merely a few moments. I have all the Windows 10 updates, and have uninstalled all forms of software I can find that might be interfering with my connection that I can detect online from other threads.

I tin can't seem to find my upshot anywhere online. Anyone have an thought of what might be happening?

Well it seems similar my issue has been resolved for now, although I am non exactly sure what it may be. I can maintain a connectedness much longer than two hours and 4 minutes for my applications.
The things I did were the post-obit before finding out it was fixed.

1. I switched from manual IP addressing to DHCP on my computer, although I however take an IP reserved for the PC ethernet adapter'south MAC address, then the router automatically assigns the IP to be what I have in the settings. Manual settings as well require to input a DNS server, in which my router automatically uses one, and it could've been possible it was using Comcast's DNS and I had prepare my PC to use Cloudflare'southward DNS servers, so perchance at that place was a conflict between the devices? Although nothing appeared in the logs.
2. I turned off iPv6 and turned it dorsum on again.
3. I activated SIP ALG nether my NAT settings on my router.

I remember having these issues before I manually set my computer's IP on the machines terminate rather than the router's terminate, merely I guess it might have been what was causing it? I don't know, only it had aught to do with Steam or any of the installed software on my computer, including drivers.
Thank you lot anybody for your help.

yous may desire to contact your ISP and have them do some diagnostics.

• #3

you may want to contact your Internet access provider and take them do some diagnostics.

I estimate I could try, but this does not occur on any other device on my network. And from what I tin tell from looking at router and modem logs, neither of them notice a single thing regarding the PC.

I of the common reasons is some issue with the DHCP charter time. The IP address assigned to your motorcar expires after a flow of fourth dimension. The machine normally requests a extension and it will never really elapse.

You tin see the lease fourth dimension with a ipconfig /all. Most home users it is gear up to a lease time of at to the lowest degree a day so even if at that place was a issue requesting a extension information technology would non happen a lot. The lease fourth dimension is fix in the router.

The simplest test is to go into the pc IPV4 settings and set a ip address manually. Utilize a high address like 192.168.ten.210. The correct style is to option a IP that is outside the dhcp pool in the router since the router assigned starting at low numbers it will work to just choice high ones.

While you are in there disable the IPv6 support. It likely is not your problem but IPv6 seems to cause strange bug for people.

If it is not dhcp you might detect something in the event monitor in your PC at those times.

This has been happening ever since I put this PC together back in December, where it had a host of other issues related to internet admission, such as direct up dropping the wi-fi connexion over and over over again only seconds at a time, although that has been remedied past using an ethernet cable. Withal, another event presented itself, seemingly randomly I would be disconnecting from games I would exist playing. I thought it to exist the full general game server's faults, i.due east. Overwatch, Destiny ii, Noon services. I had started streaming near a calendar month agone, and I found out that these disconnects in the game were not random, information technology was precisely every 2 hours and iv minutes on the dot from when I establish a connection with the game servers, per application. This too would cause my stream to crash in the same fourth dimension frame.

Everything is fine (no people running into walls, no signs of something going incorrect), and then I become booted from the game, and Simply from the game, other stuff open in the background such as Discord seem to stay connected, same with my web browser and Spotify. Information technology doesn't all happen at the aforementioned verbal fourth dimension, but it happens equally shortly as ii hours and 4 minutes afterwards the connectedness of the specific application has been established, and once that time frame has passed, it boots me back to the main bill of fare or whatsoever the game has where it reconnects me after a minute or so.

I have checked all over my router and full general connectivity to the internet, the logs etc., this seems to only be on my calculator's stop. I don't know how to check the logs on my own computer with internet connectivity going out. I accept besides uninstalled, reinstalled, and updated my network driver for the ethernet. I have turned off whatever sort of power saving related function for it as well. It just seems strange that it is oddly awarding connectedness based, the entire estimator does not lose internet access, just specific points of connect for only a few moments. I have all the Windows 10 updates, and take uninstalled all forms of software I tin find that might be interfering with my connection that I can discover online from other threads.

I can't seem to find my issue anywhere online. Anyone have an idea of what might exist happening?

It'south and so foreign that everything else remains connected while the game crashes, without showing any signs of lag prior to the incident. Perhaps the consequence is with the game itself (i.e. y'all need to repair your client), you accept a virus (employ antivirus to impale it), or you are running out of space on your hard drive. That'southward all I can retrieve of for now, I promise it gets better!

I wonder why information technology's 2 hours and 4 minutes specifically? No wonder you can't detect information technology on other forums. Exercise update usa when y'all become to the bottom of what's happening!

And I will add to @bill001g 'southward suggestions (Post #4) that you lot also wait in Reliability History.

Reliability History uses a timeline format that may help place whatever errors, warnings, or advisory events that occur two hours, 4 minutes afterward connecting to a game server.

Task Scheduler is another place to look. Some Upshot A occurs and then, later 2 hours, 4 minutes, Event B is triggered.

It'due south so foreign that everything else remains continued while the game crashes, without showing whatever signs of lag prior to the incident.

For sure. I have been request effectually a lot about how this might even exist possible on my end rather than a server issue to find a place to offset, because I still take come dry even afterwards several months of off and on checking on this consequence.

Peradventure the event is with the game itself (i.e. you need to repair your customer), you have a virus (employ antivirus to kill it), or you are running out of space on your hard drive.

This isn't the issue, doesn't just happen with a single game, information technology happens to the internet connexion of every awarding that has a steady connection to a server, so in the example of something like Rocket League, while I won't get disconnected from private game servers because they change every five to viii minutes, my in game parties get disbanded on the aforementioned time interval because that is a consequent stream to the main RL servers.
I've tried different antiviruses, hasn't changed anything, in fact I've reinstalled Windows about two or three times since this issue first started, then anything related to files seems unlikely. Also in terms of storage, my PC has a 2TB HDD likewise as a NVME 1TB SSD, neither close to capacity.

I wonder why it'southward two hours and 4 minutes specifically? No wonder yous can't find information technology on other forums. Do update us when y'all get to the bottom of what's happening!

This is a good indicator to me that it has to be software rather than hardware, and to exist fair, other people who might have this effect might recollect it'south random, I idea it was random until I started streaming where I noticed my streams E'er gave out at the same minute mark, and and so I would e'er cheque my games session timer on the Steam overlay and for sure it always took 124 minutes. Thanks for the suggestions though! Appreciate your time. Volition do if something works.

1 of the mutual reasons is some outcome with the DHCP lease time. The IP address assigned to your automobile expires subsequently a catamenia of time. The auto normally requests a extension and it volition never actually expire.

You lot can see the lease time with a ipconfig /all. Near dwelling house users it is set to a charter fourth dimension of at to the lowest degree a day so even if there was a issue requesting a extension information technology would not happen a lot. The charter time is set in the router.

The simplest exam is to get into the pc IPV4 settings and set a ip accost manually. Use a high address like 192.168.x.210. The correct mode is to pick a IP that is exterior the dhcp pool in the router since the router assigned starting at low numbers it will piece of work to just choice high ones.

While you are in there disable the IPv6 support. It probable is not your problem but IPv6 seems to cause foreign bug for people.

If information technology is not dhcp you might find something in the event monitor in your PC at those times.

Oh! This is really a lot of good stuff to try, I will for certain dig through the things related to the DHCP and answer again if anything changes. Information technology does take a fleck to go through individual changes and tests as it does take 2 hours to detect out whether something works. It would seem strange to me if it was a lease time issue set in the router as my computer is the but 1 having bug, even a laptop prepare right adjacent to me on the same net never experiences something like this, but I will recheck everything in the router for sure!

In fact my lease seems to exist gear up to a solar day.
Although I volition still await deeper into this stuff on my end. Gonna exist honest, I wasn't aware ipconfig /all existed.

I also already run on a static IPv4 with a high number, but will effort out disabling IPv6.

And I've gone through my entire event monitor, timing a disconnect downwardly to the second and I usually never notice anything around the same fourth dimension as the disconnect that doesn't happen all the time, or is happening exterior of times I take annihilation open up, as well every bit normally non being related to internet connectivity. I've likewise gone through my Task Scheduler, nil there either.

Thanks for the suggestions and ideas, will definitely get to checking them.

• #9

And I volition add to @bill001g 's suggestions (Post #4) that you lot besides wait in Reliability History.

Reliability History uses a timeline format that may help identify whatever errors, warnings, or informational events that occur 2 hours, 4 minutes afterward connecting to a game server.

Task Scheduler is another place to look. Some Upshot A occurs and then, after 2 hours, 4 minutes, Event B is triggered.

Reliability History doesn't actually show anything related to the issue, at to the lowest degree from what I can see. Unless there is any way to configure information technology to prove more than information, all the errors information technology shows are things that haven't happened around these disconnects, let lonely any of the games I play existence on at that place.

And aye I took a look through my unabridged Job Scheduler, nothing was schedules to run around that kind of format, and I even disabled some that I suspicious of being the culprit, no dice.

I volition also add that I purchased a PCIE Ethernet Port for my PC as I saw another thread that said it stock-still their disconnect outcome for them, but same consequence, but a little worse actually, the disconnect per application lasts longer than it does when the cable is plugged directly into my motherboard. It but makes me wonder if it is the motherboard hardware or if it has something to practise with my Realtek Ethernet drivers? I have updated and reverted updates to run into if information technology fixed anything as well as disabling any ability saving modes, simply still arriving at the same conclusion.

Wired or wireless with USB connectivity. Pull the PCIE Ethernet port adapter and install the borrowed network adapter,

Manually download the applicable drivers via the borrowed adapter'south manufacturer'due south website. Install and configure for your network.

Ensure that only ane network adapter is enabled.

I retried this, there was a time where a USB Netgear WiFi adapter did work without any issues, simply it seems to fall to the aforementioned event my built in Wifi chipset does now (an Intel AX200) which is that it does randomly drop the entire internet connexion and no longer connect to my WiFi and randomly comes back on and and then goes off once again, which is a much worse event to deal with than the issue specifically to do with the ethernet. At least with the Ethernet, the disconnects are predictable, accept a fleck, and but last for a blip, at least as far every bit I tin see, whereas the wireless stuff just cuts the entire connection only a couple minutes into using them.

Only yeah, couldn't seem to fix this upshot either. If there'south whatsoever other information I can provide or logs I tin can await into, just let me know.

802.xi AX is designed for the same room, or you lot would need nodes that tin physically see each other to go on a consistent connection. A ability line adapter or what I recommend is a coax over Ethernet adapter "Moca". Moca does not need cable internet, and works with cobweb, dsl, or even a cracking wireless set up. two.4 ghz is the best solution for traveling through physical objects and distance. If you can 802.11 G is past far the all-time setting you lot probably could employ for stability, and minimizing interference. AX and AC adapters should provide these functions including the routers

The router does take logs (Reference physically numbered Folio 84 in the User Manual.).

Accept some screenshots of the log entry actions that you can acquaintance with the disconnects and anything that happened in the preceding three hours or so.

Yeah that looks like the same router as the one I have here.
About associating logs with disconnects... it doesn't show upwards on the router logs, at all. I have information technology set to log all the possible things it can, and the router never registers a disconnect. Remember I said my computer as a whole doesn't lose internet access, information technology's just on an application specific timer, at least while on Ethernet.

As for my Wi-Fi, information technology actually might turn out that I don't lose connectedness to the Wi-Fi, however the Wi-Fi adapter refuses to procedure the fact that the Wi-Fi is connected to the Cyberspace? It's weird, only I tin try to confirm more about the Wi-Fi specifically if yous need/want me to, I'yard more trying to become to the lesser of my ethernet consequence tbh.

Anyways, here are the images you lot wanted. Hopefully they might provide some insight or more than options to endeavour. Really do capeesh all the replies.

Logs:

In a time span of about 3 1/2 hours the router responded to 7 device requests for DHCP IP addresses.

Nonetheless, I could not actually scroll the log image to determine if a particular device received an IP address and then, requested and received an IP address ii hours and four minutes afterward.

The logs were overall interesting but did non (at least with the provided prototype) reveal anything specifically "related to" 2 hours and iv minutes per se.

In whatever case, after reading back, with the timing ( 2 hours 4 minutes) affecting only your computer and existence application specific [timer] the potential suspects are narrowing downwards.

As a outcome and as a procedure of emptying, I do non believe that it is a network problem per se.

I am left with two immediate suspects:

1) An access command setting on the router.

ii) A like Family View setting in Steam.

Cheque both for whatsoever restrictions.

There may exist other ideas and suggestions as to additional possibilities.

Someone else may note something I missed in the logs.

However, I could non actually scroll the log image to determine if a particular device received an IP address and then, requested and received an IP address 2 hours and 4 minutes later.

I'm gonna get a game I play to disconnect for me in the next two hours or and so, and I will re-screenshot the logs, but get a better view of everything this time; I kinda forgot I could make the logs larger and so you could run across more than in i image, that's my bad. Just I don't think it has much to do with DHCP, at least for the computer as you kind of signal out, but yeah the router does take a lot of DHCP requests in general, I guess a lot of stuff in the house turns off and on? My dad has a lot of smart habitation equipment, such as the thermostat, smoke alarms, doorbell, smart TVs, etc. My brother and I too turn our PCs off and on a couple times a day as we go out and come back home for stuff, but the IPs don't seem to necessarily be us, so information technology is kinda interesting.
As for the 2 suspects you list:

1) An access control setting on the router.

Here is a screenshot of the page. I blotted out some of the names of devices as it contained some family member's names. Nothing seems out of the ordinary to me, no devices are blocked or put on some sort of restriction, information technology'southward fully open.

ii) A like Family View setting in Steam.

I take family view disabled. I have ever been the owner of my steam business relationship and at well-nigh have immune some friends to borrow steam games by library share, simply it would always give me a notification if they wanted to play a game or were playing a game from my library, which most (if any of my friends) haven't done in a couple months at present. I also do accept 2FA enabled on my account, and this does non but impact steam games, this affects everything on my PC. Overwatch on Boxing.cyberspace does the aforementioned ii hours and 4 infinitesimal thing, aforementioned with Battlefield 4 on Origin. Thanks for the relatively quick replies by the fashion, hopefully some other options may open up to try.

Quick count: your home network tallies to 39 devices, 6 wired and 33 wireless.

Is that expected/reasonable?

Well-nigh ten "Device Names" are Unknown or -- . Practise yous have any idea what they might exist?

No devices with Static IP addresses?

On your computer run the following commands via the Command Prompt:

ipconfig /all

To clarify: "this affects everything on my PC. " the 'this' being the 2 hr 4 minute shutdown - correct?

Quick count: your home network tallies to 39 devices, vi wired and 33 wireless.

Is that expected/reasonable?

I would guess so, with the amount of things my parents own and accept connected in the past, also considering that this counts each network adapter as a separate device with its own MAC address, with the wired devices beingness the Ethernet power adapter, my pc, and the devices around the home that are connected to the ability adapter.

About 10 "Device Names" are Unknown or -- . Exercise you take whatsoever idea what they might exist?

No devices with Static IP addresses?

I can merely presume and gauge that these devices are smart home devices, the thermostat, video doorbell, cameras, etc, as I experience like I don't see them on here very much and I know they're continued to the net in some fashion through our home network.

As for static IP address, yeah pretty much, my PC is the simply device with a static IP, everything else is automatically assigned.

On your figurer run the following commands via the Control Prompt:

ipconfig /all

arp -a

To clarify: "this affects everything on my PC. " the 'this' beingness the 2 hour 4 minute shutdown - correct?

Command Prompt Screen
I but had a thought, it wouldn't have anything to practise with a DNS server, would it? Like if my router wants to connect to one DNS and my PC is trying to adopt another? Just curious.

And yes, I was referring to the ii 60 minutes 4 minute shutdown, and loss of internet access in full general. Nothing else on the network is affected outside of when Comcast loses internet distribution in my expanse due to ability outages and other problems that come up, but none of that has really happened recently, information technology's just been my PC consistently doing this.

Your estimator does not accept an assigned static IP accost.

At the fourth dimension of the ipconfig/all check, your reckoner is shown every bit a wired connectedness with an assigned DHCP IP accost of 192.168.1.69 assigned by the router at 192.168.ane.1 (Subnet 255.255.255.0).

That and other things are consistent with the previous screen images in your Mail #19.

Regarding: "I but had a idea, it wouldn't have anything to practise with a DNS server, would it? Like if my router wants to connect to ane DNS and my PC is trying to adopt another? Just curious. "

What DNS servers?

Overall, the information thus far does non support a networking issue.

More specifically the symptoms seem to betoken some specific cake on your computer. Likely via Steam/Family View. Could exist elsewhere....

Looking for "2 60 minutes limits", "networks" etc, I besides plant this:

"Still, there are limits to how long y'all tin can have a game before returning it. To return a game, you can't have endemic it for more than two weeks, and you can't play it for more than ii hours total. If you try to return a game outside of these limits, there'southward a skilful run a risk your asking will be rejected. And when it comes to the two hours of playtime, Steam counts every 2nd the game application is open equally playtime. The timer runs even when the game is minimized or paused — something to keep in mind if you're on the contend about trying to prepare the game or refund it early in your experience. "

(My underlining. That is every bit shut to anything equally I could find with respect to time, steam, etc.. However as your computer is the only afflicted device then something else is going on.)

Three firsthand things you can practice:

i) If you own the games, then you demand to contact Steam regarding being able to proceed the play time across 2 hours ( + or - a few minutes). Y'all are able to re-constitute game play by restarting right? Practise you brand any other changes or do anything else in lodge to be able to play once more?

ii) Double cheque the Family View settings by logging into Steam and ensuring that all settings are correct or otherwise every bit expected. E.g., no restrictions in place. There is a magician to guide the procedure. However, there may some other add-ons involved.

3) If you have not already done then, ask/tell your Dad about the two hour disconnection fourth dimension(s). With so many wireless devices there may be other related issues that could be placing the entire wired/wireless network at risk. A couple of things did not brand sense to me but that I am simply working with snapshots. Unknown (at least to y'all) devices on a network are always a concern. Your Dad should know about those unknown devices and, if non, figure out what those devices are and what they are doing.

Well it seems like my issue has been resolved for now, although I am non exactly sure what information technology may exist. I can maintain a connection much longer than ii hours and four minutes for my applications.
The things I did were the following earlier finding out it was fixed.

1. I switched from manual IP addressing to DHCP on my computer, although I still have an IP reserved for the PC ethernet adapter'southward MAC accost, so the router automatically assigns the IP to exist what I have in the settings. Manual settings also require to input a DNS server, in which my router automatically uses i, and information technology could've been possible it was using Comcast's DNS and I had set my PC to utilize Cloudflare'southward DNS servers, then possibly there was a conflict between the devices? Although nothing appeared in the logs.
2. I turned off iPv6 and turned it back on once again.
3. I activated SIP ALG under my NAT settings on my router.

I retrieve having these issues earlier I manually gear up my computer's IP on the machines end rather than the router's end, just I judge it might have been what was causing information technology? I don't know, just it had nothing to do with Steam or whatsoever of the installed software on my computer, including drivers.
Thanks anybody for your assistance.

Thank you everyone for your aid.

I had this same issue for about 6 months. It started when I switched to Spectrum net from a local DSL service. I finally institute the solution nonetheless I never found the reason.

I also disconnected from battle.net servers after exactly 2 hours 4 minutes. I tried everything in every forum. I ran tests while I withal had both internet connections switching my Nighthawk R7000p back and forth. I never had whatever issues on the DSL simply the cablevision had the disconnects every 2 hours 4 minutes without fail.

I can say with certainty the solutions above did not work. The simply thing that does resolve the disconnects is enabling dynamic QoS. I had but 6mbps on DSL and one gig through cable. The speed tests on Spectrum average 920 down 32 up. Enabling QoS does limit the bandwidth on the connexion even if the priority is set to Highest even so it does not affect the latency. The speed test now average 600/28 but that is worth the sacrifice to no longer have disconnect bug.
If anyone knows the reason for the disconnects or how QoS resolves information technology, I would be interested to know.

I hope this helps!
