After a lot of Googling a few days ago, one person recommended disabling Recv Segment Coalescing (IPV4) and (IPV6) in the network adapter properties under the Advanced tab. So far no more network drops.

Those firmwares listed on Asus' and Marvell's websites don't work with my card since it's a v2 revision. From my googling, there's no updated firmwares for it.

So the first card used a 1x PCIe slot and the newer one uses a 4x PCIe slot. Different slots. I don't think it's overheating cause it could crap out when I try downloading a game at the beginning of the day, but when I disable and enable the NIC it'll work fine for hours afterwards at full speed.

They're from different manufacturers. The first one had the Realtek RTL8125-CG chipset and the second one has a Aquantia AQC107.

This one has me stumped. It doesn't happen every time, but occasionally when downloading something that completely saturates my internet connection (1.2gbps/35mbps from Comcast) my network connection just stops working. It's as if the internet ghosted and the PC didn't realize it until it later timed out. The only way to fix it is by disabling and enabling the network card and everything works fine for a few hours. I'm usually not downloading at full bore all the time. Mostly occurs during speed tests and game downloads which can sustain full speed saturation. It's been stumping me because it's been happening for a few months now and I've already changed the NIC, cable and upgraded the router/modem from Comcast. I've also done a fresh installation of Windows 11 a few times since then. I've checked Event Viewer and there's no relevant events at the time of the network drop. ASUS XG-C100C (negotiates at 2500/2500) connected to Xfinity's new XB8 gateway. Any ideas from troubleshooting is appreciated.

I'm looking at the Netgear forums and it seems the firmware I'm using has been pulled due to having a ton a problems, one of them being port forwarding stops working. I have to downgrade and reset the router. That's going to be a PITA. There's a beta firmware around but their forums are a mess to navigate.

Computer's IP has been reserved via DHCP since I bought the router like a year ago. I have not changed any settings in the router or in the computer.

I'm traveling to my parent's soon and I need everything to be working before I'm gone so I can remotely manage my PC. The problem is that I can remotely connect to some services, but not others. For example, Plex, Emby and TeamViewer work. I guess programs that do their own thing with ports have no problems. Programs where I have to manually specify ports and do the forwarding don't work, like NZBGet, Sonarr and Couchpotato. Ports are forwarded correctly in the router and as far as I can tell I don't think there's anything incorrect in Windows 10's firewall. Just a few minutes ago Plex wasn't working until I disabled manually specifying the port used and it miraculously worked. I'm honestly out of ideas. Any help is appreciated. Edit: I should note, everything was working fine some months ago but I have no idea what changed.
