Internet Randomly Cutting Out..

finn_ · July 28, 2020

Hello all!

So I've recently reset my pc (around 1-2 weeks ago) and about now I've started noticing an issue. My internet randomly cuts out but in a weird way. I'm pretty sure its not a problem with the actual internet connection, but about 3-5 times a day my internet just decides to go out for around 10-20 seconds. If I'm in the game its like I just suddenly lost connection but in discord, I can still hear people speak. I can't speak myself (discord shows me as speaking) but my friends can't hear me whatsoever. I usually end up disconnecting from the game. The only differences I have from my old install (without the problems) and my current install that I can think of is a change in os (win 10 home -> win 10 pro), razer synapse and a vyprvpn.

I see how VyprVPN could be somehow connected, but I would like to keep this if possible, and also the vpn is not open, and theres nothing I can find in task manager that has to do with it. It also is not enabled on startup, so I don't know how this could have affected it.

I just want to know what people think is the next step from here. Is this a common issue? I appericiate any help

Specs:

gtx 1070
i7-8700k
2x8gb 3000mhz ram
2x1tb ssd
windows 10 pro 64bit

Thanks,

Finn

This has been happening to me as well recently, though for about a month. I'd like to hear an explanation.

do you have a vpn and do you use realtek audio?
