Good evening everyone,

Here’s the thing, I have a small problem; whenever I download (legally of course) my connection cuts off and resumes each time.
I tried updating my network drivers, but it's impossible to download as the connection keeps dropping...

The same goes for updates, I attempted to install an update for a game (Fortnite) and I noticed that at certain moments the connection drops to 0...

This is a new computer; on my old one, I had no problems...
I'm on WIFI with Freebox. Below you will find my speed test:

    Hi,
    how do you see that your connection is dropping?
    your speedtest is very good.
    if you want to be optimum, connect directly to your router via ethernet.

    and ... There you go!

      Hi,

      I see it because when I download something on Firefox for example (In this case, it's a driver to update my graphics card) I see the download fails.

      And if I install an update, I monitor the download speed and I notice that at certain moments and for a few seconds it drops to 0 kb/s and the Wi-Fi icon shows as disconnected..

      The problem with the Ethernet cable is that my router is located underneath my couch and I play on the other side of the room :(

      Yes, well, I don't want it to look disgusting!
      I should be able to at least pick up the Wi-Fi without having to go through Ethernet, since I had no issues with my old computer!!

      Using an Ethernet cable doesn't solve my underlying problem.
