Sounds like either you have an issue with your computer's network card or you have an issue with your satellite-to-router backhaul connectivity.
That didn't work :/
I would try deleting your computer's network connection and adding it back in. I'm not really sure how to do that, because I don't know what type of computer you have. You should also make sure you have the latest device drivers for the computer's ethernet card. I would also try moving the satellite and router so they are closer and/or have fewer walls between them, even if temporarily, to see if that removes the disconnects.
Huge problem occurred, I uninstalled and reinstalled the Ethernet adapter and when I restarted my computer it says that the connection is limited and I can't sign because it is saying "your device is offline. Please sign in with the last password used in this devicd" I have only ever had one password.
Do I can't get into my computer to fix the limited internet problem and I can't fix the limited internet problem by getting into my computer.
