A6210 disconnects an hour after streaming with no prior issues?
So I have had very little issues with the adapter, but the biggest issue I've had so far is when I try to screenshare (basically stream) to Discord. I start the stream and for an hour or two it works fine with no issues. After said one or two hours, it is almost as if it just gives up. I lose all connection to the internet out of seemingly nowhere, for no apparent reason. I check my other devices during this and they are perfectly fine, so I am assuming it is something wrong with the adapter. After 3-5 minutes and a struggle with the control panel it came with, I can reconnect but it stutters for a few minutes after recovering. But then its back to acting like nothing happened.
Some details regarding my situation: My internet download speed is 30mbps on good days but usually around 15mbps. Upload is aroun 13mbps usually. My gaming PC I use the adapter on uses Windows 10 as well.
This is my first time using an adapter of any kind, so I am pretty clueless as to what the issue is, or how to fix it. As far as I am aware, it is fully updated as I have only had it for a month and a half so far.
