I was wondering why I keep disconnecting when I am live. What has been happening is that my whole internet drops from my pc for a few seconds around the same time EVERY night. My wifi is not affected it is just my Ethernet port. I have done everything I can in my power and that I know of. Yes I have made sure it was not a hardware problem cause I tested it out at a friends. All drivers are up-to-date and also all cmds have been done. I am at a loss of everything left. ISP is contacted with a new modem on the way. This was my latest log that I have.

If Wifi not affected, then modem unlikely related (unless your modem, router, and switch are all one device)
An OBS log does not lay-out your network for us, and really isn't an OBS issue anyway.

If your PC streams fine elsewhere, and not at home
- then nothing in OBS log is likely to give any indication of problem
though you are running that PoS plugin StreamElements (which on top of everything I don't like about it, pukes all over the OBS log). Again, if PC and streaming elsewhere works just fine (even with that plugin), then sounds like you need to do some network troubleshooting at home... and what entails depends on the gear... and it outside OBS support (though some of us are willing to assist if we can)

Have you tested elsewhere at that consistent trouble time?
When at home, if you do other consistent upload traffic (like a cloud file sync or multi GB video upload), how is upload traffic? same issue, or no?
there are lots of possibilities for isolating such an issue.
 
I have tested it at that time and seemed fine for what I seen. I hardly upload anything, and cloud syncs I do not use. I have done every driver update and every different cmd prompts and also settings. Also the plugin has never been an issue in previous streams.
 
Are you the ONLY person at the house? an NO other device on the network? no smart speakers or TV, Roku, Apple TV, etc. And no Wifi.
I'm guessing no
in which case YOU HAVE to CHECK the NETWORK. This has nothing to do with what you PC is doing (though it could be, malware is possible though not necessarily likely). The question is what is EVERYTHING on your LAN (that you expect and that you don't) doing in terms of traffic?

And then you need to test. A cloud sync was one possible test method, not the only one. After setting up your network such that NOTHING else is using it, testing sustained upload bandwidth checks both your router and your ISP. How you do such a test (over many minutes, as in 10-to-30+ minutes... sustained) is up to you

As for the plugin... prior experience doesn't count. that plugin talks extensively over the Internet. something that was okay may not be now. Others have disabled/uninstalled it and seen issues clear up. Others are fine with the plugin. Its quality is highly suspect. so your mileage may vary, so to speak. The plugin could be hanging up on something remote and that is having a trickle down effect on the Operating System/NIC. Or... lots of possibilities

So I have uninstalled the plug in but still is happening. I have also updated the BIOS as well. Sorry this took, a bit to get back to you as work was busy.
