OBS suddenly stops streaming and then totally disconnects my internet. I am on Ethernet.

Hello,

I have been having issues with my obs suddenly disconnecting with the internet randomly and it totally disconnects my internet altogether, I use a thunderbolt 4 docking station with an Ethernet port as I'm hardwired in. What's strange is that it works fine and well but as soon as I start streaming after about 10 to 20 minutes later after a few scene changes... it will disconnect my internet altogether (But all the other devices in the house are ok and still can connect wirelessly) and I have to unplug and plug the Ethernet cable back into the port. I use Xfinity and I have Gigabit tier service. I have a Lenovo Legion and I have the Network Boost off. And also Hardware Acceleration GPU Scheduling turned off too.

I also included the last Log and the current log (I am currently streaming and doing some test work.

You have things a bit backwards, if your entire connection is going out then OBS is no capable of doing this....it just uses your network it doesn't control it. If your confident it is only happening on your computer and not from your router/modem then you have some hardware or driver issue with your PC and would want to reach out to more generalized support instead of the OBS forums. If you find that your network is going out entirely and you maybe just didn't realize, you'd want to contact your ISP.
