Hello OBS-Community!
Ive been an OBS-User since i started streaming on twitch and i never had any problems whatsoever (except for lags, dropped frames here and there when there were twitchserver-problems or problems with my provider, which were found out pretty quick).
But now i have a problem which i cant find out and i am in need of a little help here.
It started happening a few days agoand i can reproduce almost every stream. Sometimes - and unfortuantely its totally random - my internet-connection goes offline. It can happen straight away after 30 minutes, sometimes after a couple of hours. I only notice because spotify tells me "Lost internet connection" and i get kicked out of my games (fortnite for instance). The whole time i can speak to my friends in teamspeak, so i get not disconnected from teamspeak. Even windows will tell me my internet is fine. Then all of a sudden my friends will tell me the stream starts lagging till its offline too. I cant visit any websites at all when this happens. OBS wont tell me that i have problems. Everything looks clean. As soon as i press "Stop Streaming" my connection is back online, my games reconnect and so does my spotify. Websurfing is possible then too.
The best part is - it cant be my internet connection because my girlfriend, who sits right next to me, keeps playing with us/talking with us as if nothing is happening. She does not get disconnected. So only my pc is affected. When i play/listen to music etc. while NOT streaming i wont ever get disconnected.
I started playing around with the bitrate and a few settings, but nothing helps... i also cant imagine why my settings should be wrong because i never had problems like this and i started streaming again back in 11/2017. With the same settings till today.
Yesterday i started using StreamlabsOBS to see if it makes any difference - unfortunately i got the same problem occuring twice yesterday.
I thought maybe it has something to do with twitch, because they had lots of problems lately too (bugging dashboards, dropping frames because of bad server connection etc.) but im not quite sure and couldnt find anything on the web.
Please tell me if you need any logfiles and where to find them if you suspect anything - or at least tell me if this problem sounds familiar to you or you know someone who fixed this kind of behavior, because im on my limits now and i just want to stream problemfree again :)
To my internet-connection:
Im using cable no wifi!
Im from germany
200mb downstream
8mb upstream
RIG:
Ryzen 1700 (not OC)
32GB Corsair Vengeance 3000mhz RAM
GeForce GTX 1080
ASUS PRIME B350 Plus Mainboard
250gb SSD Crucial
1 TB HDD
Windows 10 Pro
Currently antivirus software is disabled and so is the firewall. Problem persists.
I usually used 4500 bitrate using the NVENC-codec but now i lowered the bitrate to 3000 and will give it a shot today again.
Thank you all big time for your help in advance!
