Did a Windows Update break network connectivity?
I'm running Win 10 22H2, and at some point in the last month (maybe two), I went from having rock solid networking to having my internet become unusable once a day or so.
When this happens, I have no ability to browse, but I can still ping external servers (e.g. yahoo.com) just fine.
If I use internet for an extended period of time (e.g. web chat, youtube, etc... for several hours), then it's almost guaranteed that once I close that connection, I will be in this state.
A reboot always fixes the issue.
Originally, I was wondering if my NIC was starting to go bad, but then I realized that I was seeing multiple posts from other users about very similar symptoms.
So now I'm wondering if there was a windows update in the last few months that caused internet access to become unstable.
Any ideas?
