Any particular reason?

I wish I knew. I used to work in Pc support, but this has got me a bit baffled. It’s one of those intermittent things. The router seems fine, the signals Ok, the line speeds variable but it always has been. Use a USB network adaptor, same issues. Tried turning off, unplugging, all the normal things, + 101 other things. The lines been checked, tried different sockets. You name it I’ve probably tried it. It seems to be its either a fault on the pC other than the network card or the router doing something strange which is upsetting the PC but not the iPad or android phone.

If anyone’s got any brilliant ideas they will be appreciated, but be aware I’ve cleared history, run all sorts of checks, defragged the drive etc. Etc. Etc. It’s been getting progressively worse, rather than relating to a particular update. I even took the PC to a neighbour, and it worked fine, but when I brought it back it worked fine here - for a day! So that proved nothing.
