Lately I've noticed my router or internet is acting up.

I can't access Google, or Facebook on certain days.

This is a log from my Command Prompt.

It wont work my PC says I have no Internet Connection. I Have to connect it through my Home Server, which i think is the actual issue, because every time my internet goes out i go to my Network Switch (not Router) and unplug it (Which is the Switch that is connected to the Server) and once i plug it back in i get all of my internet back on.


I Have my Modem, 2 Routers (with WiFi), and one Switch. I've tried unplugging the 2nd Router thinking that was the issue.
