As the title says my ethernet keeps disconnecting roughly 5 mins after plugging in the ethernet cable. If I plug it out and back in again it works perfectly for another 5 mins. I have a USB to LAN connection when I use that I have no connections whatsoever, it only happens when I plug the ethernet cable into the on board ethernet port on my laptop. The connection isn't loose and the wire isn't damaged in any way. Any ideas what's causing this? I read somewhere TLP was causing LAN issues and so I uninstalled TLP yet the issue is still their. grateful for any help received on the matter.

An update to this I wouldn't say "solved" but by disabling wifi from the network manager app-indicator my LAN never disconnects now. Must be conflicting issue between enabling wifi and enabling networking
