Killer E2500 Wired Ethernet randomly dropping internet for about 5 seconds

My Dell Alienware Aurora R8 Win10 constantly keeps dropping internet connections on a home router randomly for about 5 seconds but its so Annoying !

The PC Wireless connection NEVER drops a connection at all but the speed is much slower.

A strange thing I have also noticed is that weather radar from online TV websites, will not load in Chrome or Edge with the Wired connection.

The wireless connection will load weather radar instantly with BOTH web browsers.

I have replaced the ethernet cable several times and the Killer E2500 driver is up to date.

Any recommendations please?

Thanks......

"KILLER NETWORK SERVICE"  was causing the problem of certain webpages NOT loading such as Amazon.com

Thanks again INTEL for no assistance whatsoever !!!

Wow thanks Intel Andrew.  This product is only one year old !

You have no idea why this is happening, so Intel just no longer supports it .... NICE !

I can see why AMD is kicking Intel and my next PC will be an AMD based PC !
