Hi. Im pretty sure this isnt a only Minecraft thing (I only know it affects MC and Chrome, haven't tried other browsers.)

But, anyhoo. When I attempt to go on Minecraft, everything goes fine for about roughly 5-10 minutes, but then I begin to lag (Not FPS lag.) and I soon loose connection with the following error:

Connection Lost

Internal Exception: io.netty.handler.timeout.ReadTimeoutException

However, when it happens on MC, it also happens to not be able to connect to the internet (Takes a very, very, very long time to load.) However it never stays long enough to actually show the page that says it cannot connect to the internet, and everything is fine again.

Also, when this happens and I'm either in a Skype call or TS, it doesn't act like I'm loosing connection. My messages on Skype however, do not send. But everyone else can hear me crystal clear and I can hear everyone else just fine.

This is getting really annoying and I would appreciate some help from someone.

EDIT: Youtube videos also stop loading.

Sounds like an internet problem, first thing would be to test the speed.

If you could test your internet speed here, and post back with the results, that'd be great.

Results. Oddly a lot different than my last test, it wasnt near as bad.

Odd.... Those speeds should be more than enough for Minecraft.

So, you said "When I go on Minecraft, it begins to lag (not fps lag)" I'm assuming you mean on multiplayer.

So, could you try a different server, and also try singleplayer and see if it causes problems then?

If it causes problems on singleplayer too, then it'd lead me to believe that there is something bottlenecking on your computer, causing everything to work slowly.

I havent tried Multiplayer but its the same way for other servers, small and big. I'll try singleplayer when it begins to act up again.

No, it doesnt occur on single player. I left it up for about 3 hours and it didnt loose connection like on multiplayer.
