I've had my computer connected through ethernet for a while now, so I decided to plug in a wall outlet. But since using this new jack has caused problems all along, every time I start loading a game my ping drops and I "lose" my connection. "Lose" is just how the system shows it because it's still showing me connected and speed tests keep saying everything is fine except for that constant dropping of the connection. I checked the jack to make sure all wires were plugged in right, and sure my drivers and windows are updated. Nothing looks wrong but it keeps cutting off. Downloads are 100 mbps while uploads drop to 25

Getting the wire connections wrong can cause big problems, so make sure your internet shows up at full speed through the router.
