Steaming Directly to YouTube Issue

I just starting using Chrome to play my Stadia games, been using a ChromeCast Ultra, and since this feature has become available, I am having a weird issue.  I am able to activate a stream directly to YouTube, but after about 5 minutes or so, my connection is killed to Stadia entirely, meaning I disconnect from the game I'm playing for about 20 seconds, then am reconnected, but the stream is killed as well.  Happens every time I try to use the feature.  I've also notice that computer shows my network connect has been lost entirely for a brief moment.  Playing games normally, without stream feature, work fine via Chrome.

Hey @MaximusX800 

This is correct if your connection on the PC breaks off the Youtube stream, even if the game is still running on Stadia, as soon as you close the Stadia window or your internet connection is lost, the YT stream ends.

What have you tried on your PC?

Yes obviously if my PC's connection drops, I'll completely disconnect from the service.  But as stated, this only happens when I try to use the Stream to YouTube feature.  Playing a game normally does not have this affect.

It could be an issue with my PC's NIC, I have tried updating my BIOS and changing drivers, but that did not help.  Next I will try a secondary NIC.
