Steam Client constant disconnect/reconnect

[Jjthejetplane3]

ISSUE
Steam Client repeatedly and constantly disconnecting and 2-5 seconds later, reconnecting.

It used to be every now and again this would happen and I was told that is Steam doing their update. But the increased frequency of this is unreal. Any where between every 1-10 minutes Steam will disconnect and "No Internet Connection" will be displayed at the bottom where "Manage Downloads" is. (Longer times are those moments where I didn't notice it.)

I have checked my system, ISP, internet connection (ethernet), updates, drivers, the list goes on and nothing has solved this. Is there a file I need to delete or setting I need to set to disable the disconnects? Asking around, others have mentioned similar instances.

IMPACT: Gaming is not impacted too much. Depends when it happens.

Example: If I am playing Dead by Daylight and I am in the lobby, I get disconnected and kicked from the game. If I am loading into a match, and the disconnect happens, I get sent back to menu screen. However, if I am in the middle of a match, the reconnect is quick enough that Dead by Daylight doesn't register it as a disconnect. (I am assuming), I can continue the match. Will notice a stutter though. However, if it does take longer to reconnect I get kicked from the match.

Downloads and updates take forever with the constant interruptions.

EXPECTED
Steam Client should not be disconnecting and reconnecting from the internet intermittently and persistently for any reason.

Steam Client should not be disconnecting from the internet for any reason, unless user chooses or a fatal system/application error occurs. Any updates to games or Steam Client itself that require a restart and disconnect, should be done at user's convenience or during user's downtime. However, I can understand this a little more though as long as its not frequent.
