Windows seems to report No Internet after a while of the app being open

So I'll connect to Open, my LAN connection shows it has Internet. But then maybe a couple hours later (defiantly the next day if I leave it connected) the LAN icon changes to the Globe icon showing no Internet. Outlook and Dropbox then both stop functioning telling me they don't have internet. However basically everything else works perfectly fine (browser based stuff like slack, or literally every web browser).

I'm on the latest version, but it's been happening for at least a year... anyone else, is there a fix?
