Hearthstone has consistently caused my internet to shut down for 20 mins-hour at a time the past 3 nights while playing the game. It potentially has something to do with Arena as I decided to use the 6 extra Arena Tickets to try out the new Arena. Though it may be in standard as well, I have not tried testing that yet as I really don’t feel like taking my internet offline for that long voluntarily.
I found a reddit thread with a similar issue that suggests the issue is related to homes using CPL’s (power line adapters) which I thought was funny because I believe that is what’s in my home. I also use a new Orbi Mesh Router that has worked very well across a bigger home up until recently with my experience with Hearthstone.

I just spent a lot of money on the game and would like to be able to play it. I have already lost 4 of the 6 arena tickets due to the crashes. If there is anything that can be done to look in to this it would be greatly appreciated. I am also open to suggestions that are not the ones found in the reddit thread, as the last crash I experienced I had a stream open on my other monitor like they had suggested but it still caused the crash.
