League of legends bug with wifi and ethernet port

Hey! So I've recently discovered that if you are connected to league of legends(whether in be in a game or client) through wifi and decide to connect an Ethernet the game dc's you. This can be quite annoying because I was recently in champ select and decided to connect my ethernet cable to my laptop and got dc'd and now have 5 minutes of waiting per game when It wasnt my fault. This also happened when I was playing a game, I decided to connect my ethernet port mid way through game and had to restart the game because it dc'd me.

It is not a LoL issue. Actually, when you move from WiFi to Ethernet (or vice-versa), your operating system asks your router for a new connection. That's why you 'DC'. You might have the same behaviour with different applications, not only League.

At first I though it wasnt an LOL issue, but then I tested it out and every other applications works fine, didnt find a problem with any other online game or app.

it is a lol issue, and it's recent. A few months ago i was able to connect my ethernet cable mid-game and after a couple seconds of high ping, the game would be connected through ethernet and the ping would be really low. But recently, whenever i connect the ethernet cable, the game disconnects completely and i have to restart it. so it is a LOL issue.
