networking issues

i was wondering if someone could point me on the right path. i have been having an issue with the internet on my observatory network for some time now and can't seem to get to the bottom of it. the internet will work for a while and then drop out after couple of days. the issue resolves itself if i turn the switch off and on so i thought the issue was the switch itself, however i have tried 3 switches (2 netgear switches that fail in the exact same way and a D-link switch that was never able to access the internet). does anyone know if it is possible to get these issues due to issues prior to the switch, i.e. the network cable between the house and obs is too long or the power cable is interfering with the internet ? not sure how this would be the case if restarting the switch resolves the issue temporarily. or have i just been extremely unlucky to get 3 switches that have similar issues ...

thanks

Aidan
