My Internet Cord Keeps Restarting My Computer Tower

Hello, my emachines model is ET1831-03. My problem of my computer is that everytime I plug my internet cable inside my tower, my towers restars. It says "shutting down" as if i'm restarting my computer regurly. It shuts down, and it comes back on. When the internet cable is outside of my tower, it works fine, no problem at all. I re-installed my PC, it still did the same thing. Please help me! ):

Something is causing feedback to come across the line. Move the modem to another location and if you still have the issue you will need to seek out the help of an electrician.
