Only One PC Keeps Disconnecting From LAN / WAN?
Sep 14, 2012
I got a new gigabit router to up grade my old one in my current home network. The old router worked with everything including the problem PC. The new router works with everything (wired and wireless) except one PC.
To narrow it down I connected only that one pc with a wired connection to the router, removing all other devices. The problem still exists, so it's either a router or pc issue.
The pc will connect fine and I can access everything on the LAN and internet for about 5 min. Then I get limited connectivity and I need to do a release/renew to get the connection back.
While the PC is dropping all other devices that I connect to it work fine with no interruptions (wired and wireless).
I tried reseting the router, reinstalling NIC driver, setting a static IP, and messing around with the speed and duplexing options on the NIC. I plug in the old router, the pc connects with no issues.

So far I have tried doing a factory reset, power cycling, upgrading my firmware, and changing my channel [even though there weren't any interfering networks on the same channel in my area].
This problem started a while ago and has been going on for several months now. I will lose access to the internet for a brief period of time [1-2 seconds], but this is very annoying. I will exit conversations on MSN, downloads will stop sometimes, and it is virtually impossible to play online multiplayer games since I keep losing connection every five minutes or so.
The connection works just fine when I connect my modem directly to my PC.

internet won't stay connected for more than 2-4 minutes at a time. I recently got a new modem, as recently as two days ago. It connects fine but within 2-4 minutes it disconnects then reconnects itself within 20 seconds. It's a plusnet modem and in the corner of my screen I have a little computer screen with 3 signals coming out if it which flash. It's called Wireless Network Connection Status. Beside it are 4 bars not too dissimilar to mobile signal. They too are green and when I click into it it's called Dell Wireless WLAN Card Utility.

Haven't been here in a while after going to grad school. My internet keeps on getting disconnected, and I keep having to unplug the power cord, wait 10 seconds, and then it works again. But this has been happening quite frequently. Is it because I need a new router? It is Linksys SRX 200 router it says.

i recently bought a wireless USB adapter so i can connect to my router as my older one broke. The one i had before worked fine and was easy able to connect to my router with high connection, but with this new adapter i can still connect but have pretty low signal like 2 or 3 bars and whenever i try downloading anything or try watching films or just surfing the web for like 10 minutes it says limited access with a yellow exclamation mark on the signal bar and the only way to reconnect to the internet is to first disconnect and reconnect every time.

nic shows disconnected every second, shows "no cable connected" Windows 7 pro, PC next to it (same model, same settings) works fine, switched cables and the one I am on works just fine on either cable. Updated drivers, ran diagnostics, no fault found. DHCP; tried changing link speeds, tried EXACT same settings as PC I am on. Domain settings correct; PC will connect on a different subnet.

I've recently had this trouble where whenever I'm playing a game [such as Sims 3] my Laptop Internet connection suddenly disconnects and I am unable to reconnect to my Internet since it doesn't come up on the connection list, so In the end I have to restart and it all happens again if I start playing again.

My HP home vista keeps on disconnecting.I use dial up. The IPS service provider said to plug the computer directly into the phone jack without using the splitter which is a plug that has two openings(1 for phone and 1 for the computer in the event that the splitter is bad) I tried this and as soon as a connection is made about a minute later I'm disconnected again. Any ideas as how to resolve this problem? Also I was told that if I have DSL that this wouldn't be a problem

For the past couple of weeks my internet has suddenly disconnecting on almost a daily basis.Windows troubleshooting the problem always fixes it in seconds and I usually have no further problems during the day but it's getting annoying and I'd really like to know what the issue is and how to fix it.It happened again just now and Windows Diagnostics found the following problem: "Local Area Connection" doesn't have a valid IP configuration.I'm running Windows 7 and using an ethernet cable, no wireless connection.

I have had this problem for a week now. We have a desktop, PS3, and 3 laptops connected all at the same time. No problems with the desktop, PS3 and one of the laptops so far, but my Asus A53E and the HP Pavilion keep getting disconnected every few minutes! I recently installed a Linksys router (just to try it out) and it didn't really do well so I returned it and switched back to our old router which is the DLink DIR-625 router. It was doing okay for a few days and then suddenly it just started going crazy. Both the desktop and the PS3 are connected to the router through cable, but the other laptop (Dell) is not. I don't understand why it's just the Asus and the HP that get disconnected a lot. I already tried updating my drivers and reformatting my laptop, but still nothing. I don't want to call our ISP (Shaw) and D-Link because the internet works fine on the other 3.Additional Information:
-Modem
-Microsoft Security Essentials (on the Asus)
-avast! (on the HP)

I have a Netgear Wireless USB Adapter (WNA3100) for my PC. The router is in the other room (approx 5-6 meters away) connected to my flatmates laptop. The adapter worked fine for almost two months, but at the past 2 weeks it keeps disconnecting in every 2-15 minutes, for 1-3 minutes. I have Windows 7 and I'm not familiar with networking issues so the only thing I did was to reinstall the driver and update it, but this didn't work.

About 2 weeks ago my router began acting up. It disconnects when I'm just browsing, downloading or streaming a video. I tried everything! I changed the channel on the router, resetted the router numerous times. I connected the ethernet cable from my pc directly to the modem to see if it was in fact my router and not the modem. My pc never disconnected once while connected to the modem. In order for me to download something or stream a video I have to connect my pc to the modem and it is becoming a pain!

I recently bought my new Alienware laptop and it would connect to the wifi but no internet. Sometimes it works for a second or 1 minute. Now it's just a triangle with an exclamation mark saying it has no internet access. I already tried the power management. I am using a router; the other laptops in my house is fine. Could it be because the router couldn't support the internet of the Alienware? I remember seeing routers saying "Good for gaming!" something like that. I've been having this problem for 2 days now.

Happens every few hours, but is fixed by reconnecting my router. Although this is inconvenient because I run an IRC chat and a small web server. I'm not sure if those would cause such a problem, but I hope not

Some of you may remember my name from the PS3 posts I had a while back. I completely abandoned the PS3/internet connectivity issues due to it going unsolved for about a year now, I just moved to a new house recently. I can understand that it will take a bit for the family to set things up like reliable internet connectivity and what-not. But perhaps there is something that I can do relatively quickly to fix this. Perhaps it is problematic software on my computer? Here's what is happening: The internet disconnects. A lot. Sometimes it's once per 7-minute YouTube video, and just recently it was a record-breaking sixteen times within 20 minutes. I read some things about it being a problem with Adobe Flash player, because most disconnects happen during YouTube videos, but I can't get an update for it... the internet does not co-operate.

I am connected to the router with a cable , a router which my internet provider supplied me with.The problem used to happen before , occasionally , but the disconnecting has drastically increased lately , and these days it has become unbearable , it occurs at least once every hour , especially when i'm playing a game online or so.The disconnects last very shortly , or until i reset my router or disable/enable my network in network connections.I have 2 more laptops in the house , connected via wireless , and they've had no issues with this.The first time these problems occurred i was able to fix it just by doing the windows troubleshoot, which lead to an error saying "Default gateway is not available".I found a lot of threads on the internet regarding this issue , and tried all of them but none seemed to work.
I tried downloading newest drivers from my motherboard site first , then from Realtek's site, then deleting old drivers via DriverSweeper aswell , just in case , but it did nothing.I tried changing the Speed & Duplex to 100mbp/s Full Duplex , which has solved the issue for some , but again it did nothing.I called my internet provider , was told to use static IP address and type it in manually and if it didn't work to try plugging the cable into another slot on the router ,And after all those things , i feel like the problems is even bigger now. I now no longer get the "Default gateway is not available" error , and the only solution is to reset router or disable/enable network , which leads to the network being "unidentified" for some time before it connects.

Got a problem with my connection, it keeps disconnecting every 10 minutes or so, usually at the same time every day. Lasts for a few seconds but does not show as an interruption to the line's uptime, nor is there a warning sign in the system tray (like what usually happens when there's a disconnection).-ISP says they do not see any problems on their end-Updated router firemware, no dice-Router is a Netcomm NB6PLUS4W modem/router-Tried with both wired and wireless connections, same problem

Whenever the phone rings or my mum uses it my internet disconnects, my modem router is attached to a DSL filter so I'm not sure why it's doing this. The phone thats connected to the DSL filter that the modem router is connected to is wired but we have two wireless phones in the opposite side of the house

I have a Dell laptop and the internet keeps losing connection for a minute or so all the time. Have checked internet connection, etc and seems fine. Also, I play Xbox online and it never losses connection when Im playing so can only think that it must be laptop.

My bb connection is very unstable and disconnects randomly whenever it feels like it. I have a master socket with one extention (slave I believe its called) however there is nothing plugged into the extention at all and my telephone and bb are connected to the master with a filter. After reading a few threads I have tried some tips which were to disconnect the bell wire (number 3), replace the faceplate, and filter with new ones and try another router none of which have made a difference. I have now removed the faceplate and plugged directly into the test socket. This definitely works and keeps the connection alive for longer sometimes a whole day but then it goes again but definately no where near as often, (she says as the Internet disconnects!)We have several things connected to to router which are up to 3 laptops using windows 7 and vista, up to 3 phones and 2 xboxes however these are never all connected at once but when the connection goes it disconnects all that are connected. I have also been with 3 different providers and this has been the same with all of them. The house is only 9 years old so I don't believe it can be that the wiring is too old but maybe that there is a dodgy connection somewhere?

I got threatened by a few people for being good and my xbox live has been disconnecting a lot today and i've been unable to finish a game. then I looked into my router settings and saw this... 79 TCP- or UDP-based Port Scan So that means 79 times it did that, which is weird when you look at the rest of the router numbers.

Ok i have 2 computers, 1 that uses wired connection and the one i use is wireless. I am one room away from the wireless router so i use a wireless adapter to get internet. Lately i have been losing connection constantly and when i solve the problem by clicking troubleshoot problem it always says default gateway was lost and it fixes it. It happened like 10 times in like 10 minutes. I was wondering if theres any way to fix this. Is it my adapter or my rounter or something else?
