Internet connection is lost after 2 minutes

In our House there are 4 teenagers - all with laptops, iphones, BlackBerry, etc.

We have an internet connection to BT home hub.

Everyone can connect OK except 1 latop - if using WiFi, laptop connect only for 2 minutes and he then loses the connection to the internet.

The only way to get a WiFi connection again is to reboot the router.

The laptop works fine when connected with an RJ45 LAN cable - problem only occurs if you use the WiFi.

The laptop has Windows XP and Internet Explorer 8.

The icon on the watch of the taskbar that the connection to the router is OK, and varies from excellent to mediocre according to how far the laptop is located rom the router.

Why do I have a problem with this machine - I guess that it must be related to XP as all other machines have Vista or 7.

Hello Gavin Duffy

It may be possible but not likely.
1. the system that only stays connected for 2 minutes, this problem only occurred after the settings have been changed in the router?
2. did you check with your son that only security settings have been changed in the router?
3. have you checked to see if this system is undergoing the same questions on other networks such as Café, the bookstore free networks or network of neighbors (the permission that they allow to connect)?
Try to remove the wireless network profile and recreate.
If you use 'Wireless Zero Configuration' to manage your wireless network, go to the network connections folder ("" Start > run ", type ncpa.cpl and click OK"), make a right click on the wireless network connection, select Properties, and then click the wireless networks tab, where you can highlight and then 'remove' an existing profile.
After that you have removed, reconnect to your network and test to see if the problem still occurs.
Thank you.

  • My internet connection is lost at home after a few minutes. I re - turn on the wifi disabled, ten and it works again for a few minutes and then repeats. It works fine everywhere else?

    Relatively new MacBook OSX El Cap 11.4

    My internet connection is lost at home after a few minutes. I stop the wifi, then turn it back on and it works again for a few minutes and then repeats. It works fine everywhere else?

    Please see recommended settings of WiFi routers and access Apple points.

    Despite these recommendations, some routers will work better with the latest Mac models if you turn the radio 2.4 GHz mode in settings and only use the 5 GHz. Note, however, that very old devices Apple and some third-party devices can then not connect at all.

    Some third party routers have advanced that you may need to change the settings:

    The encryption algorithm must be AES.

    The group key interval must be 3200.

    I can't give you specific instructions on how to change these settings, because all routers are different. Refer to the documentation for the provider.

    Wireless connection to what?   Sounds like a router problem, so you can get better help a forum that specializes in this (e.g. by the manufacturer, not an a Microsoft support forum).   In addition, some ISPS will not help unless you restore a direct modem connection, if it does not work properly, often so you might be out of luck to get help from this side in any case.

    Good luck

  • HP compaq dc5100 sff: loss of internet connection on desktop after installing windows 10

    Update from windows 7 to windows 10 and I lost my internet connection. My connection is good, the son, all good router. Windows 10 seems to work great except no internet. She said "not connected-no connections are available. So is it not reconizing him actions card built in the Board of directors or what. I tried to reload the drivers. I can use any help I can get.

    Ok.

    The only suggestion I can offer would be to install the latest driver ethernet directly from BCM and see if it works.

    I think you need the first driver on the list for 32 bit.

    http://www.Broadcom.com/support/?GID=9

    You will need to manually install the driver for the adapter ethernet BCM in the Device Manager, as the file contains only the driver files and no setup.exe file.

  • Internet connection suddenly disappeared after that Win 7 updated today

    Suddenly my Windows 7 computer has no internet.  Seems to coincide with a series of critical updates that were installed this morning.  Also, I can't do a restore for some reason any.

    The network icon shows the connection to my router and indicates that the connection has internet connectivity.

    I can ping my router, but not shoot to the top of its web page in a browser (IE 11, Chrome, Firefox all tried).  I can pull up other computers on the network.

    I can one of Google's servers to 74.125.224.72 ping, but cannot pull it up in a browser.

    When I boot in safe mode with network, the results are the same.

    NO request that goes to the internet, including IE, Outlook, update AVG, etc. can find something there.

    I tried the normal stuff: restart the router, PC.  Tried a restore point, but he failed.  Even if the PC is the router's IP, I did ipconfig / renew to release and rediscover IP.  I disabled the antivirus and firewall to see if it works.

    Any help?  Desperate, because I spent hours and depend on the work of the machine.

    Thank you.

  • WiFi connectivity is lost after 12 hours on 32RL938

    Hi all
    I have a very strange and annoying questions on my 32RL938 aruond wifi connection.

    I set up the TV and connect to my wifi at home and everything is very well four approximately 12 to 15 hours.

    After leaving the TV in standby for a while (let s for example during the night) when I start it up again, I realize that, although my TV says it s connected to my local WIFI s there is no access to the drive Toshiba Places or DLNA network.

    The network connection test fails also.

    If I check on the router to the TV has a valid IP address and look connected, but no matter what ping test it s ip fails.

    The only solution I was able to identify this problem is to restart the router.

    After the reboot, the TV connects fine to my network and I can access the Internet on this subject.

    What is very strange, it's my house, I have 6 other wi - fi devices (laptop, phone android, printer, Tablet, etc.) that work perfectly well as my TV shows that there is no link.

    Because the ruter is not in my room it is quite difficult to restart every day.

    Please let me know if you experience this kind of behavior and what could I do about it. I also tried with static and dynamic ip for television, but the behavior is the same.

    > The only solution that I managed to identify this problem is to restart the router
    > After reboot, the TV connects fine to my network and I can access the Internet on this subject.

    For me, it looks like a problem of router and not as a problem of TV connection.

    But you can also check if the latest firmware is installed on your TV

    This is the network driver for this adapter for VMware vSphere 5.1

    http://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/psi/swdHome/?sp4ts.oid=3913538&spf_p.tpst=swdMain&spf_p.prp_swdMain=wsrp-navigationalState%3DswEnvOID%253D4141%257CswLang%253D%257Caction%253DlistDriver&javax.portlet.begCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken&javax.portlet.endCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken

    The current version of the driver is: 5.0.636 (February 18, 2014)

    It is possible update 2, put in a new driver by default in it or put a driver that simply doesn't work properly with this network adapter.  Is this the only nic you use iSCSI for?

    You should really spread your connections on two just physical NICs wrap one of the network adapters fail so you don't lose your iSCSI connection unless you can suffer a loss to your iSCSI and it's not a big deal.

    Here's the Vmware KB article how to check which version of the driver of network that you are currently using:

    VMware KB: Determine what storage driver or network is actively exploited on ESXi host

    The document talks using the update command to update the driver, but it is my experience that its better to just do an uninstall / install, but you can try the update, assuming that this is a driver update.  I have a feeling it will be a lower version than what is currently in place.

    You will use the following command to install or update:

    software esxcli vib install zipfilenameofdriver d

    or

    esxcli update software vib - v vibfilenameofdriver

    I also found some installation instructions in the zip file

    Hope this has helped

  • The Internet connects 'local only' after the regular updates?

    Hello

    My computer has installed its regular updates about a week ago and since then, the internet has had connection problems. It connects to the ordinary router, but it is "local only" and will not fully connect to the internet. The only solution I found to the problem is that my owner to restart the router, which is not the most convenient thing to do whenever I turn on my computer. I have windows vista with all standard Internet programs, and I use chrome. I also have a second windows computer that exposes the same problem, which is running windows 7, which has also installed updates. My roommate's computer is a Mac and is not at all account of all the problems.

    Hello
     
    1. when the question is is produced?

    2. you remember of any changes to your machine before the question?
     
    I would like you to follow the steps mentioned below
     
    Step 1:
     
    Instead of bridge, you should be able to share the connection from your laptop.
     
    a. Click Start, click Control Panel
    b. go to your network and sharing Center.
    c. on the left side, click on manage network connections.
    d. right click on your wireless network adapter, click Properties, click the sharing tab, mark the tab to share this connection
    e. click on apply, then try to connect to xbox with your ethernet cable, either incidentally, it must be a crossover cable in order to function.
     
    Step 2:
     
    Disable all security software temporarily and see if the problem still occurs.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software
     
    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats.  In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
