Laptops give up the Internet connection intermittently

I have a portable satellite, and my wife has a Tecra laptop. We connect through a PC to the internet via WIFI.

Two notebooks remove the connection to the internet intermittently - to connect in the first place, we need to click on a few favorites in internet explore - only then either connects.

I also connected through a network of friends that is configured in the same way and the same thing happens. It has a portable older tosh which connects perfectly and does not drop the line.

We compared the settings and all seem to be the same, so something else isn't quite right.

I'm running XP (SP2), built in the LAN card (which is fine) and connect via a netgear access point, which is about 2 feet away.

I'd appreciate any help in what he makes us all crazy!

Hi Hunter

I also use a wireless connection at home. Two of my books (P20 Satellite and Tecra M1) are connected to the Belkin wireless router. Setup was simple and without any problems and I had no problem at all.

Can you please tell me what you use right now (point of access Netgear or desktopPC) for wireless connection? Use you the client or Windows to configure wireless network settings?

    Internet connection

    My laptop is down the internet connection several times daily. I can usually restore the connection to solve the problem. It restores the connection for a while but always says the same thing. «A network cable connected correctly isnot or can be broken and also problem with wireless adapter access point.» I live with 3 other people and we all use the same router and they have no problems.

    I discovered that I had the same problem of the abandonment of the Internet with HP envy. I went on the Intel site and found that they had a fix for the problem I do not know the wireless card you have that I go to your site of NIC and check and see if they have a patch for your network card. After I installed the patch for my NIC my problem disappeared. HP sent me an email with the appropriate also fix.

  • Ethernet cable to connect my windows laptop 7 to the internet. connection is very bad. It works but only for 30 minutes max.

    My internet does not work correctly. I use an ethernet cable to connect my laptop (using windows 7) to the internet. However the connection is very bad. Sometimes it works but only for 30 minutes max, and other times it does not at all, connect saying that the cable is disconnected. I tried 3 different cables to 2 different ports, then maybe the problem comes from my laptop. It connects to the wifi networks fine but not with the cable.

  • interruption of the internet connection after installing vista sp2, only a local network

    Hello
    Since I installed vista sp2 last week, I have no internet connection. Just, my laptop connects to the local network. I had already tried to uninstall sp2, but this does not resolve the issue. A restore of the system has not been successful (do not know why, windows just said failure of system restore). I also deleted my antivirus program and my firewall...
    The internet works occasionally for a short time and when I start in safe mode.
    Because I live in a House that I have to use a fix ip, gateway and dns. After you install sp2, windows says my default gateway does not match my ip address and subnet mask when I change the properties of TCP/IPv4. Using another laptop with XP, the internet connection works with the same settings.
    I would be grateful for a quick solution, without formatting ;)

    I've highlighted the TCP/IPv6 line of course ;) the button was inactive when even
    in the registry, I saw WHAT TCP/IPv6 is already disabled

    my internet actually works, but I don't know why
    I deleted the file DisabledComponets for TCP/IPv6 in the registry, rebooted, create one, rebooted and it worked
    but I do not know why :)
    I hope that my internet is still functional

  • Windows 7 Dell computer laptop connects to the router, but the internet connection is spotty/slow

    I recently installed a new Comcast wireless gateway, which includes a built-in router.  My Ipod and Ipad work perfectly with this new router connection.  My Dell laptop, however, connects to the router without a problem, but it surfing the internet very slowly and sometimes can't access it at all.  The router connection remains strong during these periods of power failure, however.  I don't get online no problem when I connect directly to the router/modem with an Ethernet cable.  Network troubleshooting does not detect a problem, I have released/updated my IP address, and made sure I had updated drivers.  The issue still [persists.  Any input on what to try next?

    Hello Scot,

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community forums.

    The description of the problem, I see that the Internet connection is very slow on the computer.

    I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing. We are here to help and guide you in the right direction.

    Maybe there's a chance that some network settings, start services application or a third party or a security software restricted it to connect properly and is responsible for the internet connection is slow.

    I suggest you to follow the steps below and see if it helps.

    Method 1

    I suggest you try the procedure described in the following Microsoft Article and check if it helps.

    Internet Explorer is slow? 5 things to try
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/help/Internet-Explorer/slow-five-tips-to-boost-performance

    Warning: Reset the Internet Explorer settings can reset security settings or privacy settings that you have added to the list of Trusted Sites. Reset the Internet Explorer settings can also reset parental control settings. We recommend that you note these sites before you use the reset Internet Explorer settings.

    Method 2

    If the problem persists, I suggest you to follow the steps described in the following Microsoft tutorial and see if it helps.

    Why is my Internet connection so slow?

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/why-Internet-connection-slow#why-Internet-connection-slow=Windows-7

    Method 3

    If after performing more high question method persist, try to perform the clean boot and temporarily disable security software and then check the speed of the Internet.

    Step 1: Perform the clean boot

    Put your system to the clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. You must follow the steps in the article mentioned below to perform a clean boot.

    How to perform a clean boot in Windows

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135/en-us

    Note: See "How to reset the computer to start normally after a boot minimum troubleshooting" to reset the computer to start as usual after a repair.

    Step 2: Temporarily disable security software.

    Disable the antivirus 

    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 attack.

    Method 4

    Since then, the issue is not resolved by disabling the security software, Windows Firewall could be the next possibility. So, I suggest, temporarily, disable the Windows Firewall and check if the problem persists.

    Refer to the following steps:

    1. Press the Windows key + R, type firewall.cpl , and press ENTER.
    2. Click turn Windows Firewall on or off. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    3. Click turn off (not recommended) Windows Firewall under each network location that you want to stop trying to protect, and then click OK.

    Caution:

    You should not turn off Windows Firewall unless you have another firewall is enabled. Turning off Windows Firewall may make your computer (and your network, if you have one) more vulnerable to damage caused by worms or hackers. You must reactivate as soon as you have completed troubleshooting.

    For more details, you can see the article mentioned below.

    Enable or disable Windows Firewall

    Hope it would help. If problem persists always post back with the current state of your computer and the result of the proposed suggestion, we will be happy to help you.

    Kind regards

  • Time Capsule has lost the Internet connection and DNS servers

    I use a Time Capsule for Time Machine via Ethernet backups for a couple of years, use it in mode bridge taking its Internet connection directly from my router and connected in turn by Ethernet to my iMac. (Most of the time that I also had wifi off on my iMac and took my Internet directly via the TC Ethernet connection.) A few months ago I upgraded to El Capitan, and the TC has lost its connection Internet (flashing yellow). A few days later I drove back to the Yosemite (for other reasons - Mail had gone mad) to restore a backup of the TC and everything was fine again for a few months. It may or may not be meaningful I plugged TC yesterday to new laptop for my wife to support for the first time, and this laptop is running El Capitan. Since then, the TC has once more lost its Internet connection and DNS settings and is stuck on flashing orange. By clicking on the 'Internet connection' status alert, tells me that the TC is not a valid IP address.

    I have reset the TC, repeatedly and reconfigured but all without success. After consulting the other discussions, I also tried giving the unit an alphanumeric name with no spaces & special characters and change the IPv6 "Link-local" configuration only, but this did not affect the result. And I updated the firmware for good measure. Then I unplugged overnight and carried out a full power cycle the steps recommended here, restart the router, TC and the computer (and performed a factory reset on the TC, while the router & computer was turned off). After doing that, the TC has become undetectable by AirPort Utility, until I have reset reconfigured once again, he and ended up in the same place.

    It may or may not be important to mention the following:

    1 when you set the TC after a reset, I repeatedly selected the option of adding to an existing network instead of create a network, but the installation wizard who ignored each time.

    2. in the installation each time, this point, I shows me the following, which seems to suggest that there is a problem but don't say so explicitly:

    I would be grateful for any advice.

    Weird how everything's going well for a few years and then crazy when you have something will change.

    El Capo adds some network problems more... but something could be fundamentally wrong with the installer.

    Your current configuration, it is apparently bridged but cannot get an IP address. The address 169.254 is give it since it's self generated.

    You need to do a manual installation. It simply means the Assistant is unable for any reason to be your network so start over and do it manually of misfortune (wow, or also possible misery, woah being where you are now!) to go...!

    1. I need to know what modem you are connected. Make and model please?

    2. the most important. What is the main router on your network or a modem?

    I gave the edge to make manual settings a few times. Somehow my instructions for Yosemite/El Capo got lost... I'll try and hunt down them. In the meantime, the basic method remains the same.

  • I lose the internet connection randomly but never lose my wireless network connection.

    I use a hp pavilion dv9500 with 64-bit vista sp2 and built in a wireless adapter that will fall randomly my internet wireless connection, but maintains my wireless network connection with an excellent signal strength.

    My (non-permanent) fixed
    I know how to reconnect to the internet, but it forces me to diagnose a repair my connection. It then displays "cannot connect to Server primary dns (75.75.75.75)"after which it gives "things to try" who never work and a button 'Reset the ip address' that I click. " repair bar will fill up to half way and go to a new screen solution that shows more 'solutions' and a "reset wireless adapter" button which I click. the remedy bar will fill and then display windows can not solve the problem and go for help. I then manually disconnect from the wireless network and my computer will automatically reconnect to the network and to the internet. It takes about five minutes to fix, but it happens so often that it is getting boring. The process will not work if I only to reset the ip address and then disconnect from the network, only to reset the wireless adapter and then disconnect, or just disconnect from the network and reconnect. I have to reset the ip address and the wireless adapter and then disconnect from the network.

    The internet connection will tend to disconnect when I watch a lot of youtube videos, when I download large files like a game on steam, or just just randomly when I use it. I'll use it for a long time and he can't let it go, but sometimes it will go down to ten minutes after I had just reconnected in a drop-down list. It happens randomly without another warning that download time will increase from 2 mb to 50 k in two seconds all about or stop the loading of a youtube video when I look at it.
    I searched everywhere for an answer, but it's as if it were a new problem for all humanity or just im the only person who does not know how to solve this problem, because there are no forums or FAQ not related to my problem. It is not so much a serious problem such as an irritating problem that appears at inconvenient times or when I just want to relax and watch a video. It takes some time to reconnect and even though I know how it would be better if my connection would just stay connected to the internet at any time.
    I have no idea what the problem could be that whenever I have find I never get related problems. all advice or solution would be great.
    I also share this modem with other three commonly used computers: a wired office and two other laptops that the two are connected wirelessly. both other laptops do not have the same problem as mine. My router is a linksys e3000 wireless router.

  • Connect a Vista PC (host) with an XP PC in LAN and share the internet connection.

    I connect to internet using 3 different notebooks with Windows Vista with a wireless connection to a router and the DSL modem. I have a desktop PC XP computer in a secluded spot in my house, who does not have a wireless card. When I want to use the internet in Office XP, I connect it to a laptop using a LAN cable.

    I was able to do that with 2 of my notebooks (set up the network and share the internet), but with the third Vista notebook, desktop XP can't get the internet connection established. I was not able to detect which is the problem.

    First question: clues to debug this problem?

    Second question: I would like to start over again and configure everything again with this third book. How should I proceed?

    Turn on Internet connection sharing on the Vista wireless network connection.  If asked what to use for the home network connection, tell him to use the connection to the Local network. Then check the State of TCP/IP on both computers:

    1. On the Vista computer, right-click on the connection to the Local network, and then click on status > details . It must show:

      • IP address: 192.168.0.1
      • Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
      • Default gateway: no
