The WiFi Windows 8 will turn off intermittently.

Original title: wifi turns off aspire v3 atheros windows 8.

I have a brand new acer aspire laptop v3 - 771 g-6851. Atheros ar5bwb222 wifi adapter. the WiFi will go off intermittently. Windows diagnose connection program cannot find a problem, however, the wifi connection is restored once he finishes detection. After some tests, I also managed to understand that whenever the connection is lost, I can simply activate flight mode, and then turn off again, in order to get the wireless card back on and restore the connection with my router. I have a laptop windows 7 and a macbook pro laptop, both connect to the router with no problems. I used windows update to update the driver for the atheros card. Then, I went to the acer website and downloaded their latest driver and installed (version oct 2012). Having still intermittent disconnect every few minutes. Sometimes 3 minutes, sometimes 10.

I wonder if the driver of the card wifi atheros and windows 8 are having communication problems. Alternatively, I could have a faulty wifi adapter? Or is it a magical driver out there? Is this a known problem that can get fixed with SP1 for Windows 8? Recommendations?

Hi Benjamin & Jeffrey

I had exactly the same problems with my Acer Aspire V3 - 771G with 8 Win x 64 installed.

The same Driver Atheros von too.

After trying a week and a half after the hours of work at home, I had a last option

before sending the new laptop back in Services.

I is gone from Acer Support & downloaded the latest Bios Update and the pilot

for the Wi - Fi adapter.

After uninstall of & install the new driver for the adapter, restarted Windows and had the same thing

Problem than usuall, no connection what so ever.

During the week, I tried that Nicolas had written but still did not get far.

Then I asked myself, I should or should not... Because I was so frustrated I installed the most recent Bios Update.

Open windows & whoopie it finally works again.

I hope that I could help with this message, see that there are more people out there with the same problems.

    Hi Michael,

    Thanks for the reply.

    You have installed on the computer registry cleaners?

    I suggest you to scan SFC (System File Checker) and check if it helps.

    SFC scan will search the system files corrupted on the computer and replace them.

    Use the System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7 system files

    Hi, I just refreshed my laptop that I got a few drops FPS at random. Initially, it worked fine, but after a while before instaled Norton started to cause me problems. At this time I uninstalled it and when he asked me to computer restatr now, I did. Now I'm stuck with this message window loading.

    At the moment I'm stuck on this window for over an hour and nothing has changed

    Seems that problem solved by itself. As I correctly uninstalled Norton, I just put my automatic updates and restarted my laptop again. He installed the updates with no problem and its working fine. Seems that Norton was really the problem, will keep you informed.

  • Default configuration of the windows features. Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer... HEEELLLPP!

    After restart my Asus X55oE due to necessary updates, I got «default configure features windows.» Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer. After reading several messages through other forums, I turned it and then turn again only to receive the same screen. Some of these forums say that it can take 2 hours or more because of so many updates made at the same time. I think I was trying to upgrade windows 8 for windows 8.1.

    I'm really worried about it just because I just got back this PC from ASUS and am needing to work. Can someone tell me if there are other options or make sure that it just take a while? I also read that you can actually go to the control panel > windows update > help to erase mistakes. Also, someone said that you can customize the number of updates at a time can be both. I certainly do not happen again. Help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

    You have the screen image out to another monitor (one that is not plugged in fact). How you pass to the internal laptop display varies, but most cell phone companies make a combination of keys, such as Fn + F6 or something.  Looking for a symbol that looks like a monitor.  It is usually color coded and requires activation of a Fn key.

    I recently re-installed Windows 8 using an old product key once I updated my PC using Windows 7 due to failure to boot Windows Technical Preview.
