Actually, just a quick question, seeing it works elsewhere just fine, would I need to actually look for a specific configuration in my router? Or I do try these steps up anyway?

It likely is a router setting... perhaps DHCP?

I thought as well, any pointers on what I could try with it? I know how to acess the router and everything, but when it comes to programing more than wireless and security I get a bit lost, just dont want to mess up the thing lol.

found that online : http://support.dlink.ca/emulators/wbr2310/lan.htm

Does that ressembles something I could try out?

Yeah, that's a good tool! Don't worry too much about playing with the settings; as a last ditch effort, you should have a restore defaults option. Be sure to have MAC filtering disabled and your settings for IP addresses and a DNS server are set to "dynamic" (unless you need them set to static). It's not a bad idea to check for a firmware upgrade too. 🙂

I am having the same problem.

For the first month or so everything worked perfect. Then about 3 weeks ago it would randomly drop the connection. If I disconnected and reconnected it would start back up and work fine for quite a while.

After a week or so it would drop the connection several times in a row. Disconnect/reconnect several times and it would usually work again.

More lately it has stopped connecting automatically when I start the laptop. I have to actually select connect. I check the "connect automatically" but it does not remember it. I was watching a stream on Twitch.tv and the stream was running fine but I could not connect to another webpage, youtube videos would not load etc. I found that one really weird.

I have tried everything in this thread as well as others. Nothing seems to help. Every thing I tried seemed to work for a bit (a few minutes sometimes) then it would just go back to disconnecting.

It is very random. Sometimes I will be able to get it back up with a single disconnect/reconnect and it will be fine for hours but lately it has needed several tries to get it back up and it just dumps again a minute later. What seems to help it the best is to right click on the connection and select "forget this connection" then set it up again. After I do that it reconnects on the first try.

Sometimes it will lose connection 5-6 times in a row. This is getting to be quite aggravating.

Is there anything that somebody can suggest?

Thank you.

Well I tried all the above options, worked the other day while playing a game for at least 30 mins, connections were good etc.

Trying to relog tonight and had to reset my router to actually be able to access internet, then the whole thing drops again. Asus told me to send my laptop to them, Im just not sure if the problem comes from a faulty wireless card or a ****ty router lol.

What has me wondering is it does that at certain places, while at others it works just fine.. really confused


Anyway I could test out something that would and could prevent me from sending my laptop for nothing?
