My wifi in my house disconnects every time the phone rings. I have tried channels 1, 6, and 11 and it doesn't make a difference. It can't be the frequency of the phone/router because the same phone and router worked fine a few weeks ago without disconnecting, but all of a sudden one day the phone started disconnecting my wireless.
My university has wireless in the dorms, which is great but it randomly disconnects me from the network. I don't have such problems on any of my mobile devices, so I'm convinced there's a Windows tweak that
I own a notebook. i have this problem that my wifi connection just disconnects shows a small X on the down right side. just like that randomly. and it wont reconnect, only when i restart my computer it works again. it happens like 10 minutes after i boot my PC. what can i do to prevent it ?
On my HP dv6-2010eq laptop with Atheros WiFi chipset the WiFi connection drops at 'random' intervals after the laptop has been started. The only thing that solves this issue (albeit for short) is manually disabling and then re-enabling the WLAN device from Network Adapters.This manifested few months ago, alas I didn't recall what I might have changed back then.Sometimes it drops almost immediately after boot, sometimes it takes hours to do so... The lappy has 3 user accounts. Exactly the same behavior on all three of them.Now, the only thing I could see as a possible reason from the event logs is that right before the drop an event 'WLAN Autoconfig has successfully stopped.' occurs. Without any further explanation.So far, when I boot in Safe Mode with Networking this issue doesn't present itself for as many hours as the laptop runs.Tried disabling few programs (firewall, antivir, etc.) but still the same...

(Problem 2)got really annoyed with the cursor rings
(Problem 3)and experienced slow pen action.
Working for severeral days with these issues, uninstalling, reinstalling, deleting preferenses for the wacom intous 3 tablet, delaying the wacom driver load... and so on.., did not help that much. Nothing I tried worked out completely perfect. Therefore I made a decision to follow the procedure below, - to solve all of the problems mentioned, and it's working!I write this to hopefully spare some people the unnecessary time and frustrations with these problems. Win 7 are equipped with software for Tablets PC's, which's interferring/messing up the wacom tablet driver.(The lost driver)I was thinking; do I need the Tablet PC in Win 7? Answer: No! I have a Notebook.But it didn`t work out just to disable the Tablet PC in "Computer management, Services." (Right click on My Computer, Manage, Services And Applications, Services)is drastic and pretty time consuming, but for me absolute necessary for a permanent fix.I saved all my settings and files, reformatted and reinstalled Windows 7 and all the programs.
I followed this algoritm:Reinstalled Windows 7 First: I did not plug in the wacom tablet, and did not install the wacom drivers at this point.Installed all my programs EXCEPT Wacom drivers, did all the updates for windows and my programs except anything regarding the wacom tablet (The cursor rings)cursor rings from the pen following this article: Configuring Windows 7 and your Pressure-Sensitive tablet to avoid cursor(The driver)Restarted the computer Disabled the Tablet PC in "Computer management, Services," because I don`t need this application at all. (Double click on "Tablet PC" or right click / properties, disabling)Restarted the computer to be safe, but I could possibly just stop the service Now, I installed the wacom driver, making sure I installed the driver BEFORE plugging the tablet. I used the current driver version Wacom pro615-3a_int.exe.Then I checked to see if there was any windows update to my wacom tablet, (control panel, windows updates) but there wasn`t any. If there would be one, I will make sure to disable it, because I don`t want Microsoft to mess with my tablet!(The slow pen action)I changed the settings in Control panel for Pen and Touch:Selected the Flics tab and
- deselected "Use Flicks to perform common actions quickly and easily"
- deselected "Display flicks icon in the notifications area"Selected the Handwriting tab and
- Selected "Don`t use automatic learning, and delete any previously collected data"Hitted the OK button. (These settings will only slow down the pen action, despite what it says)
I have to critiscize The Microsofts, as said - giving me severeal days with frustration and destroyed productivity?
When both the wireless NIC and the physical Ethernet NIC are both connected to a network that has an active Internet connection, which one will the host use for network data?
Will it randomly use both to get data, or will it choose the faster connection?
My wife has a new Acer netbook which came with 7 Starter. I upgraded it to Home Premium 32bit. She is complaining that after closing the lid, or hibernating, or sleep mode, it take at least two minutes before the netbook connects so that she can use the internet. My two laptops do not have this problem at all. All three machines use the same router.
The signal strength icon on the system tray shows a yellow blob which stays until a connection is made. It doesn't always happen, but enough for hair tugging sessions!
I'd like to buy a device that will (wirelessly) stream content to my bedroom. Here is what I currently have setup: In my living room, I have a dedicated media PC with Windows 7 Ultimate.On that PC I download the TV shows and movies I want to watch.Typical format is mkv and maybe some avi.
I would like to be able to watch some of these shows in my bedroom as well. The layout across the house does not allow for a hard-wired setup; it is completely out of the question. Is there a device that I can setup in my bedroom that will allow me to wirelessly stream these files?
I have been using CorelPrint HousePhoto House Ver.5.0, which is great for editing photos and any kind of picture under Windows XP. It does not work with Windows7.There is something like it from Corel at a reasonable price $ 39.99, called Paint Shop Photo Express 2010; tried the free evaluation, but it has a limited set of tools for editing, far less than Corel Photo House or Corel Photo-Paint. As an example, the clone tool is very ackward to use.
I used to use an old XP desktop with direct connection and it stayed connected, used my vista laptop with direct connection and it stayed connected, and now with my new Windows 7 desktop the internet does not stay connected. It just disconnects and reconnects in a split second. This interferes while I'm playing games (3 different games), it'll tell me I have lost connection, and when I check my internet connection it says I'm connected. Sometimes I see the little internet connection icon on the bottom say X then a little loading circle then back online in a second.
I want to keep both my wireless and LAN working and control my routing using advance option of meric. I want to use my LAN for my local devices and use wireless for internet. My problem is that as soon as I enable my LAN connection, my wireless gets disconnected.
When I installed this Windows 7 the network worked properly, but the problems appeared when my friend installed Windows 7 (we live together) which made our internet flip. Same time one XP-box was working correctly. Most of the times only one of us (Windows 7 users) had working Internet connection.
He got tired of it and went back to XP, and now he has working internet which leaves me the only Windows 7 user in this network. The problem is that sometimes my network just disconnects. I have tested with DHCP/whitout (sometimes it works with different settings, sometimes not). Couple days ago the inet told me that I have incorrect DNS -servers (I have correct) and I discovered that "routing & something.." service was disabled, and enabling it made me get internet access.
When I reboot my computer, it connects to "Network 4" (Network 2 is the place I get inet) and I have to reboot routing service to get it to connect Network 2. The icon in the tray has the red X on it but I'm still typing here.
My network includes this computer, 2x Win XP computers which all are connected to a D-Link router which is connected to our cable modem box.
And another thing.. When I do ipconfig /renew (or some specific thing) it says file not found.. It must have been corrupted somehow, cos it worked early on this computer.
So how can I use this OS with fully operating internet?
I'm trying to access a share on a Windows 7 machine from a media player. My authentication goes through and I connect fine for 10-30 seconds, but then the connection just times out. I can reconnect from the media player, but it always disconnects again.
I've already changed the "Network security: LAN Manager authentication level" to "Send LM & NTLM responses". I wasn't able to connect at all before that.
I noticed that I get an OS related internet disconnect every few hours for no reason, I THINK it's every time the computer gets out of sleep. I have to reset to fix it. What may be the problem ?
I've been having this wierd problem since a few months now.Ever since I reactivated my onboard sound card (I needed to do this since my mic was making wierd noises in Skype) in BIOS one of my playback devices disconnects randomly from the list, but reappears after a restart.This is very annoying as I need that card to use the really good equalizer in my TV which makes my speakers sound great.I have three sounds cards: AMD High Definition Audio Device (From GPU, used for my speakers) <-- This is the one that disconnects ASUS Xonar Essence STX (For music production and headphone listening) SoundMAX Integrated Digital HD Audio (Used for microphone) Facts:
1. The sound card still appears and seems functional in Device Manager
2. The sound card still appears in Playback Devices, but in the "Disconnected Devices"-list
This is what I've tried:- Reinstalling drivers Deactivating/activating devices in Device Manager Installing older drivers I know my way around windows so there's no need to be beginner friendly, I'll ask if I don't understand.
Since a day or 4/5 my internet disconnects exactly every hour for a couple of secconds. I don't know how it started but its pretty annoying and i really would like some help with this problem, i searched the internet i've done a full antivirus scan couldnt find anything.
Tonight I installed Windows 7 Service Pack 1. After the installation I see there's a cross over my network connection. But it keeps trying to connect. It's like you plug in cable, disconnect cable, every 5 seconds or so. But it never manages to fully connect. It gets to the state "identifying" then cross comes back.
i did a clean install of windows 7 due to reg problems at the start of this year.before that the wifi went fine it did not disconnect of me and windows was not saying that it can find the network.so the problem is that when i am in my room it runs very slow at times and disconnects and windows says there is no wifi but if i move outside my door it finds it and connects i find this odd since windows says it a good connection almost full bars and speed running at 54(the top speed) and 48 it the connection speed and signal drop down low at times (but only in my room no where else) any ideas?

My remote PC is running Windows 7 Pro while my laptop is running Windows 7 Home. I am using RDC version 6.1.7600.16385 on both my laptop and my remote PC but after I connect to my remote PC using RDC and I minimize the RDC screen on my laptop, after maybe 10 minutes, it disconnects. If I maximize the RDC screen, it will reconnect after 30 seconds or so but what setting do I tweak to stop this disconnection altogether or at least lengthen the time before it disconnects to 30 minutes?
My laptop, running Windows 7, has been experiencing problems with staying connected to the internet. Sometimes within 10 minutes the internet is lost twice. It automatically reconnects after a couple minutes and it's smooth sailing from thereon out. Then it could be a couple of hours later before it disconnects again.here doesn't seem to be a clear pattern as to when it shuts off connection.I've updated the drivers, tried to remove as much as I could from the start up programmes as well as the services, though I am not sure how to check if there are software conflicts. I've used CCleaner to clean up as much as I can, including the registry. I have tried Belarc for the first time to try and look into problems, but am not well versed in it. The programmes that I know of that remain connected to the internet while my laptop is on include AVG, Firefox/Chrome, Skype, Windows Firewall. I am not sure what other kind of info I can provide, but could post running programmes or anything else you would suggest.
I've recently been having this problem where whenever my wireless internet disconnects, it's indicates it's reconnecting but never actually connects. I've tried turning the connection adapter on and off but it's still stuck saying it's reconnecting.
I have hp dv6 laptop with amd cpu and win64 installed and I get usb composite device and integrated webcam randomly disconnects and connects without obvious cause. I checked the cam cables and no problem found the mic module works fine.
I powered it back on and all was well save my CPU fan being rather loud. Closer inspection revealed a blade broke off the fan. I replaced the fan thus morning and it seemed to run fine.I had an issue connecting to the internet, so I powered off, reconnected all the cables and rebooted the router and modem, and it seemed to fix it.I went on using the computer and got a dialogue box telling me that the internet disconnected. I attempted to reconnect and it failed. A couple of minutes later my computer froze. I had mouse control but that's it. I gave it a hard restart and it still didn't connect.I went out with a friend, came back and it connected no problem.I was playing a game and saw the internet disconnected again, then PC froze again.I restarted then ran avg, no problems
