    Hi guys,

    My new R2 with Intel 6300 is currently having issue with connection. Every 5-6 mins in game (i play warcraft online) the connection dropped for a moment (3-4secs) This does not seem to be happened when I plug in the Ethernet cable. Latest driver installed after I install the chipset and video driver. :confused:

    Any idea about what might be the problem? Is there any chance this is because of 5870 driver?

    Thanks !!!!!
