    Hi,

    I have an Asus G74SX with Atheros adapter and it's randomly disconnecting for a few seconds. I tried reinstalling Windows and atheros drivers from their site with no success. I cant tell you how annoying it is when its getting you out of online games. I want to mention its not router side cause i have other laptops that works fine in the same time.

    Please any help would be apreciated.


    Atheros AR9002WB-1NG Wireless Adapter version 9.2.0.113

    Are you connecting with -n at 40MHz? If so, try a lower Mhz value or b/g connectivity.

    Any Antivirus or Malware scanning taking place while you are gaming?

    DPC Latency Checker may help identify drivers contributing to latency on your system.

    You might also check your router's log to troubleshoot the problem. The System or Application Event Logs on your G74SX may also have Errors or Warnings that point to some problem.
