Hep everyone,

Let me start by saying thank you for all these years of help and guidance.

A few months ago I decided to do something about the bad performance and noise, so I opened my laptop, cleaned it and repasted it. I follow the guides in here and everything went smooth, expect I accidently cut the cable to my keyboard, but never mind that, I always use external.

I thought everything was great, but a weird problem started to appear. I would get random disconnects from the internet. I feels like if my computer gets too many connections, as I if I play a game and browse the internet at the same time I will get a short, 1 or 2 sec disconnect.

Could this be caused by hardware damage?

I've tried 2 different internet connection, at different places. One with a cable and one wireless

Any help is appreciated

 

Now that I think of it... I was at a mates house and had no problems at all..

So in 2 out of 3 places I have this problem... Must be caused by software/drivers then. Two weeks ago I need a clean reinstall, yet the problem persisted... Oh ffs this ing sucks.... so tired of it.

 

You should check the antennae are connected to your wireless card correctly.

It could be that the place you have no problems has a strong router and you can connect without issue as a result.

 

I've tried connecting by cable and wireless, makes no difference.

I recently got a new internet provider at home, giving me a 10/1 mbit connection... Could this problem simply be caused by me having low upload, so when ever my connection reaches it "max" it shuts down? So perhaps it has nothing to with my computer, but the connection?

 

Could easily be the router settings, that'd affect both wired and wireless. Maybe check out those. If you google the model of the cable router (or it might be a cable/wireless combined) and a description of the problem it is quite likely you will find some answers.

Also, if you are using a peer to peer network, like torrent, some providers will throttle the number of connections. Changing the port you are using for torrenting can fix that. There is a lot of info on it, but the problem is not as common as it used to be as using torrents has become more mainstream, so a larger number of users will complain if a provider tries to choke the connection.

 

Check your ip settings, try settings yours manually and yes check your router settings.
