URGENT: WLAN disconnecting every 10-15 minutes on windows 7 laptop

hi there
i have 2 laptops, one runs xp home and other one runs win 7 ultimate, both machines have pretty much the same stuff on.
the difference is that with the XP one wireless works great with the web authentication and never disconnects, with the win 7 machine instead, it disconnects me every 10-20 minutes or so, i came up with a trick that is to keep a streaming radio on the background, that way sometimes im connected also for 2-3-4 hours but looks like it times out again after an XX amount of time.
so should i change the MTU value on the win 7 machine? that seems to be the workaround it by reading here and there....happens the very same with either firefox 3.6 and internet explorer 8.
on the win 7 machine i installed TCP-Z driver...... > TCP-Z, Best TCP/IP Patch from http://deepxw.blogspot.com/ i tried to disable it and run some tests, but nothing changes.
help much apperciated, please answer here or to my mail gabrio81ATgmail.com
thanks

    Yes, attached to the Westell 6300 is a D-Link wireless router WBR 1310. I don't have a house phone. I have a separate telephone line for the fax machine, and it has a DSL filter attached to it. I don't know what a micro-filter is.

  • Connection woes - disconnects every 1-2 minutes

    Hello folks, I'm having some frustrating issues and am hoping someone may be able to help. I'll try explain it in some kind of logical order. Problem: Everyone in the house is effectively losing connection on average every one or two minutes for around 15-25 seconds each time. This is wreaking havoc with anyone trying to use VOIP, do any gaming, stream videos etc. Setup: BT Infinity running through an Openreach modem and a Home Hub 3, with ethernet to the five bedrooms in the house via an 8-port switch. Observations: I'm using a wired connection and can see that my ethernet card isn't showing any issues when the disconnects occur. The connection / duration time in the ethernet's device settings does not indicate any disconnects. Neither does the Home Hub's. The Home Hub's lights are all blue when the disconnects occur and I've been in the room to check it (not near my computer). The IP leases don't appear to be getting renewed over-frequently (which I thought could be an issue). The connection's normal (50-70Mbps down / 5-10Mbps up) in between these problems. Disconnects are frequent but don't follow a regular pattern. Attempted solutions: Running my computer in safe mode with networking. Connecting the ethernet switch to a different port on the Home Hub (although it affects wireless devices too). Power-cycling the modem and hub. Coarse language. Meditation. So... the problem appears to be something from the hub onwards towards BT's end. I still don't know if these are actual disconnects or the connection effectively dropping to near-zero bandwidth. I have Mumble (VOIP) running and it makes it pretty clear when these disconnects occur as it tells me when it's lost connection and reconnected, as does not being able to browse the internet. Thanks for reading. Any suggestions or solutions will be gladly received!
    Solved!

    Ouch, the forums ate my formatting for that first post!
    Thanks for the reply Ray. I should mention that this is a shared house, not a family home, so I cannot always access the devices. I'm the one on the ethernet connection and I've gone into my ethernet adaptor's settings to change my IP address to a static number just below that of the DHCP range whilst leaving DHCP enabled for everyone else. After restarting my computer the connection's still dropping.
    Haven't had a chance to reset the hub yet, if that's necessary, as other people are using the connection at the moment.
    I do have the admin password for the hub but I'm under the impression a static IP address would have to be set from the devices themselves which I can't access - or can I use Home Network > Devices, check "Always use this IP address" then disable DHCP?

  • Disconnects every 5-30 minutes

    Been happening to me the last few days. I've tried to research my problem, but nothing that I've found has been able to solve on my issue. DSL light on my Westell 7500 dies every few minutes, internet goes after that. Internet light is also constantly blinking if that helps.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

    Your circuit is in poor shape. With a line like that, you should be able to get any speed you want. 7Mbps, 15Mbps, etc. You're barely holding 3Mbps which should be running at 3360kbps/864kbps sync.
    To start, please locate your NID for us and connect your modem up to the NID's test jack to see if the statistics are any better. The NID should be located in most cases, near your electrical meter or near your electrical panel. This is a demarcation for your home's wiring to connect up to Verizon's copper drop.
    See this FAQ for some more info: http://www.dslreports.com/faq/1317
    A laptop and an Extension cord is handy to have around in this case. Once you get the statistics from the modem at the NID, please post them up. We just need to see if this is a problem on your end or on Verizon's end.
    Also, if you have a landline, does your line have issues with static, humming, buzzing, or other noises?

  • EA4500 disconnects every 2-4 minutes

    Did anyone use EA4500 with L2TP connection? I really don't know what to do. I bought this router because I wanted to setup my home network with really high quality up-todate and efficient router. Previously I used Dlink DIR685. Everything was OK but lately my ISP increased internet speed up to 40 megabit per second and Dlink can’t establish connection at a speed higher than 20 mbit/sec. So I bought the best router – I thought so. Router appeared to be rather powerful – the connection was established at a speed ~ 34 mbit/sec, wifi broadcast occurred  to be also of high speed and long range. But the main and terrible problem is that the longest internet session for the last 10 days was about 30 minutes. And that is with "keep alive" setting activated. That is awful! My Dyn DNS service doesn’t have even enough time  to update my new IP in its DNS base. Of course that is way I can’t get external access to my ftp most of the time. I believe that its firmware ver.2.0.37 is very raw. And there is no any firmware on Linksys site so I can’t neither reinstall firmware 2.0.37 nor downgrade to 2.0.36. Hope this bug will be corrected soon. May be that is defect of this specific router? Did anyone faced something like this?

    In order to take full advantage of the speed and range that wireless 802.11N has to offer, both router and adapter must be wireless 802.11N capable. So, check the wireless computers that you have are N-capable adapters with the updated drivers.
    Launch Cisco Connect. Click on router settings and then click on 'advanced settings' and click ok.
    This will open the router's web interface. Click on the wireless tab at the top. Then click on manual. After this, Lower the MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) from 1500 to 1400 or less (usually found on your routers main/ basic setup page). Here is the link for determining and setting up the correct MTU size: http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=fbf8e8564632422eaa8ea80bf9dcba64_386.xml&pid=80&re...
     Then check the connectivity status..

  • My ichat keeps disconnecting every 5 minutes.

    I got a new router and my internet and everything is working fine except for my iChat, which keeps disconnecting every couple of minutes. It's getting pretty annoying as it signs me off in the middle of a conversation. How do I fix it?

    Hi,
    By default most are set to the middle of the range they have

  • ICHAT disconnects every five minutes...

    My iChat disconnects every 5-10 minutes saying the connection was lost -- even though the browser still works! This only happens at my home with my wireless router.
    Everywhere else I've used iChat (on other connections) it stays connected..
    HELP!

    Hi,
    Welcome to the    Discussions
    A Browser and even the Mail app if you use it only use the internet now and then.
    For Mail this is when mail is collected or sent.
    For a Web Browser it is each time you change page (Some pages automatically refresh to keep the adverts up to date)
    You may only notice a slight pause in a browser if it is waiting for the Internet to come back.
    iChat is a truly "Always ON" app
    With any Buddy list that logs in to AIM it will instantly indicate any change in status of a Buddy (On-line, Off line, Status message Changes).
    As a result any issue with the Internet connection no matter how short will normally get the buddy list to fold (say Disconnected).
    If this Home router is Wifi try changing the channel it uses so not to get interference from other nearby devices.

  • EA 2700 disconnecting every once in awhile. (30/60minutes)

    Heya,
    I'm having issues with a newly bought EA 2700 router, I'm getting disconnected every 30-60 minutes. (It's a brief disconnect for about 10seconds, perhaps a huge packet loss or something?)
    I've tried connecting directly to the modem and that seemed to have fixed the problem, so I think that it is a router issue...?
    Perhaps somebody here knows how to fix this. Would be greatly appreciated.
    Edit: I'm connected with a wire. Also, my download/upload/ping is 35mbps download, 35ish mbps upload, and 8ms. (I have a 35mbps connection so that's fine) But when I connect my PC to the modem directly, my MS becomes 5, and my upload jumps to 77mbps. The download stays the same... I thought that was quite strange. ;o

    Hmm alright. I've already reset it multiple times, also reverted it to factory settings twice. But I keep disconnecting every hour orso. The firmware is up to date as well. My NIC is running at 1.0 gbps, I'm not sure where I can see what the router is at however. But I assume 1gbps as well? I've tried disabling UPnP, disabling IPv6 at the network adapter. I also tried to set the router to Bridge Mode, that made my upload go up to 77mbps again and my Ping down to 5, but I disconnected every few minutes for a while, then the day after (I went to bad cause it was driving me insane) it seemed to work for a while, but then I started getting disconnected for brief moment again. So I put it back to automatic DHCP config.
    Edit: I also tried to empty the %temp% folder, that seemed to help, but not for long. (Perhaps not at all.)
    Edit2: I also replaced my network cable twice, but seeing as the issues went away when I plugged directly into the modem I figured that that couldn't be the issue either...
    Edit3: I keep remembering things that I tried to do in order to fix this, I also reinstalled my network drivers. ;-)

  • WLAN disconnect after 20 minutes of streaming with AirTunes

    Hi,
    I’m using the AirTunes-Feature to stream my music form my computer to my amplifier. I’m working with a Lenovo (IBM) Thinkpad T61 with Windows XP SP2.
    The streaming works well for about 20 minutes. After that my WLAN network-interface disconnects form the WLAN. I have to use the windows repair function to get iz restarted.
    I’ve already disabled all energy-saving settings, updated the WLAN driver and disabled the firewall but the problem still remains. Maybe this problem isn’t really related to iTunes, but perhaps someone in this forum has an idea anyway...
    Thanks a lot and best regards from Hamburg,
    Dirk

    If it's every 20 minutes, that sounds like some kind of timer setting.
    So look for any kind of setting that is 20 minutes?

  • Airport keep disconnecting every few minutes

    Hi,
    I don't know why, but my airport keeps disconnecting every few minutes, although it reconnects after that.
    I'm sure there's no problem with my router since other PCs in my home are fine.
    It's totally fine when I use my windows in the macbook (via bootcamp).
    Anyone has the same problem or anyone knows the solution?
    Thanks.

    I've had this issue for about a week and it has made my Macbook nearly impossible to use for anything other than local disk work.
    Last night I tried running the standalone upgrade and it worked beautifully, however, upon booting up this AM I'm back to square one, constantly dropping the connection, ran the standalone update again and back in business with no drops.
    While this is appears to be my temp workaround I don't want to be doing this on a daily basis.
    HELLO APPLE what is the deal ?

  • Skype Disconnected Every Few Minutes

    I upgrade my service from wireless to uverse and that includes phone, cable and internet. Since then I  noticed that when I am on a call on Skype, I get disconnected every few minutes even though I am still connected to the internet.  Didn't have this problem before.

    I've been having the same problem, and so I tried the solution suggested above. However, I still get disconnected after being away from my computer for just a few minutes. Although we have wireless and I thought that perhaps this is the reason I get disconnected, my husband can be using the internet on his computer at the exact time that I get disconnected, so I know that I'm not losing the wireless signal. Any other suggestions?
    Thanks
    Katherine

  • DSL Connection disconnecting every minute

    I'm having major issues. I'm in California and as of 6:20pm August 2nd, 2009. My connection has been disconnecting every minute. I restarted my computer and turned my modem off. When I'm browsing through the Internet it disconnects me, and when I try to browse through websites it says "Waiting for website" its getting really annoying. Is there disconnecting issues to anyone in California, especially Southern California?
    Keep in mind I've never had this sort of problem before. Is like Verizon doing some kind of work on their DSL lines?
    Message Edited by MEMDB on 08-02-2009 06:45 PM

    Here is what most of all that stuff means..
    Margin (dB) - Signal to noise margin. 6 is pretty bad possibly unusable at times, 20 is very good. You normally want 12dB or better IIRC from back in my DSL days. The higher the number, the better to a point.
    Line Attenuation - Measure the amount the signal has degraded. Below 20dB is excellent, above 50 is poor, fill in the dots for anything in between.
    Transmit Power - The higher the number, the more power is required to transmit. This number will vary based on the other numbers.
