  1. How do I identify the device(s) connecting/disconnecting from my laptop?


    I keep hearing the chimes for a device or devices being connected to my laptop. I'm also hearing the disconnect tones. Sometimes immediately after they connect, sometimes later. If I open Devices manager, I can see it refresh periodically, but I can't determine what is appearing/disappearing from the list.

    Is this logged somewhere? The DeviceSetupManager Operatational log looked promising, but I don't think it's helpful. Is there somewhere else I should look?

    Wireless connection for my laptop disconnects

    Does it die slowing, like over time the connection degrades ?. Have you timed the disconnections or are they random ?.
