Network sharing keeps dropping out


One of the major causes of network connection drop-outs is the power management option in the Ethernet properties




have a look at the Power management setting for the Ethernet connection and ensure that the indicated power option is not set as this will switch off the connection after a period of inactivity of the port.

Sharing a USB drive over wifi network

Ok, I found the answer. Simply by renaming the computer in the living room solved the issue.

Thanks for the answer from another post

Perform the following troubleshooting steps and check if it helps.

• 
  go to "Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\System"
  
• 
  under the "Computer name, domain and workgroup settings" click the shielded "change settings" option (far right)
  
• 
  on the "Computer Name" tab, press the "Change" button (bottom right)
  
• 
  rename the computer to anything other than what it is now
  
• 
  follow the restart prompts
  
• 
  using another computer you should now be able to use windows explorer to refresh the computers on the network (under "Network" drop list) and access the newly named computer, it will ask for credentials (username and password) in my case that is the
  targets Microsoft id and password, this grants full access to anything shared on that computer
  
• 
  repeat these steps on any other computer not allowing access on the network
  

Keep in mind all of my sharing permissions are open with full control, and remember as an example if A is on A’s computer and he wants to gain network access to computer then he has to enter Microsoft username and password

Also I would suggest you to download and install the latest drivers from the manufacturer’s website.
