    This problem has plagued me for the past 2 weeks as I have spent hours attempting to research and solve the problem. I purchased a new gaming laptop and there have been serious internet issues. Whenever I download any large files such as a game from Steam or GTA 5 from the rockstar launcher, the wifi will eventually cut out in a couple of minutes. This requires me to use the troubleshooter which usually says "the default gateway is unavailable" or something similar. Even when I am on youtube or browsing reddit, the internet will cut out randomly for a couple of seconds and then quickly return. The worst part is that somehow when the download speeds start declining and when the internet eventually disconnects, it causes the internet from my router to shut off as well. This turns off the internet in my phone/ other family members internet/ other computers which are also on the 5G wifi band. However, using 2.4ghz, I am pretty sure there are no problems but this is significantly slower and I obviously don't want to be limited to this. I even went to my neighbors house to see if the issue was just with my router but it is actually with the computer. Even with my neighbors 350/550 internet speeds, when the laptop is connected to the 5G network, the internet eventually cuts out when downloading a large file. I have seen the same exact issue described by others https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...nloading/82045e85-5873-4e75-9ca0-daf3d570d522 and https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...ng-large/6b9e586d-e9b2-407d-b6ae-f6dda7dbe216 and especially https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...loading/4840ca7a-9a39-465f-b5cc-c56285382047#. But not a single one of those threads were able to solve the problem or atleast the solution was never posted. I have tried everything to fix the network adapter/ default gateway not available issue from uninstalling the adapter, updating the adapter, choosing a older driver, using "netsh int ip reset" and the cmd flush dns. I changed the power management settings and more. I just don't know what to do anymore.

  3. Wifi continuously disconnects


    This just started happening only a few days ago, I'm not sure what might have caused it, but my laptop will suddenly disconnect from my wifi network. sometimes it won't disconnect, but just stop receiving/sending packets. I can tell this because suddenly my pages are stuck loading and skype is trying to reconnect, but nothing happens until I manually disconnect.

    I have tried
    • Troubleshooting

      But I usually get "Your proxy setting could not be recognized" or something, even though I don't have any proxy settings.
    • Uninstalling and then reinstalling the latest driver for my wifi card
    • disabling power saving for the wifi card as talked about here
    • Everything mentioned on the Microsoft page here

    This has been driving me crazy, ethernet works fine. I can connect my phone to wifi and tether it to my laptop, so this shouldn't be a problem with the router.

    Raid-0 Randomly Disconnects

    Asus maximus iii with PII 945
    Raid-0 configuration with 2x seagates

    The hard drives will randomly disconnect and reconnect. This is a huge problem when playing a game and it suddenly errors out because the hard drive will disconnect, then immediately reconnect.

    I am going out to get some better SATA cables (these are questionable).

    Any ideas why this would happen?
