Info #2 I've just remembered, if the connection has gone, windows doesn't display limited connectivity, but I think all it did in the troubleshoot (when I started it myself) is reset the adaptor. Its also hard to tell if that helps, as by the time it has worked its magic, the connection has normally fixed itself. I guess I've got 2 problems, which may be the same thing: 1: Slow connection (10 Mbps, as opposed to 25 on other devices) 2: Intermittent connection The connection may be throwing a wobbly non stop, causing the speed issue, and then dropping out for long enough causing the second problem, giving me mixed error messages. :confused: Thanks!

Hi all, I have a persistent internet problem, It started on windows 8, however as I've now upgraded to windows 10, I assumed this was the best place to voice my issue. Ever since I moved property, My internet has had an intermittent issue. It is rather slow, when compared to my phone, and other devices that use the Wi-Fi, but more annoyingly it is constantly dropping out. In chrome I get 4 errors, none more so than the other from what I can remember: DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NO_INTERNET ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT ERR_CONNECTION_RESET ERR_NETWORK_CHANGED Sometimes it is fine for an hour or so (apart from being constantly slower) When it dies it automatically finds itself again after about 2 minutes. It makes little to no difference if I disconnect/reconnect to the Wi-Fi When it has no connection, my other devices still work fine on the Wi-Fi My signal strength is excellent. What I have tried so far: Played around with firewall settings and any other program that could be restricting the internet. Tried a new wireless card Tried a USB dongle Updated all drivers. I recently reinstalled windows and had the same problem with no third-party software on the machine. I am yet to try an Ethernet cable as my router is 20 meters away from my PC, however I can move my PC downstairs temporarily if need be. I had the same setup in my previous property, just with a different router, and all was well. Any point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated! Many Thanks, Numpty

Hi all, I have had my PC for some time now and have always had a problem with my internet speed. On my Wifi on my phone for example, in the same spot as my PC, I receive 40+MBPS. On my PC however it rarely goes above 8, let alone 10. I have changed my wireless adaptor. I have installed a fresh windows 8 copy (my PC crashed not long ago) Before this I scrolled through programs that could be using (or limiting) my internet speed. I have bought a Wifi extension cable, so I can run the antenna outside of my room (in case my under-desk set-up was giving my grief) Drivers up to date. I have had no luck with all! Any point in the right direction would be amazing! Even if i have tried before I'm more than willing to try again. Many thanks!
