Wireless adapter stops working after 15 minutes.
Hi all, I have a problem and can't seem to find anything similar online after over an hour of searching.
My connection works perfectly for 15ish minutes, then I get disconnected. The wireless icon at the bottom left has a red x and says that there are no connections available.
In the network connections window my wireless adaptor also has a red X. If I try to disable it the computer becomes completely unresponsive and I have to manually reboot it, then it works fine for 15 more minutes etc.
I ran the check for new drivers but it said it was up to date.
Computer is a Samsung r530 laptop.
Wireless adapter is Atheros AR9285.
Connected to a wireless router, which seems to be working. (fine on other laptop and Ipad in the house)
The same setup has worked fine for the past year at least.
Thank a million in advance to anyone who can help me out.
