Wireless utility isn't working

I have a new Toshiba satellite L500 laptop with windows 7 64-bit home premium OS, I found an issue with the wireless utility where it works fine when i open the laptop, but after sometime (about an hour) it stop working, i tried to use windows troubleshooter, it help me fixing the problem sometimes (saying that the solution is to enable the wireless network connection adapter) but only for a short time (5 minutes).

The problem isn't from the router since my other devices are working fine.



Any help?

If the wireless utility isn't working right you should just uninstall it from add/remove programs and let Windows handle the connection.

I can't tell which one is the wireless connection software but that is an awful lot of bloat ware from what I can see. If there is a preinstalled anti virus software that should be the first one to go.

I would remove every last one of them unless you need one for a specific reason.

You should also go to Windows update if you haven't done so yet.
