Windows 7: Internet connection drops every few minutes

Symptoms:
- After few minutes (1, 5 sometimes 30) of well functioning internet, sites stop loading.
- Wireless indicator icon in the tray shows as it's STILL CONNECTED and everything's fine.
- Can't even load 192.168.1.1 in the browser.

Workaround:
- Reset adapter solves for a few minutes.
- Connect to a different network and go back to the original one solves for a few minutes.

Details:
- Other computers are connected to the same router and don't experience this problem.
- Haven't checked this computer with other routers.
- Network adapter drivers are updated to last.



System:
- HP dv6 3310ej (specifications)
- Windows 7 x64
- Broadcom 4313 802.11b/g/n
- AVG 2012 antivirus
- 8GB RAM (added my own 4GB)
- TpLink router WR841N

I would check the version number of your router and try to update the firmware. TP-Link Firmware Download

When you dont have access could you post your IPconfig /all use option 2.

Indeed the firmware version wasn't up to date, I have updated it and I will check to see if the problem persists in the following days. If I haven't posted anything in a few days it means that the problem is gone thx

Good Luck I hope everything works out.

Yep, it worked!
While updating the firmware I noticed that the problematic computer was configured both for DHCP static IP allocation and for MAC binding. That might have been the cause as well.

thanks for the help,
Michael

Glad it all worked out for you. I know how annoy that problem can be.
