Default gateway not available - have new router and new wifi adapter
My internet keeps dropping out and when troubleshoot says 'default gateway not available' and fixes it. it drops out anywhere from every 1 minute to a few hours. must disable wifi adapter and then enable and all is fine.
I was told to set a static ip which i did and had no effect.
I thought this may be a router problem as it was very old but I have just bought a new router (d-link dsl 2544n) which seemed to work fine but then the ssid keeps disappearing and the internet connection is gone. Different issue but same result.
I then thought it may be the laptop wifi card but i got a new usb wifi adapter (netgear wg111v3) and disabled internal laptop wifi card which again appeared to work for a few days without any problem but now it is back.
However when i now use my laptop wifi card the ssid from the new router keeps disappearing and i lose connection. I have an old phone in my room where the laptop is which i use as a remote for my computer media and it also has the ssid disappearing from the new router and I must disable and reanable the wifi and it comes back fine. All other wifi devices do not have a problem including another laptop in another room.
I am now thinking this may be some sort of interference or the like. Any help would be appreciated. I am not overly computer savvy so simple terms would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
