    Wireless problem Intel 4695 64-bit


    build 7600 windows ultimate
    I know i'm not the first experiencing trouble with this wireless card, but I feel like I have read through all the threads with similar problems. That's why i'm starting a new thread, but if anyone know of any existing threads that can solve my problem that would be great.
    The problem I have with my wireless is that it suddenly stops working. It usually works after I restart, or after hibernation, sometimes the wireless stops working after i start the web browser, and other times it can work for a few hours. Often it would stop working when streaming or when connecting to a poker client.
    This might be a driver related issue, but I have tried several drivers and I even found one that windows notified me to be correctly installed. I know there's nothing wrong with the router, because we have several laptops working perfectly with the router.
    I did take a few screenshots, two of the ipconfig command with and without the wireless on.

    Earlier today I discovered that the wireless worked when the power wasn't plugged in. So if i run on battery the wireless seems to work fine. This is a recent discovery that might not be accurate.
    Hope you guys can help me!

    Welcome!

    Try uninstalling the drivers from Device Manager, and rebooting. Let Windows automatically install the drivers.

    Hi.
    I've got the same card and just use the default Windows one which has never given me any issues. It might also be an idea to update the two problem devices in your device manager.

    I got all the drivers fixed, it only took me a couple of hours It was the web camera driver and the infrared device. Unfortunately the problem with the wireless did not go away. The wireless seems to be working fine on battery power, but every time i charge the battery, the wireless stops working. It's so weird

    How long has this been going on?

    You may want to try a system files check, and/or repair install.

    Open an elevated command prompt and enter sfc /scannow.

    I've had this problem since the beginning, except the wireless would work for maybe two days at a time. I actually had problem with the original OS vista, but i only had it for one day before it crashed so it's hard to say
    Beginning system scan. This process will take some time.

    Beginning verification phase of system scan.
    Verification 100% complete.

    Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violation

    Thanks for the response so far, I welcome all suggestions

    That almost suggests a hardware problem. You may want to consider taking the machine in for a replacement network card, or replace it yourself if you can.
