Wireless Internet Stops working in Build 7048

[Reverence]

For some reason my wireless internet connection goes to "Limited Activity" after just a few minutes of use on Build 7048. Once I've restarted it will work again.....for a few minutes, that is......then it goes back to "Limited Activity". I am currently using a Wireless Dell Wireless 1505 Draft 802.11n WLAN Mini-Card Network Adapter.
I have tried to roll back driver the wireless adapter driver but I am getting same error.
I've since reverted back to build 7022 with works fine with my adapter. Is anyone else having this problem? If so....has anyone found a remedy?

I have installed both on dual boot.

i have the same problem with dell wireless 1395 WLAN mini-card, tied to disable ipv6 protocol, sometimes work fine, sometimes only 5 min i thing this is 7048 build bug, waiting for fix and working with cable connected to my pc.

memento is that problem only happens to win 7 x86 or x64 as well?

i have 4gb ram so i prefer 64bit don't know how it works with 32bit

hmm
is this a 32 or 64 7022?
also have you tried both the WU the base 7 and the Vista drivers?
if you have then there might be way to workaround the issue so that every few minutes it disable and re-enables the adapter...
this last resort should be avoided since it might use up to many unnecessary cpu cycles and might take a 1 min or 2 (at the most) to get a functional connection (which might cut into those those precious minutes that you might have...)
also this will interupt all software that is accessing the net
my advise: if you have tried all sort of drivers and made sure you disabled every sleep setting (or power setting that has to do with the Wireless adapter) then just use something that works....

we are talking about 7048 64bit build, with older builds wifi works fine. I notice whan internet stops, wifi stop sending packets , but can receive. I have tried all drivers, all power management configures, firewalls disabling enabling, helps only local area connection

memento I am running win 7 7048 x86 on that pc.

But on my laptop I got x64 and all works fine. But here I got a different wireless adapter.

yes, my friends working this build with asus, hp laptops and don't have any problems with wifi. So it is dell problem or wrong drivers ?

I will try install the drivers from dell support website and try it.

I let you know the results

 

[darkassain]

mememto there is a PM (power management) tab...
check to see if "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" is checked
if it is uncheck it...
also be sure to check any of the advance tab for any options on power and see if that helps...
also if there are options in the power settings (in the control panel) check if any Wireless options related to sleep or changing performance of this adapter...

I am having the same problem though this has just started happening over the last few days. Previously it was fine.

I lose connection to my wireless router. I can see it but Win7 won't connect to it. A restart solves the problem temporarily.

I have noticed that someone in my neighbourhood has got themselves a wireless because there is another connection showing up in my N&SC. I have assigned a static IP for my PC as this helped with wireless drops in Vista. Running defender and malware checks to make sure nothing has found it's way onto my machine.

edit - I am using a Linksys WRT54GC

Im having this problem aswell on a Dell Insprion 1520 laptop with wireless adaptor "Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-Card" ive tried to download latest vista drivers from dell's website and still has the same problem after about 5 minutes and I have to restart Laptop to get the wireless working again.

This is Windows 7 7048 x86

Thanks,
Ashley

i have been googling for this issue and find forum where people discus about it Wireless Internet Stops working in Build 7048 - Neowin Forums

^^ This guy is running a Linksys G network adapter which is what I am running. I have not installed a driver for this as Vista/Seven recognise this as a Broadcom adapter and installs it's own driver.

Also - are any of you guys running a P2P client. I have a feeling that my Bitorrent may be related to this, for me anyway.
