In desperate need of some help!
Hi There! I am in desperate need of some help. Whatever this is it is driving me insane and I have been googling about it for months so I apologize if I have made the same topic as somebody else.
I am not a computer master so have come here for some guidance so I have to also apologize in advance if I don't explain anything in correct terms!
I have a DELL INSPIRON 15R and it is obviously running windows 7. I am at the point where I would like to throw the laptop out the window even though the laptop is not the problem, something is going on with the wireless connection somewhere i think.
I have tried NUMEROUS full factory restores and basic restore to restore points to fix this but no luck I have also tried command prompts with no luck.
Okay so the problem; When I go to the internet (firefox) or IE when im desperate but still with no luck, the wireless icon on the bottom right hand side comes up with a little yellow yield sign on it. The connection pretty much dies out of no where! It's like the connection times out or something. Then i have to keep refreshing it until it says "internet access" with the picture of the house, or i just disconnect and reconnect until it works. But the strange thing is sometimes it will just work? Like before it was having a spazz attack but as I have typed this whole thing out it has been fine! It does that sometimes. weird.
ANY HELP GREATLY APPRECIATED! My iPhone works FINE on the wireless by the way, as does my dads. My ps3 also works fine on the wireless.
I am using avast antivirus. I am at my wits end
