Network disconnects when computer sleeps & wont reconnect
Hello. My computer's internet disconnects when I put it to sleep, as if I hit the disconnect button. When I restart it, I have to manually reconnect to my network, and it takes quite a long time. It says "this is taking longer than usual." Before this happened, I had an issue where the internet would disconnect randomly every 20 or so minutes due to a gateway issue. I ran the troubleshooter and it fixed it every time, but it got frustrating. I finally installed some drivers, and the gateway issue was fixed, but this issue presented itself. Thanks in advance.
1. This is a wireless connection issue.
2. AT&T is my ISP.
3. I think I'm using DSL, it's through the phone box.
4. My router is a Netgear router.
5. I use Malwarebytes.
6. Here is my ipconfig.
