Constantly slow and disconnecting from internet (no internet access)
Ok this has been happening for a few weeks now with the connection either being slow or just displaying a yellow triangle saying limited access and no internet access. Getting pretty desperate and running out of ideas now so need to ask here.
Basically we switched ISPs after about a month of no internet, our old modem was from 2005ish and it was just a standard modem where you plug in a wireless router into it and it worked fine. Now we have a wireless modem hub which we were using when I noticed my laptop started having these issues. The other laptop, phones, tablets and PS3 connect fine and maintain connection. So I decided to try connecting up our router and using that (Cisco Linksys E2000, which actually performs better anyway), however the problem persists.
I did a complete reinstall of Windows 7 32bit HP thinking it would solve the problem (I was planning on reinstalling anyway to speed it up) but it made no difference. Updated the drivers for the wifi card (Atheros AR9285) to the latest version. Nothing.
I've googled and tried a bunch of things including disabling ipv6, ROUTE DELETE 0.0.0.0 and resetting to 192.168.1.1, disabling DHCP in ipv4. Right now in Device manager I'm also seeing a "Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface" which I've just noticed on this startup. It has a yellow triangle on it and says cannot start (code 10) in properties.
So basically, every so often the connection will either be slow or just won't start at all, and on some boots of the system it'll just be stuck on "Identifying..." for like 30 seconds+ before becoming an "Unidentified Network" with the bench icon despite it being the same connection as the home connection I have.
Oddly enough, right now it's working fine with 5 full white bars in the bottom right and is fast, but more often than not itll be doing the above. I'll post a screencap of my ipconfig /all anyway as it is:
Also for the record, I don't have McAfee or bonjour installed, I saw these were common culprits with this problem too. Also tried disabling Avast and Windows Firewall and right now my router has security disabled and no MAC address filter. It's fine for other devices like I said.
