Solved Internet keeps crashing while gaming

[AlexP]

Ok,so,this happens while I'm playing online games,especialley counter strike 1.6.
While it's crashed,I can't load internet pages and re-enter the cs server,bun I CAN talk on yahoo messenger and my utorrent keeps downloading/uploading.
It crashes fairley often,for a little period of time(approx 30 secons to 1 min).
I am connected to a belkin router,through a wireless connection.
The lights are still on,even if the internet is down(I mean,semi-down,coz the Y!M and utorrent are still working ).
I tried disconnecting the router and re-connecting it,but with no success.
Closing the firewall is futile...
I'm open to suggestions.
I WILL NOT connect directley to the modem!
P.S. I think that I'll reinstall the router.

Hi AlexP,

Do you have the proper port forwarding of the Counter Strike game in your Belkin router?
Belkin : Support Configuring port forwarding

I don't know the exact Model of your Belkin, this link might also help.
http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Belkin/F5D9630-4/Counter_Strike.htm

Can you try a wired connection to the router? Are you able to replicate the issue?

Might be worth it to download the Belkin's router's firmware and you will need a wired connection to manually install the firmware, an FYI. Don't attempt to install it thru a wireless connection.

I'm not installing it through the wireless connection,I did it throug the computer that's connected to it.
I can not see if the problem persists with the cable plugged in directly and I don't rly think it's the router's problem.
The game went perfectly normal on my other laptop,that used wireless too,and it was windows 7 ultimate...
The only thing is that it was 32 bit...
I know it's a G type...
And,I'm not hosting a server,so I don't need to portforward...Isn't that right?>.>

I am having the same problem. Tried Both using MSI RG60SE wireless and Speed-touch modem. Firmwares updated,protocol v6 unchecked everything works fine while chatting browsing etc. When i log on BF3 after 10mins or so it disconnects. Always same time. The interesting part is even on my ps3 i play fifa and it always disconnects me from it after i finish of playing first match (ps3 is wireless connection with MSI router). Always same timing. Everything disconnects and it re-connects automatically.

I called providers everything fine from their side. No idea .. any help guys please? Thank you

AlexP - Your P2P Programs might be intervening. If your other laptop is not having an issue, you may try using a different Wi-Fi adapter if you think that the router is not at fault.

Ryan87 - I think it will be better if you create your own Thread. I'll find it or someone should be assisting you.

 

[AlexP]

Ummm,I'm not using any wi-fi adapter....It's just the incorpored one...
And,what's a P2P program?XD

 

[2xg]

I meant to replace or buy a new Wireless Network Adapter. If you can borrow one from a friend and test it out, you may do so or just stop by at the local Electronic Store. Return it if it didn't help at all.

Re - P2P? Bittorrent, utorrent, etc...

 

[AlexP]

I tried out another adapter,and no use.
Closed the utorrent,no use...

Have you done this?

No issue if it's a wired connection to the router or modem?

I can not see if the problem persists with the cable plugged in directly

Install and run Xirrus Wi-Fi Inspector from your wireless computer.
Double click the Xirrus Icon on your desktop, Tap the Printscreen key on your keyboard, open up Paint then choose Edit from the Menu and select Paste, then SAVE it. Upload and attached it here,

Something else I just found!
It seems that my upload has more serious problems.
While I was talking to a friend on Y!M,he couldn't hear me,but I heard him perfectly(during a net shot)

Try changing your Wireless Channel to either 1, 6 or 11.

Also, this is the 3rd time, please do not overlook on upgrading your router's firmware. Here's an instruction on how to do that. Belkin : Support : How do I update the firmware on my router?

 

[AlexP]

*sigh*
Why should I upgrade the firmware,since the other laptop is speeding like a rocket?
P.S. Tried changing the channels before posting,no result.

Have you tried Port forwarding - Post #3?

You may also bypass it by enabling DMZ in your router, it's risky though, just make sure that your computer has Security Software installed.

 

[AlexP]

DMZ?

 

[2xg]

What is a DMZ? Security | DSLReports.com, ISP Information

Depending on your Belkin Model, on some.... you may enable DMZ feature specific for one computer in your network. Please check out page 24/133 of this Belkin Manual regarding that. The Manual will also give instruction on how to enable DMZ.

[AlexP]

K,I'll see how the DMZ thing works.
I'll report later.
EDIT:no luck.
Still the same old fail.

[AlexP]

I can't download it...
Whenever I hit the download button,it refreshes the page.
Ik that I seem realy dumb,lol,but this is just too annying...

 

[2xg]

Just for you, I downloaded the file. Also, you will need to uncompress the folder, then locate the .sys file, this is the Driver.

Here's complete guide on how to manually install the network driver adapter.
