Re: Belkin N+ F5D8235-4 v2000 constantly dropping internet
I had similar problems with a different router, but it ended up being a wifi driver issues with the laptop. I updated the wifi driver, and did a manual cleanup of old networks from the Window registry, and created a new and all was good.
So far no problems here with F5D8235-4v2, a vista laptop with wireless stays connected as should, using router firmware 2.01.07.
Do your routers log indicate
Internet connection fail =>(with date and time)
at the time of loss?
If not, I would guess it is a problem with the wireless configuration in the router, or a driver and set up configuration problem on the laptop, as distance or interference issues should also knock out seeing your entire network.

I have also Belkin N+ F5D8235-4 router and the same problem - Desktop PC with ethernet connection = OK / laptop with WiFi connection = periodically dropping ... I will try to reinstall laptop WiFi card drivers, maybe it helps ...
What is the state of your problem at the moment?!? | |

| I've got a Belkin N+ F5D8235-4 v2000, that I've had for about a week, and I have a recurring problem that I can't seem to figure out.
Periodically, while I'm using it, for no reason that I can see, it will drop internet (it's my laptop using wi-fi, by the way). It's still connected to the network, and I can still move stuff to another computer, but the internet stops working. I have another computer that is connected by ethernet, and it does NOT have this problem and is still accessible at all times.
The only way to get internet back when this happens is to flip the wi-fi switch on my laptop off and then on again so that it reconnects to the router. Then internet is miraculously back.
It's NOT the laptop as far as I can tell. I use several other wifi spots in town and at friends fairly regularly, and it doesn't do this. Just with my router.
Any ideas? Or is there something I can look at when it goes down that would tell me?
It's extremely frustrating, especially if I'm trying to play a game. I'm ready to just take it back. | |
