Default Problem with internet connectivity on HP laptop running on Vista


Hello,

I am facing a strange problem with my HP Dv6705 laptop running on Vista
Professional.
I have a Wi-fi router configured for internet access.
Now, the internet connectivity is intermittent i.e. I am connected to
the internet for about 5 seconds before it gets disconnected. I get the
connectivity again after a few seconds before it gets disconnected.

Now, I started using the uTorrent application after which I got
prolonged connectivity. From the past few days, whenever I need
uninterrupted internet I need to turn on the uTorrent application.
It is quite strange that I am the only one who needs to do this while
the others in my house (who have similar laptops) do not face any
problem.

Is there any way to detect what exactly is happening and how I can
resolve this uTorrent workaround?

Thanks in advance.
- Treadstone

Hi
Take a look of of is running the Wireless and make sure that only one
Utility is running (either the Vendor utility, or Window WLAN Auto Config).
In addition, many Laptops come with "Loads of Junk" in the StratUp that is
running unneeded in the background (including applications that affect the
Network connection) take a look at the StartUp and remove things that you do
not need.
Get these two free Utilities (StartUp & Process Explorer).
Check what your computer is doing upfront (StartUp),

Then get this one and check what it is doing behind you back.

P.S. these utility are free and do not need even to get installed, just run
the Exe files it does not take more then few seconds.

Treadstone,

Which is the state of connection network to the place you uses your
laptop? Is the signal good? Which is the transmission speed of the
laptop when that arrives?

Thanks for your responses.

@Jack: I tried using the StartUp and Process Explorer utilities. Tried
to run with only the basic processes running in the background. But
couldn't resolve the problem.

@PhilPerrier: The signal strength is excellent throughout. There seems
to be no problem with that. The laptop transmits at about 12,00,000
Bytes and 30,00,000 Bytes.

I tried uninstalling the Atheros AR5007 802.11b/g WiFi Adapater driver
and reinstalling it. That din't help either.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,
Treadstone

Treadstone,

Your Atheros card transmit from 6 to 54 Mbs. If the signal is bad, the
transmission will be done at speeds' bellow 30 Mbps. Probably, that the
speed of 12 Mbps is caused by the weakness of the signal. You should
try to connect your laptop close to your router in order to check if you
do not lose the connection due to quality of the signal. If it is the
case, moves your router in an elevated place in order to pass over the
most metallic’s objects as possible.
