Why does internet........? - skootch - 04-08-2014 07:55 PM
While I am using my laptop I keep getting a window notice saying that the connection has stopped working.
This message comes every couple of minutes and I have to wait till the connection starts again.
Why is this happening ?

There may be a problem with your router or wifi connection. If you are the only person in your house having the problem and only on your laptop, it may be a problem with the ethernet cable from your laptop or with the wifi anntena in the laptop.
Try a different machine to see if the problem persists. If it persists, then the problem is outside your control and you need to contact your ISP.

Unplug the power cable and "internet" cable connected to your router. Leave them unconnected.. (Make sure your router is off because some have batteries)
Wait about 6 minutes and plug the two back in. Connect to the internet
If that problem persists, troubleshoot with the company that made the router.

I concur what St N said, check your router or wifi connection.
