internet gets disconnected frequently

[dsathya1985]

Hello,
I have a Dell inspiron 1545(vista 32-bit) and the internet connectivity is really annoying..!!
It gets disconnected frequently showing limited connnectivity and then gets connected automatically in a few seconds.
i tried to unbind the ipv6..but still no good results..
i am not tech savvy...
pls help me

Have you checked if there is a new firmware for the router and a new driver
for the NIC?

Hi
It can happen because of.
Quirky hardware.
Marginal or "Dirty" wifi signal.
SSID of the Wireless source is Off.
Windows Wireless utility and the vendor's utility are both On.
Wireless card Power Saving is On and Not working well.
Since there is Not enoghu info in the OP to help pinpointing the problem.
Maybe this can Help, http://www.ezlan.net/wirelees.html

Thanks a lot for getting back..
first of all i have a wired network..and it was perfectly working fine,until a couple of weeks ago..

my internet adapter is a Marvell Yukon 88E8040 PCI-E Fast ethernet controller.
i have turned off the adapter power saving option too..
but the prob still persists..

i read one of the similar posts and ran an internet test from this link
Internet Connectivity Evaluation Tool

two tests failed giving me "not supported" as result..
1.UPnP Support Test
2.Multiple Simultaneous Connection States Test

eagerly awaiting ur reply..

Contact your ISP.
