internet drop out

[Leesnep]

Any idea why my acer aspire repeatedly and sporadically disconnects my internet driver on it's own?

You mean drops it`s internet connection via the router your connected to.
Yep.

Most likely it cannot keep up with the wi-fi speed setting in your router.
You should check what the wi-fi adapter in your computer, or laptop is capable of in speed by finding it`s brand name and model number.
It can be found in windows under control manager then system security option.
And then clicking on system devices, Ethernet and wi-fi adapters in the hardware list.
Google it for its hardware spec`s and what wi-fi speeds it can use from 54g, 144g, up to N-150 or N-300.


Next log into your router and see what speed it is set to broadcast at for your wi-fi network.
If it is set higher than what the wi-fi adapter of the laptop can run at.
Simply select a value in the router for wi-fi broadcast that the laptop adapter can run at.

That will resolve any drop outs or frequent loss of connection to the router or it`s wi-fi internet connection.
Any other devices that use your wi-fi of the router will still work, but at a slower speed if they use a higher speed setting.
