Problems with my WIFI?

I was recently browsing the internet on my laptop and then it just dropped the connection on both Ethernet and WIFI which has completely stopped working until i restart my computer and it works for about 10-15 minutes then disconnects once again.

Also my Ethernet cable connection drops occasionally for some reason saying "The default gateway is not available". I dont know if this is a driver related issue?

WIFI Driver Atheros AR9285

Ethernet Driver Realtek 7.17.304.2010

Much appreciated

Thanks.

Hi James,

Is not stated what OS you are using, however, maybe you check the Microsoft/Windows forums.

Here is a thread that kind of looks like a possible answer to your problem

Good luck!
