My laptop keeps disconnecting from my home's wifi. It will load a page and as soon as I refresh or try to load another page it will show it's disconnected from the internet and I need to manually reconnect. This works for about 30 more seconds and then I need to do it again.
Couple of obvious potential problem sources:
1) My laptop - but it connects fine to any other wifi (at work, starbucks, using my phone as a hotspot),
2) my home's wifi - but all other devices (phone, xbox online, wireless netflix) all work fine with it.
So, WTF?
I did some googling and saw some answers to similar problems, which suggested I run a "netsh winsock reset" from a command prompt and restart the PC. Did that... and it worked! For a day or so. Now I have the same problem again, and resetting the winsock doesn't seem to do anything.
Any ideas on what I should look at? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling my wireless network adapter from device manager. Predictably it didn't help (since it works fine for every other network).
What could be causing ONLY my laptop to have an issue connecting to ONLY one particular wireless network?
