I have this stupid problem where by sometimes I can't connect to the internet through my wifi network.

The problem is sometimes for some reason my laptop connects to SKY 2 instead of just SKY and then I have no internet connectivity. There is no way to fix it, just by luck it will start working again after a million reboots etc etc...

How do I fix this?
 
Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I do that and it just lists SKY 2 instead of just SKY with no internet connectivity. I can't even get to the router config pages when its connected to this network.
 
It's just downstairs mate. I'm not really sure most of the time it works fine but it just started happening on my laptop. It happend a few months ago as well.
 
Hello,

Nope laptop is newer and in I know they are compatible I think it's more to do with Windows 7 mucking something up but I just cant find the fault...
 
So this occurred again recently and I think I found the cause...I checked when it connected to the weird "2" network the ipconfig status..and it the gateway was listed as a weird IP, so I went to that IP and it was my NAS...

I went into my NAS settings and turned DHCP server off...does that sound like the problem?

It fixed my connection...
