Guys i need help with this, its cracking me up!

My internet keeps going off, if I disable my adapter and then enable it connects again fine.

Then every so often it drops again. All computers in the house and tablets, phones etc work fine and this does not happen.

I am using TP link AV500 powerline adapter!

I dont get the problem, I have tried everything besides a re-install of windows.
It never used to happen only in the past 2 months say. I have checked network logs etc and nothing! It just drops for no reason at all? :confused:

I am with plusnet.

My guess would be the powerline link dips out for a while if the wireless is unaffected.

I had similar problem with my powerline link; it would appear to disconnect for a while before picking up again.

If your using LAN1, the Atheros LAN, then plug into LAN2, the Intel LAN, after installing the latest drivers from Intel. Windows7 v19.3

Try with a long network cable instead of powerline.

If that works, install a cable in neatly.
