Which version of Ubuntu? I know several people who had problems with versions earlier than the current Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on tablets and netbooks. I haven't had the problem since I upgraded to 14.04.

Yes I did. I had a lot of problems with Internet connections with this Asus laptop, even though my router was less than 2 feet away. In fact, I couldn't even get Ethernet connection with it. Then I realize that it's more of a software problem than a hardware one. I did a clean fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr. And I haven't had a problem with Internet or Ethernet connection ever since.

With light use over a couple of WiFi networks, I've has no trouble. My impression is that they got it right.

Yes , it does give problem sometimes. I have to restart or shut down for it to function normally!

It'Lloyd freeze than restart. Although, if it gets stuck then it's pretty easy to reboot. We use ours in Spain and the Internet speed is way slower than US and rarely do we experience problems.

I have experienced the same problem twice in two days. I also have a huge problem streaming Netlix video, in spite of my lightning fast internet connection.

I've had this computer for about 3 months and haven't had this problem (or any problem for that matter)... What have you downloaded recently? Maybe a program or something you downloaded caused this. Worst case scenario, used "system restore" to reset the computer back to a certain time when the problem didn't exist

It lost wifi on one occasion and hasn't since, a friend explained to me that if I restarted my router that could fix the problem. And since then I haven't had any issues. I've been using it at work and its been fine all day.

Mine sometimes have the same problem. I turn it off for like 30 seconds then back on. If that don't work I turn off the Wi-Fi setting then back on. Sometimes you might have to restart your router tho. Hope this helps

I haven't had a bit of a problem with my computer, The best one I have ever had. Send it to the Mfg and see if they can fix it.I'm sure Amazon can help you with that. Might be a bad bunch.

router loaded ok(CD) worked great for one day, then needed repeated restarts. Bought the "refurbished" maybe that's the trouble. Need to research the troubles with it. If there is a fix, should fix b4 shipping

I had a similar problem. A few days later my router went out completely. I replaced the router and it worked well.

when I got mine it worked fine except it couldn't open the internet. I soon sold it to a friend. I would suggest just returning it for a new one or asking for your money back.

We had an issue connecting and maintaining our network connections. I'm not sure what the specs were but I ended up contacting Dell and with a few members we eventually rectified the problem. Recommendation? I would contact Dell if you have not already.

Sometimes I need to reboot from the modem and reset the router, turn off and on the computer at the same time in order for the wireless oriented signal to match.

I have had mine for about 8 months and have not had any problems, check your router settings and also if it continues you should call the Asus help line.

Yes, there seem to be some problem with it. Sometimes, I have to switch off - switch on WiFI to reconnect.

I haven't updated/connected to my router in a while, so I'm not sure what version I am running and I would need to drag out my laptop to check it. If you had no problems with 1.88 I would try going back to it. If that doesn't work then contact support/RMA it.
