Does anyone has the intermittent internet access issue with this laptop?

I have trouble with it crashing the browser from time to time. I think it was a windows 8.1 issue thou

Haven't had that, but after 3 months Lenovo says my hard drive went out and has to be replaced. I lost everything on it and it has to be sent in for repairs. I am never buying a windows machine again. My MacBook has been going strong for 4 years.

I had issues only the first time i connected, but the i used the troubleshooting connection tool (right click on the wifi connection and it will come up). Not anymore after that.but you can try to reinstall the wifi driver from Lenovo's website. hope this helps.

Kept having trouble with mine dropping connection - Switched to an Asus . P.S. had two diff Netgear adapters & both did it.

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.

I have not had any issues with internet connection either. Not sure what the one reviewer was referring to. But the drivers should be loaded from the factory.

Sorry I have not had an issue but really have not used the router that much yet.

My computer does not go slow but it does lose connection with the internet alot. I have to reconnect it alot when I am on it.

I have not experienced this but I use 1.05. Check to see if your LAN speed itself is also fluctuating to isolate the problem.

Is your connection loss occurring after the laptop goes to sleep and then resumes? That seems to be happening with mine. I recently upgraded the driver of the card (Google "Intel Centrino Wireless-N 135 Driver Update" and download the most up-to-date driver from Intel's website) and it seemed to help the problem. I believe it still happens occasionally, but not every single time as before. Not sure what the cause might be.

Hey Paul. I recently bought this laptop for my aunt back in India. It certainly does have Wifi issues. Sometime i have to try around 5-6 times to get it connected . My aunt has also complained that it absolutely doesn't connect to the Wifi network in her office. But it seems to work well at their apartment, where they use it fairly close to the access point

My computer, the Aspire R7-571, does have the wifi issue. I wrote about it in my review. I still use a single band 2.4ghz router. When close to the router, I get about half speed. Instead, I use a wireless adapter in one of my USB ports and works great. I get full speeds that way.

try download the driver for the wifi. but it won't solve the problem 100%. also upgrade to windows 8.1

No, have had it since June, have not had that problem. Although, it was a gift for my husband and he doesn't use it that often. The main thing we have noticed is slow in loading up sites.

I have not had this problem at all. My tablet is always connected to the internet and does so sitomatically.

Mine did the same thing recently. Uninstall the drivers for several of the WiFi/Internet using the driver uninstall of jut remove them. Reboot the computer and the devices will be found again and will reinstall the drivers. Once that happens my computer was able to use the internet. Else on the ASUS website there are several recommended procedures. Good Luck

Huge problem caused by WRE54G. After the setup, my laptop can "see" the network but cannot get on internet: "Page cannot be found." The laptop is connected to the wireless network, signal is strong, can see other members of the network, but not internet!!! These people in India could not help, go figures...

Mine intermittently does the same. I have to switch it off and then back on, sometimes a couple of times. Eventually it reconnects, but it is very frustrating especially as HP has nothing about it on the website.
