Windows 7 Atheros ar5009 loses connection...

[Trouble]

Looks like mDNSresponder.exe again.
Open services console by typing services.msc into the search box and hit enter
look for this string
##Id_String1.6844F930_1628_4223_B5CC_5BB94B879762##
double click it
choose stop and change the startup type to disable.

lol how did you open that, with WinZip?

I tried my default WinRar and also Windows Explorer itself and both said it couldn't be opened.

Anyhow, good find. If that doesn't fix it which it very well might, then check on all the other driver dates and update them as well, like for video, input device, audio, lan network etc...

7zip.
I really like it when you do all the hard work and I get to jump in near the end with a probable solution, NICE.
I'll bet that's it, it's starting automatically as a service and was of course in the running tasks. Great work as usual TG, I just saw that you were pretty busy with the BSODs and thought I'd jump in on this one.

Heck yeah, no doubt, it's for sure appreciated. Same to you and thanks!

Testing this, should I restart too or should it work at instant ?
Gonna trying pinging hope I won't get timeouts !

Reboot after.

clear dns cache
command prompt
ipconfig /flushdns
ping this

Okay, seems it reduced a bit the timeouts, now from 100 pings I get only less than 5% loss. And delays around 100ms which is okay. And normal time delays. I am happy at least its reduced
Hope this will work out now when playing games. I will give it a try.

Open the services console again
type services.msc into search box and hit enter
scroll as needed to find IP Helper
double click and choose stop and set the startup type to manual.
Also consider disabling (unchecking) IPv6 in the properties of your adapter. If you're not using homegroups or direct access or tunneling to a Windows 2008 r2 server, chances are you're not using it.

Giving it a try !

**EDIT: still getting few timeouts, not as first time but still out of 100 5~6 timeouts... and around 20 huge delays.**

Did a long time pinging...

Ping statistics for 62.119.189.4:
Packets: Sent = 3345, Received = 3268, Lost = 77 (2% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 7ms, Maximum = 858ms, Average = 23ms

Seems kinda okay, but still weird !

ping the outside edge of your router. Go to whatismyipaddress.com and ping the ip address that it returns as yours. What are the results?
