It sounds like you're experiencing issues with your network connection on Windows 7 Ultimate. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve this issue:

Troubleshooting Steps for Network Connection Issue on Windows 7 Ultimate:​

1. Update Network Drivers:
   • Ensure your network drivers are up to date. Outdated drivers can sometimes cause connectivity issues.
   • You can update the network drivers through the Device Manager.
   []Check Network Settings:
   • Verify that the network settings are correctly configured. Check if the settings are set to obtain an IP address automatically.
   []Troubleshoot Network Adapter:
   • Use Windows 7's built-in Network Adapter Troubleshooter to diagnose and resolve common network connection issues.
   • Go to Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center > Troubleshoot problems.
   []Power Cycle the Router:
   • Sometimes simply power cycling your router can solve network connection issues. Turn off the router, wait for a minute, and then turn it back on.
   []Check Cable Connections:
   • Ensure all cable connections between your computer and the router are secure.
   []Static IP Configuration:
   • If using a static IP, ensure the settings are correct.
   []Disable Power Management:
   • Sometimes network adapters can be set to conserve power, leading to connectivity issues. Disable power management for the network adapter:
     • Go to Device Manager > Network Adapters > Right-click on your network adapter > Properties > Power Management tab > Uncheck "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".
   []Run System File Checker (SFC):
   • Use the System File Checker tool to scan and repair corruptions in Windows system files that may be causing the issue.
     • Open Command Prompt as an administrator and run the command: sfc /scannow.
   []Perform a Clean Boot:
   • Boot into a clean environment to check if any third-party software is causing the issue.
     • Type "msconfig" in the Start menu search box, go to the Services tab, check "Hide all Microsoft services," and then click "Disable all." Restart the computer.
   []Update Windows:
   • Make sure your Windows 7 system is fully updated with the latest patches and updates.
   []Reset TCP/IP:
   • You can reset the TCP/IP stack in Windows by running a few commands in Command Prompt:
     • Open Command Prompt as an administrator and run:

        netsh int ip reset netsh winsock reset

       After trying these steps, check if your network connection stabilizes and if the issue persists. Let me know if you encounter any specific error messages or if these steps resolve the problem for you!
