I see this behaviour on my 2 laptops, here are the specs:
1. A W10 test environment on an old Dell Latitude D520, processor T5500 2CPU @ 1.666GHz, 2GB, 64 bits, Video: Intel 945 Express Chipset, Wireless: Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG (a very minimal system hence a nice laptop to test W10 with)
2. My W7 working environment on an Acer Travelmate 5730, Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T5870 @ 2.00GHz, 3GB, 32 bits, Video: Intel 4 series express Chipset, Wireless: Intel Wifi Link 5100 AGN
I am connecting to my own 802.11n 5GHz wireless network on channel 40+36. There are no other home wireless networks in my area using 5GHz.
I have 2 network connections Z: and Y: with my Synology NAS.
It happens not always, but until now I could not find out why or what.
Resetting my router: did not try that, I am not the only user: the modem/router is also used for my telephone, and my other home PC’s, Synology NAS, Samsung TV, Cannon printer are also connected but by wire, hence resetting the router was not my first choise.
I don't see peek networkloads on when booting my laptops
It never happens on a cable wired PC or laptop
All other things I tried to re-establishing the Wireless connection failed until now:
- Disconnecting and reconnecting the Wireless connection
- Disconnect, Forget network, rescan
- Logout, Login without reboot
I also noticed that the connection never gets dropped after the reboot, it is always successful, why, I don’t know, is there a difference between a cold boot and a reboot?
Kind regards and thanks for your reaction,
