I have had my Lenovo PC since January of 2014 and I have never encountered any problems until today.
I use the built-in "Realtek RTL8188E Wireless LAN 802.11n PCI-E NIC" wireless attachment
with my other "D-Link DWA-140 RangeBooster N USB Adapter(rev.B2)" portable WiFi usb adapter.
I use them together at times when one tends to fail (usually when I hard-reset). I've been doing this method for about 5 months and it never affected my PC until today when I was getting some serious speed issues when I connected to ANY website, multiplayer game, and programs.
So this is what has happened so far with my internet:
January, I was using the NETGEAR RangeMax WPN824N Wireless router and than 4 months later My ISP provider sends a Arris Modem (Model# TG862G/CT) that connects to my Cable, Broadband and Telephone use. I plugged in my old wifi router and it worked correctly for about 2 months no problems, but my new modem broadcasts its own wireless signal and I choose not to connect to it.
I still connect to my NETGEAR router but not to my ARRIS modem's wireless connection. I have checked the cables and made sure every is connected accordingly and correctly, but every now and then BOTH wireless connections from my computer to my WiFi router, will timeout and re-connect, which is very annoying.
In my properties I have disabled Ethernet (I don't use it, since I'm a wifi guy, but maybe this is the issue?) and by default both roaming options were set to disabled.
Every now and then I get the error: "Your computer appears to be correctly configured, but the device or resource (DNS server) is not responding" but when i use any other device to connect, it is working just fine.
Is there anybody who can help? I know this is a PC problem and I don't really want to refresh.
[Additional and Clear Details: Router is secured with a password, it is not public. Only my PC is having issues connecting. It is entirely based on networking issues and not any other hardware on my PC. I am not an expert on networking.]
