My grandfather recently upgraded our internet service from standard Verizon FIOs to Verizon FIOs Quantum. Do to us getting the upgrade, we also received a new router, we hooked everything up fine and I was able to connect just fine, with increased speed of course. However I notice that I was frequently loosing connection to the internet on my Laptop.
Now before we did the upgrade I would have connection drops from the Network 2-3 times a day, and the connection would be back within 30 seconds on all of my devices. However now that we upgraded I do not loose connection from the network, just the internet, and only on my laptop.
Before it would be the 4 signal bars and a red X and after 30 seconds it would be clear white bars again. Now it is a yellow ! sign for 5-10 minutes.
I can fix it quickly (by fix I mean get my connection back) by right clicking the bars and trouble shooting, and it will fix the problem by saying "Default Gateway not Available" FIXED! with a green check point, and boom! I got my connection. but then anywhere from 2-10 minutes the entire process starts again.
I do not have this problem on any other devices, except for my laptop I upgraded all of my drivers for my network adapters and still nothing, I also ran 3 different virus scans and they all came up clean.
