My laptop is an msi gs70 stealth and for about 6 months the wireless adapter was working fine; I had high speed, reliable internet connectivity.
However within the last 3 weeks or so my wireless adapter randomly stops detecting networks. What happens is the 5 or 6 other nearby networks my computer usually picks up disappear, leaving only the one i am currently connected to. A small yellow exclamation point appears over the network with the text, "this connection is limited".
I can be gaming or doing homework online one minute and the next, have no internet. Rebooting seems to consistently fix this problem, but only temporarily. I again lose connection within anywhere from 1 minute to 3 hours. Also moving my computer to another room in the house or connecting to a different network causes this problem to occur instantly.
Can anyone tell me why this is happening and give me advice on how to fix this problem?
