As the title states, my WiFi modem has been throwing me off the WiFi every few minutes, sometimes it'll stay up for about an hour or so. I'm not sure what the trouble is exactly, but the modem configuration via the default gateway doesn't offer so many options. It's been doing this for over a week now.

Information about the modem is listed below. If I need to provide more, please let me know.
Model: WIXFBR-117
Provider:CLEAR Wireless
Current Device Temp.:40 °C

Laptop Information:
Dell Inspiron 5423
Windows 8
Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-3217U CPU @ 1.80GHz 1.80GHz
6.00 GB (5.87 GB usable) RAM
64-bit OPerating System, x64-based processor
Intel(R) Centrino(R) Wireless-N 2230


It should also be noted that whenever someone is connected via ethernet, their connection is fine. It's just the WiFi.

It is likely wifi interference from one of your neighbors. If you go into the wifi setting you can try different channels and see if it help. You want to try 1,6 or 11

You might as well start shopping for another service. Clear/sprint WiMAX will be shut down on 11/6/2015 I suspect you will have great difficulty getting a data plan that is unlimited like clear is.
