Worst problem I've ever experienced with networking. Every 30-50 seconds the internet becomes limited access. It has been like this since mid December. No amount of power cycling the modem, router, or turning off every other device works. Only my Windows 7 computer (one I'm typing on) is experiencing this issue. Every other device in the house including phones, tablets and laptops have full unrestricted access.
Windows 7.
Belkin N150.
WNDR3700v4 router.
I've tried every solution I could find on the internet.
Things I've tried:
-Scanning for malware, removing any
-Removing all bluetooth programs and drivers
-Installing the Belkin driver
-Recreating the network connection (now called Wireless Network Connection 5 because I used 1,2,3,4)
-Using google's Preferred DNS server & Alternate DNS server
-Clicking 'update driver' on my connection and manually picking the Belkin driver
-Making sure the device's Power Management didn't say "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power"
-Making sure WLAN Autoconfig in Services.msc is set to auto.
-Doing the basic troubleshoot (just says There is a Problem, ask online for help)
-Removing NVIDIA's (geforce experience) network access service
-Windows firewall is 100% off.
-No antivirus programs on my computer.
Does anyone have any other ideas? My computer is proving completely useless without internet. I study online, and need this to work.
Hints: Every time it becomes "limited access", if I disconnect and reconnect to the wifi, it will INSTANTLY work for another 30 seconds, then go "limited access" again. WTF? It was working for 1.5 years before this. None of my neighbors are using the same channel as me and I live in a rural area, so there is little-to-no interference.
Feedback to people who respond:
-I have tried hard resets several times. Thank you for trying to help me.
-I have changed it to Auto-select DNS many times. Thank you for trying to help me.
Currently testing the idea to turn off Denial of Service / Flooding protection. The connection has not dropped yet. Will update.
