So my network adapter is constantly disconnecting on me recently. Not sure if this is a Windows 10 problem. I have to either physically reconnect the wifi adapter or enable/disable it through device manager. It's kind of annoying since it happens 1-3 times per hour.
Steps I've tried:
Uninstalling/ Updating networks drivers
Restarting the computer
Disabling the power management and selective suspend under device manager
Disabling selective suspend under power options
Disabling ipv6
Disabling 802.11n support
Disabling a bunch of other network adapters and settings
Assigning static IP
Changing pc name
Steps I have not tried yet (need to wait):
Testing network adapter on another pc
Testing with another network adapter
Every time it disconnects, there's a warning logged in event viewer:
The network interface "Linksys WUSB600N Wireless-N USB Network Adapter with Dual-Band ver. 2 #3" has begun resetting. There will be a momentary disruption in network connectivity while the hardware resets.
Reason: The network driver detected that its hardware has stopped responding to commands.
This network interface has reset 1 time(s) since it was last initialized.
It happened 40+ times today, and waiting or using the built in troubleshooter does not help. It seems like my network adapter shuts down immediately after this warning, since it goes cold and no more blinking lights. I know for sure it's not my modem or router since I can still use the wifi on my phone with full signal.
What do you think? I'm stumped on this one since Google hasn't given me any real results. I'm probably just going to buy a new network adapter if nothing works
Thanks for reading
