I recently fixed some nagging internet issues by repairing my TP Link WDN4800 drivers. However, when i woke up this morning, I had the same issues as i did before the repair. I once again repaired my drivers and my internet was working just fine.

I assume i should replace my network card, but does this possibly mean there's a deeper issue with my PC?

What were the "nagging issues"? Any error codes or messages?

What make and model router do you have?

Any power saver or hibernation settings?

Reinstalling the drivers may have seemed to work but that was only a coincidence.....

I would think it is too soon to decide on a replacement adapter card or maybe a deeper issue with your PC.

Check that your card is correctly and fully seated. Check the antennas as well. Re-orient them and test.

Verify that you did install the correct wireless card driver for your system and doublecheck the reconfigurations you made. Be sure to "save" or otherwise "apply" the applicable settings.

Check "ipconfig /all" when all is working well and again when internet is not working. Look for any...
