Hellos!
I've often used your forums, and you've always solved my problems so now I'll ask again,
this time on behalf of a friend who's having some troubles with his wireless connection.
He's running Windows 7 Ultimate and is having terrible problems with his connection which keeps jumping, cutting him off, just to let him back on for a few minutes. I've been on the same network with my pc, LAN party, also using the wireless net, without all this trouble. I'm using a hella old Belkin receiver, and he was using a couple years old wireless card with a receiver, until yesterday when he decided to buy a brand new one with THREE antennas, thinking that was the problem. It's not. It's still cutting hi off, it would've pretty much been impossible writing here if it wasn't for modern techonology - portable hotspots!
Thinking it might be a virus we scanned with Avast! free, which came up with multiple high risk threats, all being winsxs AMD (I assume) false threats as MBAM hasn't detected anything, and we're going for a run with HijackThis and HitmanPro afterwards.
The PC isn't acting strange otherwise, which makes me think we might be facing a completely different problem here. I am not at all into networking and fixing this kind of stuff, so I need a new approach. What could this possibly be? I've googled everything from here to Valhalla, and I just can't seem to find a solution.
I'll be attaching MBAM, HijackThis and HMP logs as soon as we're done.
(Sorry if this is the wrong section, but it seemed appropriate enough)
Thanks in advance. N&E
