Desktop disconnect and unable to search for any network.

[Andy Cheng]

Hi. My desktop auto connect to the wireless network every time when it's on. Recently, after connected with the Internet for about 20 min, it will disconnect and unable to search for any network. I need to wait for about 20 min before restarting it(then it will auto connect after the desktop start up). If I were to restart it immediately, the desktop will still be unable to search for the network. Anyone has any idea what's wrong?

Do you have another device with wireless capabilities that you could test? A smartphone an e reader or another laptop. If it works fine on another device it's most likely the network card on your computer

Tried connecting with a smart phone and the connection work just fine. Most probably just the desktop.

You can try replacing the network card on the desktop. Is it absolutely out of the question to use a wired connection ?

Yeah. Sort of impossible to try using wired connection. I tried using an old desktop receiver(a black color stick for the network card) but the same thing happened.
