[SOLVED] "Internet not found" suddenly while still using the internet

[syer1001]

I have this strange internet problem where occasionally, while using the internet, the internet itself will be disconnected and it will claim "Internet not found" with red x mark until I either sleep and wake it up or restart it.

I saw that the lan driver is claiming to still be up to date, but it keeps on doing that, sometimes in the duration of few minutes after restarting the computer.

I am using windows 8.1 and the driver is realtek rtl8723be wirelass lan 002.11n pci-e (if i'm not mistaken). my laptop brand is lenovo.

also, i am a beginner so you may need to explain to me how to actually fix this computer. I really don't have money to buy a new one, or a functional external hard disk inside to transfer all my stuff, so please help me with this one.

My first thought is that the laptop's wireless adapter is failing. Next time it happens, hover your mouse over the internet icon on the task bar. See if it shows network access. If not, then may well be the wireless adapter.
