    Wired Connection drops randomly with NETGEAR WNDR4000 Router

    With my NETGEAR WNDR4000 Router I have connected two computers with Ethernet cable and HP laptop via WIFI. In one computer I have widows 7 operating system and another have windows vista operating system. With my windows 7 computer internet disconnects randomly. I have tried to solve this problem by reinstalling the drivers with no luck. Please help me to solve this problem.

    It can be Ethernet cable causing this problem. you should connect different Ethernet cable and then see whether connection remain constant or not? Many times due to faulty Ethernet cable wire this type of problem can take place.

    I will suggest you to in your windows 7 computer right click on my computer and then select properties. After that you have to select device manager. In device manger you have to expand network adaptor and then right click on your network adaptor. After that you have to click on Power management tab. Now you have to uncheck power option from there and after doing that you have to click on OK. Now see whether you are getting same problem or not?

    According to me after disabling power option your problem will get solved.

    Yes this problem can occur because of the power option and that is why you have to uncheck power option from the device manger and then problem will get solved. if that idea does not help you then you have to also set “maximum performance” in power plan setting. By doing this your problem will get solved.
