If it is just a periodic overheating issue, this may solve your problems.<br /><br />Otherwise, it may be time to replace your router altogether.<br /><br />I had thought your router settings might be causing you the trouble, but since your inactivity problems are both fairly often and yet only last for a short period of time, I tend to think the router is just going bad or overheating.<br /><br />Have you tried to connect directly to the router during these problem periods?Dasii010https://www.blogger.com/profile/06633962398554055761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4208221540333166462.post-2524776009360179622011-09-12T18:12:31.446-04:002011-09-12T18:12:31.446-04:00Windows 7.

I had already decided to reformat and reinstall windows so I did that and reinstalled most of my normal software but I still had the issue. It comes and goes, usually lasting about 20minutes i would guess. For email, i just use gmail... no outlook or thunderbird.<br />I have bypassed the router and it would work when i plugged in directly to the modem.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4208221540333166462.post-41127966575587727852011-09-12T01:52:57.965-04:002011-09-12T01:52:57.965-04:00I assume you meant that you are running Windows 7,...I assume you meant that you are running Windows 7, and that you have already ran a malware/antivirus program to no avail.<br /><br />I'm not as familiar with Win 7 as XP, but I might be able to help you.<br /><br />A few questions though, when you lose the ability to load new pages, for how long do these periods typically last? A few minutes or a few hours?<br /><br />You mentioned messenger and chat still working during these periods of inactivity. Does your email still work, or do you only use a free online account provider (gmail, hotmail, etc.)? MS Outlook might still be able to send and receive email during these periods, for example.<br /><br />Also, have you tried to connect directly to the internet with an Ethernet cable, bypassing your wireless router, and if so, did the periods of inactivity continue to happen or not.<br /><br />I suspect the problem lies in your wireless network, or that there is a port issue, especially since you can still use messenger or chat.<br /><br />Anyway, I have fixed a fair number of networking issues at my last few jobs, but mostly with Vista and XP systems. But I might still be able to help or at least narrow down what is causing your problem.Dasii010https://www.blogger.com/profile/06633962398554055761noreply@blogger.com
