Windows 7 keeps disconnecting my wireless almost every 15-180 minutes.

I am not really sure what the problem could be I am using a Linksys WRT54G Wireless router and I am using a Linksys Wireless Adapter which I connect through USB.

I have the same router and I don't have any problems. Try updating the router's firmware and updated the wireless adapter driver.

Do you have this problem on any other computers in your house? If you do then you need to contact your ISP, if you don't then it's a problem with your wireless adapter, not your router.

This was the problem I was getting on my 54G before it finally died. Two things to try:
- Upgrading the firmware (even if it's the latest version, upgrade to latest version).
- Plug through LAN.

Some 54g routers will just die, but that doesn't mean that the problem could be originating with other wireless problems.

I have 2 other computers in my house, Neither of them gets disconnected.
I tried switching the Wireless Adapter not to long ago and it did nothing.


I am almost 100% certain that it is Windows 7 causing this problem because it started to occur the day I installed the beta.

Do you have a cap card or your connections bridged? My pinnacle DVD recorder seems to screw up my computer if I boot up my computer with it connected. I have the same setup except I have XP installed but this could be the problem. I would also try unplugging everything in your usb ports except obviously your mouse, keyboard and adapter and restart it to see if that works.
