connection issue

I can connect but after a few minutes it drops. I assume the driver for wifi is installed since i get a connection.
I'd suggest trying to install a different (newer?) wifi driver from the wifi card manufacturer's site. Lookup the brand/model # of your wifi chip through Device Manager and look at the Driver Tab in the properties of it to see what the date/version is. Look on the manufacturer's site and see if a newer one is available.
I used device mgr and right clicked on the adapter and it said i have the most current driver there is. My isp rolled back a version and that didnt help either. Any other ideas?
Don't do the "Check for updates" through device manager - that just checks against the latest that MS has. Go to the wifi card manufacturer's site and download the driver if a newer one exists.
Well if it's an executable run it.
Otherwise you'll need to extract it to a folder, and then right click your wifi adapter in Device Manger -> Update driver... -> choose to "Choose from folder" option -> Tick the "Include subfolders" box -> Point it to the folder where you extracted the driver files and click Next/Ok.

You say it connects but drops, are you able to surf the net? or ping google? before the drop..
