PC disconnects from wi-fi
My wife's PC has the annoying habit of occasionally not making wi-fi connection to the internet at switch on and sometimes disconnecting from the internet for no apparent reason when everything is up and running. Following online advice I have tried downloading from the internet and installing a new network adapter driver. I have also switched off the network adapter power saving mode. The PC has a newish wi.fi USB dongle and the hub is in the same room as the PC.
Is there anything else I can try or is it some inherent fault in the PC causing the problem? My own cheapy laptop, which is 6 years old, gives no trouble in this regard. My wife keeps threatening to dump, what seems to me, a perfectly good PC because of this problem. I should add that getting the PC to connect / reconnect is not a problem.
