This sounds like a hardware fault interior the router. initially attempt direct connecting the laptop to the modem with an ethernet cable and notice in case you may get a competent connection in case you could then as you assert the faulter is with the router you're able to attempt updating the firmware interior the router by logging into the producers internet site and following the appropriate training the only different easaily replaceable merchandise may be the routers capability brick. If that doesn't artwork i think of you will could substitute the router

This issue may occur if the Enable IEEE 802.1X authentication for this network check box is selected. If this check box is selected, but there is no server to authenticate against, the connection is disconnected. If you reestablish the wireless network connection, it disconnects again after a short time.



To resolve this issue, use one or more of the following methods in the order that they are provided. After you complete each method, verify that the issue is resolved. If a method does not resolve the issue, go to the next method.

Method 3: Troubleshoot USB wireless network adaptors

If you have a universal serial bus (USB) wireless network adaptor, you may experience problems that are related to the limitations of USB. If you have multiple USB devices, the USB network adaptor may share data bandwidth, power, or both to a level that it causes you to experience the symptoms that are described in the "Symptoms" section. To resolve this issue, try the following suggestions:



* If the computer has more than one USB bus, connect the wireless network adaptor to its own USB bus. Connect other USB devices to a different USB bus. Typically, two USB ports share one USB bus.

* Disconnect any unused or unnecessary USB devices.

* Use a powered USB hub to connect the network adaptor to your computer.
