I've been experiencing this for the past few months where I'm cruising around on the internet (via firefox ie8 and chrome) and after a while, ranging from ten minutes to two hours although averaging somewhere around 45 minutes, my browser stops being able to load pages, new or old, and displays some variation of the connection being reset whilst loading. uTorrent is completely unaffected by this, so the connection to my router is still good. Lol, I might have wanted to state earlier that I'm on a wireless network, I think but am not sure that it's 802.11 n draft, that or g. I've tried using the Windows Network Diagnostics tool in the network and sharing center, but it finds nothing and offers to reset the card, which used to work for a while, then I'd have to do it again eventually. My card is the internal one that came with the laptop and has an on/off switch which I've tried but had no experience with. In the end I have to restart the thing which works till it times out, then I have to restart again etc. etc. If anyone might be able shed some light on my plight I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks.
