Sounds to me like the drivers are shot. I'd suggest going to the Device Manager and finding your network card in there, finding the manufacturer and model of the card and then going directly to their website for the drivers. If that doesn't work then it could be a windows issue in which case you could try a system restore to before the time it started playing up and see if that makes any odds. Failing that then my only guess is the card is probably on it's way out but in my experience components such as Network cards once in a blue moon type of thing actually give out and its usually software related. At least for me anyway.
system restore usually makes more problems, because most people dont exactly remember how far to go back and what could be changed, as in progs installed, registry entries from progs, files changed (although it says no user files created will be changed, the progs using those can be effected by system restore)
windows normally needs a kick when things like this happen, as in just uninstalling a device and rebooting, quicker really and doesnt do any chance of damage to files
system restore is as helpful as the old issue when booting when you see "Keyboard not detected press f1 to continue"
Lol, I've experienced the same problem 24 hours ago. I'm using Win8.1 Pro, solving it was kinda easy. It happened due to a de-sync between the router and my laptop, so the router kicks the client but the client is still connected, long story short explanation;
Code:
=> Remove the net, disconnect and then remove and reconnect. You have to retype the password but anyways...
That made it for me. Should you still experience problems then do the following,
Code:
- Open "CMD" aka "Console" as administrator then type the following commands in the following order into it ;
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
arp -d
ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /registerdns
- reconnect to the network if it still shows you an error, to get the latest network changes
If this should still not work, well then you would have to take a closer look into your system and find another possible cause of this problem. Though I would suggest removing the PC from the router overview ( log into router 192.168.178.1 -> login and there yo uremove it, then you reconnect to the network .. )
Yeah, tell me if it worked. And no, this is not a driver based problem. Just a simple configuration/desync w/e you would call this kind of stuff...
Oh and, it's never a mistake to keep the router firmware up to date

I've always had bad experiences with system restore. That'll probably be the last option.

Been there, done that, no luck.
Thanks for the suggestions anyways.
EDIT: It did work. For an hour. Then, disconnects again.

Worked like a charm. 3 hours, and no connection losses. Thank you, have a virtual hug and a cookie!
I need many hugz. Usually, when you get disconnected randomly from your router then the cause is a config fail/de-sync and the above just reset it to it's defaults (most likely). Though your problem could still appear someday/sometime again, probably sooner then later, idk. If you should continue having problems you can always pm me, eh.
And a tip from me, I've disabled IPv6 a week ago and it gave me +40 mb/s on my bedroom PC which used to have 1-5 mb/s on a 50 MB flat~. If you should feel like having a bad net, disable IPv6 probably and add google as your dns servers [ #DNS1 : { 8, 8, 8, 8 } #DNS2: { 8, 8, 4, 4 } ]. I'm using them, they load webpages waaay faster then the DNS server from my provider... Thanks google :3
