Problem
My computer fails to open some websites randomly. I recently updated to Windows 8.1 and had everything working for 3-4 weeks. From then I started getting bluescreens but fixed it by updating my network driver. Now I'm getting random connection failures to different websites. I'm the only one from 5 in the network with this problem.
Answer
The problem was another access point in range with the same SSID
than a saved one. To remove it open a command prompt(admin rights needed) and type netsh wlan show profiles
and copy the name of the network that is causing the problem. After that enter netsh wlan delete profile name="ProfileName"
and its done.
If you don't want to remove the network you have to get it higher in the "Connection list", so Windows stops trying to connect to the other network. To do this, open the wlan list, disconnect from the current access point click it again, hit the "Connect automatically" button and connect. After this the network should stop changing and you're happy again!
Thanks for helping!
irql not less or equal
. Im using the Google DNS, just like everyone else. I have some entries likeTimeout for the name xyz happened because no of the configured DNS servers responsed
. The driver update updated from version 3.x.x to 10.x.x thought, so I think the crash was really because of some bugs in the driver.ERR_NETWORK_CHANGED
and saysThe connection to xyz.com was reset due a network change.
So it seems like my computer is changing networks in behind?
