LM 17.1 WIFI disconnects after 1 hour unable to reconnect

Post by Ronshere »

Hi
My laptop (Dell Inspiron N1701) routinely disconnects after about 60 minutes.
It hangs if I try to reconnect and I have to reboot to reconnect.
I cannot find any settings regarding any sort of timing function for the connection.
Anyone have any ideas?

Oh, it stops even though I am using the laptop.
