I've run into a problem on my home wifi network. My laptop, which is running windows 7, keeps losing internet connectivity every few minutes. All other devices on my network are working perfectly fine.

The status bar shows that I am connected to the network and I have internet access. However, I cannot open any web pages. When I open up network and sharing center, it shows that I am connected to the wireless network but i have no internet connection. I tried running the troubleshooter but this found no problems with the connection.

Restarting my modem and router fixes the problem temporarily, but after about 5 minutes the internet stops working again.

Any help regarding this matter would be greatly appreciated
 
Okay...well we need more information...what router, are you using the latest firmware, which browser you using, what are the other devices you mention which work fine...
 
It's your antivirus. Disable it and try again.
