Inspiron 5675, wireless drops out
Hello i recently well 6 months ago I brought a Dell inspiron 5675 and when I connect it to the wireless network the while house drops out and we need to reset the router. This is becoming a problem as I brought this pc to stream on twitch and do YouTube but without internet it's hard to do that and I'm also doing other work on it but that's also requires wifi but as I said when I connect to the wireless everything in my house drops
Any support would be greatly appreciated.

So I did the first one but that didn't work and In the morning I'm going to take my desktop into another room and plus it into a Ethernet to see if that still kills the wifi but right now in Melbourne it's 11 at night so I'm going to get some sleep first

Shaunterr,
Right-click your WiFi icon at the bottom right corner of your PC desktop and click Open Network and Sharing Center. Right-click your WiFi adapter and click Properties. Go to the Power Management tab. Un-tick the box for Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.

Are you connecting using the network name and passcode, or are you using wireless protected setup?
How many other devices do you currently have on wireless?
This really sounds like a type of wireless configuration issue.
