HELP! My Dell Mini 9 keeps losing WIFI.

Hey there. I was an early adopter to the Minis and got a Mini 9 as soon as they went on sale and have had more than a fair share of issues. First the SSD blew out on me and had to be replaced just before the one year warranty was running out and now the WIFI on the device is going out. I can connect to WIFI for about ten minutes but then it goes out on me and I lose it until later in the day, when I start the machine up again.

Have the machine up to date on drivers and it isn't a virus that I can find.

Anyone have any clues to this diabolical mystery?

 

thanks

Chris R.

Hi there, thanks a lot.

It says I have a Broadcom 802.11 Network Adapter and Realtek RTL8102 Family PCI-E Fast Ethernet NIC

GAH, where do I find which card I have? I had the first issue of Mini 9s, where do I find out for sure?

I looked in Sys Properties and that was what I found.
