As the title says, my laptop has issues with my bf's internet connection. It's an unsecured network and he is renting a room in the home so it's not his, therefore I can't really change router settings easily.
Usually we reset the router when I need to use it, and my laptop will connect fine, sometimes for days, other times only a few hours. I have been using ipconfig to get the settings that work when it is working, and when it goes out I set the ip and dns(google's public dns) and all that manually, and sometimes this works, but rarely for long.
Possibly important info:
It is an IPv4 connection setting that works
Windows 8.1
My laptop connects at home networks fine, other laptops at my bf's connect to the network fine. It's just my laptop at this one place.
It will connect and say limited when it is not working, and say unidentified network.
Have tried unistalling and reinstalling my wireless card.
