I have a Netgear N300 wireless usb adapter and an Acer desktop w/ Windows 7. I just installed this adapter onto this computer last night, and since every now and then it disconnects from the internet. It'll still stay connected to our router, but says I have no internet access. Funny thing is all I have to do is disconnect and then reconnect to the connection and boom the internet comes back on for a little while and then goes back out.
Every now and then I get a message saying "this computer has the same ip address as another computer" (There are 5 people living here so it's no hacker or anything). I have done some googling and a lot of people say do (Windows key + R > Run cmd > ipconfig/renew) to renew the address and give me a new one. Well 15-20 minutes later I got disconnected again with the same message. I've tried tinkering with the connections via changing the settings in properties and what not but no dice.
I have a gut feeling it's my 360, which is connected to to the PC using an Ethernet cable, I rebridged the connections and still no results.
If anyone has any ideas or can give me some trouble shooting that would be cool.
