Hello there, I've had a problem with my Dell Inspiron 15 connecting wirelessly to the internet for quite a while now. Just about every day, there's a period of time when I can't connect to the internet, no matter how many times I try to connect, and if I do connect, it only stays connected for a minute or so, and then I'm back to trying to connect over and over. I know that it's not my router or my modem, because none of the other computers or devices in my house have the same problem. I'm the only one having these connectivity issues. I reset my router and modem regularly, thinking it would help, but it doesn't. I've changed the channel on my router and that's done nothing, either. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks!
