Title: Every once in a while my computer decides it no longer wants to participate in

the internets.

Pages just stop loading.  It has something to do with the wireless adapter I think.  The worst thing I can do when it happens is try to repair the connection.  It freezes at disabling, then I have to reboot twice to get it to work again.  If I just reboot when it happens I only have to reboot once.

Gosh general that sounds like something way over my head too. I do not have an answer but I do hope you find one. RTR!

My computer at work has a similar problem. It seems to happen when I have several windows/files open at the same time. If I close a few it helps. Mine doesn't freeze up most of the time it just gets real slow. If it freezes I ctrl-alt-delete to get out so I can start over.

Good luck with the problem.

Through trial and error.  Pretty sure I have nailed the problem down to leaving my iphone charger plugged in.

It's ok just to use, but if I unplug phone and leave the cord in it messes up the wireless adapter somehow, not instantly though, it takes like 10 minutes.  Totally bizarre.
