My internet crashes whenever I start up a game
« on: December 23, 2012, 02:55:44 PM »
Whenever I start up a game, my internet just crashes. It does this with ArmA, WarZ, Planetside 2, MW3, MW2. I haven't tried any other games, but whenever I start them up my internet just crashes. It happens when I'm at like the main menu of the games. I have no idea why it's doing this.

edit: and it also crashes when i boot up gmod

My old computer had some problems with overheating or was just stupid. Your computer might be heating up because it can't take the needs of ArmA or MW2 and all that. My computer used to crash its internet after I play demanding games for a while. I don't entirely know but that could be the case.
A minute after I told Rofl about this combo of VC's

It's a wireless, And on the case it has built in dials to control the fan power (speed). I'll pay attention to the temp next time I boot it up, so at what temp should I be worried?

post the temps
but most likely the game is overriding your wireless -- are you able to disable your internet via the press of a keyboard key?

Roughly 80F degrees


Edit: I ran game booster and switched to gaming mode and it crashed my internet. I sat there for like 5mins and the ssid didn't show up so I restarted it and finally it did. :/

try updating all your non-obvious drivers, or at least your network adapter drivers, also find out if anyone else on your network is having issues (if anyone else uses it)
