Wifi connections goes "Limited" frequently.

Question

So i&#x27;ve had this issue ever since i installed windows 7 ultimate via bootcamp on my mac. When i go in games or even the browser, my ping sky rockets and the internet connections always drops every 3 minutes saying "Limited Access". I cant even browse properly or play in games without losing connection and its highly annoying. This only happens on the Windows 7 side, and no its not my connection, the wifi works well with my other computers and gives no problems. ALL Drivers are up to date on the windows 7 partition. Any suggestions or help? Please. Will be greatly appreciated 🙂.

It could be related to IP address/DHCP issues. Can you check Event Viewer for any WiFi events?

Do you have Windows sleep enabled? Do you have the ability to run Wireshark and look at packet traces? What is the brand/model of the wireless access point?
