I have a persistent problem with my wireless internet connection. On the system (Windows 8.1) that I have, the internet is so unstable that it goes to limited
every 15 minutes and then resolves itself in another 5 minutes.
The issue sometimes gets resolved by restarting the PC. But it doesn't resolve, if I put my PC to airplane mode(turn off all wireless adapters) and then switch back out of airplane mode.
When the connection is shown to be limited, I still am able to browse the internet via my mobile using the same wireless network.
But, even then, If I ping the router, the round-trip delay/latency varies a lot (from less than 1 ms to as high as ~2000ms), on any device I have checked with (including other PCs and an android phone).
I am unable to ascertain whether the issue lies with my wireless router or with my wireless adapter or my ISP itself.
Please suggest as to what steps can I take to pinpoint where the problem lies?
P.S. : Can it be a router heating problem?
