automatic network repair help

I am really hoping someone can help me out here.
My pc is switched on all the time but sometimes my wireless connection is lost.
If i right click and repair my connection this always resolves it.
The question is does anyone know if there is a program out there that can detect when your wireless connection is lost and then repair it automatically.
This would be extremely helpful as sometimes i need to connect to my pc when i am away from home.
It has happened quite a number of times when i have forgotten to bring a typed document with me to work and when i log in to my pc it won't connect.
I have searched the internet for a program but can't find anything.
there's bound to be something out there that can do this surely.
here's hoping someone can help me here.
thanks for reading and any help given.

Sounds like your signal strength isn't very good.
What percentage of signal are you receiving?

 

my signal strength has always been good
56mbps and has never dropped below 36mbps

It doesn't happen often but as usual it does when its something important.

i thought maybe the network magic software might work but i tried installing that last night and it just made my system crash.So i had to uninstall it again.

cheers

 

Sounds to me like your DHCP service on your router is expiring IP addresses too quickly. There are a few ways I can think of to solve this:

1. Assign your computer a static IP address in the form of a Fixed Lease. In that case, the IP would never change. Your router may or may not support this feature.
2. Set the Maximum Lease Time in your router to the highest number it will support. By default, home routers usually default to 60 minutes. The higher you can set this number, the better for your situation. IF you have a very cheap router, this may not be an option either.
3. If you can't change the values listed in 1. and 2. due to limitations in your router, there might be a workaround you can perform. Write a DOS batch file which releases and renews the IP address on your computer and make a scheduled task to run it on a regular basis. For instance, if you lose your connection once in a 12-hour period you should have the scheduled task run every 11 1/2 hours or so. Here's an example of what I'd put in your batch file:

Code:

IPCONFIG /release [I][adapter]
[/I]IPCONFIG /renew [I][adapter][/I]

...where [adapter] = the name of your wireless adapter. If you don't know what it's called, run the command

Code:

ipconfig /all
