Hello,
I've searched around and found nothing similar to my own problem, hence this post.
I have an Aspire 5750 with windows 7.
The issue didn't appear from the beginning, but nearly a year later and has ever since. The issue is as follows:
When I start up my computer, everything is fine. I find my router via wifi and can use internet. However, if I slightly move the computer, or even tilt the screen a bit, 9 times out of 10 I lose the connection. The wifi-icon shows the connection bars together with a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark.
If I disconnect and try reconnect it says that I cannot connect to the network. If I go to the network and sharing center to deactivate my wifi and activate it again, my computer freezes and I'm forced to turn it off by holding down the on/off button.
If I instead restart my computer, or just put it in sleep mode, and start it up again the network works again most of the times. From start, the icon is instead with the bars and a cross. Sometimes I have to disconnect wifi via "Fn+F3" and reconnect, and then everything works fine. Until I move the computer..
So this makes me somewhat split about what's wrong. If I move something and get disconnected, then obviously it should be a hardware problem. But, as I can restart my computer, or put it in sleep mode/energy save mode and back, to make it work again it shouldn't be a hardware problem..
Here is from ipconfig, if that helps.
Appreciate your time!

That's all for now, thank you.
