I have a Macbook pro 15" mid 2010 model.
I've used windows 8 for a while and recently upgraded to windows 8.1.
This issue is only present when I'm using bootcamp. OS X works fine. Mobile phones, PS4, other computers all work fine
All this time i've had issues with the wireless suddenly becomming limited for no apparent reason.
I use a Apple Airport Extreem router. It's updated to the latest OS.
Today i bought a 5m ethernet cable to try to work around this issue but it still remains.
It persists both on wireless and on wired connections. The connection works great for a time, but after a time (from minutes to hours) the connection becomes limited.
Here is what I've tried to work around this
* Install the newest bootcamp software
* Reinstall the airport extreme
* Give the computer a static IP adress
* Changing the wireless channel to unpopulated channels
and noone of these work.
The only work around i have is that when the connection become limited i just switch to the 2.4ghz if i'm using the 5 ghz or switch to the 5ghz if I'm using the 2.4 Ghz
Does anyone have any advice to might be causing this problem.
Edit: When i run windows diagnostics tool i get that i have no connection to the gateway
