I have been experiencing a problem lately where my mid-2010 iMac running Boot Camp (Windows 7) will drop into a "Limited or No Connectivity" state after about an hour. Previously this wasn't bothering me, as I would boot into Windows to play something like Skyrim, but lately I have been jumping over to play Star Wars: The Old Republic, and well, it's pretty irritating when you're in the middle of a Warzone or a boss encounter and your connection drops.
I have tried numerous things, such as updating the driver, uninstalling the device completely and then re-installing it from the latest software, removing Windows' ability to shut off the device to conserve power, and several other steps I can't recall presently. The issue has persisted.
Once the connection has dropped, it's fine once I disconnect and reconnect to my router. The issue does not recur until I reboot the machine. None of this happens while running Mac OSX. This is over WiFi.
If anyone has any ideas, I'd be grateful.
