For quite some time now (we're talking more than a year) my Realtek RTL8723AE will drop out everytime I have a large download. It will stay connected to the wireless network but say "no internet access". I have to go into wireless adapter settings, disable the Realtek RTL8723AE, & then re-enable it, and then it will start working again. I know it's not the router because none of my other devices using the router drop, not to mention that I've had more then one router over the last year and the problem occurred with all of them. I would either like to know if there is some kind of fix for this issue (I've seen a lot of others on the web having the same problem with this wireless unit) or, if not, can you please recommend a replacement that will work with this configuration? I'd prefer not to put in another Realtek RTL8723AE. Thanks so much for the help!
