Hey all,

 

I'm currently in a college dorm. I find that about every 5-10 minutes (if I'm lucky), my wired connection drops out. There's no way that I can be on the wireless while in the dorms. The school doesn't allow it.

 

It happens no matter what. Whether it be in MH3U or leaderboards in bit.trip.runner2. Sometimes I can stay connected long enough to finish a monster hunt. But usually that doesn't happen, and it's becoming increasingly frustrating.

 

I've had no issues staying connected at home on a wireless connection. I'm using an official Nintendo LAN adapter. Could it be the Wii U itself? Or is it more likely the college internet?

 

It just baffles me that a wired connection drops out so frequently.

Do you have anything else you can test a wired connection with? Do you have a netbook/laptop? Perhaps any other consoles?

I suppose it's most likely your college internet, is there anyone you can ask there about your problem?

Strange. I just played a 10 minute CoD match and didn't disconnect..

 

Could it be that Monster Hunter is less tolerant of disconnects? 

 

I'm about to check with my laptop, but I have a feeling that it might just be the fact that if Monster Hunter picks up 1 second (if that) of disconnect, it boots me off network mode.

 

Because every time I check the home menu right after a disconnect, my icon is blue. Never orange. It seems to disconnect very briefly, then reconnect.

My brother had this same problem, I don't know how he fixes it, but I know he did. I will ask him when I get a chance!

Any solutions, guys? Computer works fine on wired connection.
