After upgrading to Windows 10 Pro 64bit on my Studio XPS I am losing internet connectivity when there are several websites open in a browser tried several. With normal web activity all seems ok.

If wireless, which card? Have you tried resetting the router itself by turning it off for about 30 seconds and then letting it power back up? It sounds like there is a software conflict between your system and the router, and it may simply be that the router needs to be rebooted in order to clear it up.

With a only a few packets being transmitted any "lost packets" can be resolved, but the more traffic the more conflict, and the higher probability of it locking up. If rebooting the router doesn't resolve the problem, or if it returns a few days after, you may want to look at updating the firmware on the router. Usually that isn't too difficult to do. Let me know the brand and model of the router and I'll look into info on how to update it. I too have the Dell Studio with a Netgear WNDR router with a similar problem, updated to Windows 10 64 bit.

It will restart the internet connection by rebooting the router or by rebooting the computer. When the internet trouble shooter works it mentions Ivp4 and Ivp6, does this have anything to do with the problem.

I am connected via cable and when the connection drops out I've tried connecting wirelessly but the connection remains dead. Both the Dell and the Netgear tell me they have the latest drivers. I think getting that "ipv4 and ipv6" messages are generic errors that indicate you're not getting an IP address from your router.

You don't get the address, the system throws out that message, etc. I looked around and couldn't find a specific Broadcom Windows 10 driver for that card.

BCM Gigabit Ethernet. Which driver version do you have currently? Since the Studio XPS isn't on the list of systems we tested as being compatible with Windows 10 we probably won't supply any new drivers for that system, so I'm not sure what to tell you.

When you are connected, how long does it last? What if you removed the current driver, rebooted the system to see if Windows has a native driver that might be more compatible than the one installed on the system? Have you tried that? As for the Netgear WNDR router, if it has the latest firmware there isn't much that can be done.

They have a firmware 1. Is that what is on your router now? I have a Dell Studio XPS with a cable connected D-Link DIR router which began having a similar, repeated dropped internet problem when I updated to Windows 10 64 bit from Windows 7. I can restart the internet connection by rebooting the router, rebooting the computer, or simply disconnecting and reconnecting the cable between the PC and router. Win 10 advised me I had the latest Broadcom driver installed and automated Dell support did not indicate a newer driver was available for the XPS How does one go about finding and downloading the updated driver?

The Dell Studio XPS uses a Broadcom BCM network card. As highseas reported above, the newer driver, NetLink® 57xx x64 Version You can find, and download, the newer Broadcom network drivers from their download site. Just make sure you download the correct version, either the bit or bit version depending on which version of Windows you currently have on your system.

On my Studio XPSI could not find any solution to the misbehavior of the Broadcom Net-Link Gigabit ethernet card under under Windows In fact I strongly suspect the problem Studio XPS drops off the internet repeatedly started with one or more Windows Updates sent out at least to Windows 7 bit machines that had reserved an upgrade shortly before the release date.

I know that is when my problem with the BCM began. I performed the upgrade to Windows 10 in hopes of solving the problem, but it only got worse. I tried but was not able to get back to Windows 7 from Windows 10 the easy way Windows 10 did its "Go Back to Windows 7" thing, internet connection drops when downloading large files windows 10, after which I received the alarming message that "Windows cannot start. System restore was impossible because there was no restore point available. Luckily I had make a full backup about two weeks before the abortive attempt to upgrade to Windows 10, and a System Image Recovery did finally succeed, although it took many hours.

I am now happily running Windows 7 again, the Broadcom NIC is working just fine. I have learned a couple lessons, and will not be upgrading to Windows 10 any time soon, probably never on this PC, which even though it is years old, is very adequate for my needs.
