    Hello,
    I have the same problem:
    when I connect to a local network, my computer disconnects after a certain time.
    I try to fix it, and the following error message appears: Clearing the ARP cache when I want to repair?
    Can you help me? Thanks.

      I solved my problem by resetting my Livebox.

          - ARP Command -

          Check ''Wireless Network Connection Status'' and note the following parameters:
          Interface / IP Address 192.168.0.X IP address assigned by the router to the computer
          Internet Address / Gateway 192.168.0.250 Gateway IP address (check the last digit)
          Internet Address / DHCP 192.168.0.1 DHCP server IP address (may be identical to gateway)

          Under Windows - Start - Run
          type the command CMD, then at the prompt:
          C:\ARP -A and note the physical address [00-1E-2A-F8-B9-B2]

          C:\ARP -S [gateway address] [physical address]
          C:\ARP -S [DHCP address] [physical address] if different from the Gateway

              I indeed saw that under DOS, the command ARP/? gives many parameters, but it's still simpler to stop the Routing and Remote Access service and set it to manual to solve the problem once and for all.

              I don’t know any other way to check it.
              As for the static IP address, it is indeed not related.
              Regards.

                Hello,

                Thank you again for your help,

                Is there a way to check if Routing & Remote Access is enabled without going through System - Services? (command prompt...?)
                I will try to remove the static IP tonight, but I don't think there is a connection, right?

                  Hello,
                  I'm sorry that it's not working for you.
                  However, please check if Routing and Remote Access are disabled after startup. You need to disable the service permanently.

                    Thank you
                    however it hasn't really changed?
                    I tried manual and disabled for Routing & Remote Access (control panel - admin tools - System - service)
                    I had the impression the first few times that the duration between each disabling was getting longer, but eventually it cut out after 5 minutes
                    And I still have to reboot the PC

                        You need to stop the "ROUTING AND REMOTE ACCESS" service, after that it works fine.

                          I have the same problem

                          Arp -d* didn’t change anything,
                          I couldn't find a solution on the forums,

                          I switched to a fixed IP.

                          When I have interruptions (it happened in Ethernet & Wifi) what’s annoying is that I have to reboot my computer when the problem occurs... (the interruptions happen every 2 to 20 minutes)

                          Thank you.

                            Hello,
                            I doubt this is the solution, but you can always try manually clearing the ARP cache by going to Start > Run > cmd and then arp -d *
