    Reinstall your network driver. Power cycle your modem/router. Create an exception for WoW in the Windows Firewall.

    If none of that works return to us.

    Thank you for the quick reply,

    i have done all except powercycle, i assume this is turning the modem on/off?

    Yes, power cycling is just turning it off, wait about 30s, then turn it back on.

    Related note: When I first ...got... Win 7, this happened to me ALL the time. Make sure you did actually *buy* the software (most don't buy Ultimate, it's very expensive and totally unnecessary for 90% of users). Non-purchased Windows 7 can have the same issue if it isn't a new retail version. Doesn't apply to all, but it can be a factor.

    An actual power cycle is not turning modem off but actually unplugging it, cutting 100% power going to it. While 30 seconds is almost always enough a proper power cycle is 2 minutes or more without power

    IF the Gift is legit no reason to downgrade however if its not I suggest buying windows 7 home premium x64
    as its the cheapest and suited for most home users.

    Don't pirate your software or things like this might happen. Really any version will work for your needs.

    When I read this title, I thought I was going to see a montage of disconnects in windows 7.

    hm thx for the replies,

    In response to buying stuff, i'm not a rich person unfortunatly but i guess OS programs are quite important and not to be illegaly obtained. Then again there is no actual prove that this is causing the game to disconnect.

    Pretty sure you started with this:

    i recently bought windows 7 ultimate, but now when i play WoW i keep getting disconnected after 1-2 minutes of playing.
    Doesn't really matter if you're rich or not, if you pirate don't expect too much from this and many other forums (for support). There is just no way of knowing what your image may or may not have included, missing key things etc.

    That said, reinstall Windows, update it and your drivers. Also do the suggested power cycle on your router/modem.

    Try running a trace to see if its an obvious networking issue.
    Mostly advised doing it via the command prompt, but my preference for something a bit more helpful is using PingPlotter Free since that can repeat it over time and better catch intermittent issues.
    I do it by tracing to the login server (eu - login.eu.battle.net) but you can by realm also.

    Try this: Go to the Device Manager, Go to network adapter and double click that, most likely realtek but could be different. Anyways go to the advanced tab and look for Speed & Duplex. Click the drop down box and try 100 mbps full duplex, or half duplex and see if that works. It worked for me when having disconnect issues.

    Is a waste of money buying a legit copy of Windows? Somehow I have a hard time believing you. regardless the disconnect issues can be a lot of different things which the other kind people in this thread can help you with, I don't know much about traces.

    It's not waste of money to pay for something that MS has spent millions and millions of dollars to create. Would you also steal a car? Because it is, in a matter of fact, exactly same thing as pirating a software.
