Default HELP Wireless Networks Disappearing

I have a dell laptop and use wireless to get internet. Usually I pick up around 6 wireless signals. I can connect to a network fine and it'll work perfect. A few times an hour the connection will drop AND when I go to reconnect it shows they're are ZERO wireless networks available. I'll wait between 5-15 mins. and ALL 6~ networks magically reappear again, and I'm able to connect perfect. This turns into a vicious daily cycle. Only been happening last few days.

I really appreciate anyone's suggestions.

The connection cut out 2 times while I typed this post. The problem's happening around every 10 minutes now.

There could be interference between all of the networks. Are you using the default network name? Are you using encryption?

I didn't gather that OP was stealing internet. If so, bad bad OP.

Probably a really easy solution to the question posed above to bad I doubt anyone will help you. Buy your own connection and router, set up a network with a network key and you'll be fine

???? I use my own wireless connection and router.

Just letting you guys know that mine and ALL other wireless signals disappear at the same time, so its not like my router is the problem etc.

So if anybody can think of anything, id appreciate it alot.
