Wireless connection keeps dropping while at school but not at home.

Hello and Welcome to the Community Forum,
 
Please go to the taskbar and right click shut down Webroot and then see if Webroot is the cause and then make sure you re-enable Webroot again.
 
Check your Firewalls in Webroot and see if this is an issue as well.
 
Let us knwo your findings,

Hello Jill,
 
Would you please try to follow these instructions and see it that works.
 
To change settings for active connections:
 

1. Open the Webroot main interface.
2. Click PC Security.
3. Click the Firewall tab.
4. At the bottom of the panel, click View Network Applications. > The Network Applications dialog opens.
5. Click on a radio button to allow or block a process or port address

Managing active connections:

The if that doesn't work would you disable your Webfilter in your browser and see if you can connect better with that disabled.
 
If you tell me what browser you are using I can tell you how to disable your Webroot Webfilter extension. Usually it's in the browser Settings/Extension.
 
If you find that disabling the Webfilter is the cause of your connection issue or/and setting the active connections to Allow doesn't help then would you please submit a Support Ticket so that they can check this out for you. This is free of charge with an active subscription.
 
Would you let us know how you doing and if this was resolved or not? Thanks!
 
 
Kind Regards,

Hi Jill,
 
If you are using FF go to the upper right hand side and open the settings /add ons/ then you will see extensions to the left and disable  Webroot Webfilter. and see if your connection works better.
 
In Chrome go to the upper right hand side open Settings and to the left hand side you will see Extensions/ uncheck the Webfilter and start browsing like you normally do with both browsers and see if your connection doesn't disconnect.
 
If the Webfilters are causing this issue then you need to submit that support ticket so they can check your logs.
 
 
Please get back to me if the webfilters are causing the issue.
 
 
Regards,
