internet connection fails every few minutes

I can see you are a little confused by the commands...

Execute the command as I gave it

Code:

grep -i nameserver /etc/resolv.conf

Typing 'echo "yahoo 8.8.8.8" >> /etc/resolv.conf' won't result in any output, but will add a nameserver entry in /etc/resolv.conf and can be checked by the first command. I only suggested it because, if there is no namserver entry, then hostnames can't be resolved to IP addresses.

Can you ping the router IP address (gateway) successfully? For internet connectivity this is a must.

Okay, and can you ping your router by IP address as I asked? Your 'ip route' output suggested default route was 192.168.0.252, so do

Code:

ping 192.168.0.252
