I've got a Lenovo G50-30 which keeps hanging, everything freezes up including the mouse and the keyboard. I just use it for internet access.
If I'm listenting to BBC Sounds then the last word keeps repeating like a stuck record. If I'm watching a Facebook reel it just stops. The laptop has even frozen when I've just been paging down through Facebook (and possibly ebay as well, though I might be confusing that).
The problem occurs with both Firefox and Brave browsers so it's unlikely to be them.
I use 3 mobile broadband and live in an area with poor mobile phone reception. Is it possible that my laptop is freezing because of a bad broadband connection or is it more likely to be a hardware/software fault?
