WiFi Keeps Dropping on My Laptop After Windows Update – Any Fixes?

Featured Replies

Posted

So, I recently updated my Windows 10 laptop, and ever since, the WiFi connection keeps dropping randomly every 5-10 minutes. It’s super frustrating because I’m in the middle of work or streaming something, and suddenly I lose internet. I’ve tried restarting the router and the laptop, but that only helps for a little while.

I also went into the Device Manager to update the network drivers, but Windows says they’re already up to date. Checked the power management settings too, making sure the laptop doesn’t turn off the WiFi adapter to save power, but no luck. The weird part is that my phone and other devices stay connected fine on the same network.

Has anyone else experienced this after a Windows update? Is there a way to roll back the network driver or some other tweak that might help? Would love to hear what worked for you or any other troubleshooting ideas!
