  1. My laptop loses the ability to connect to wifi completely when downloading large files.


    As the title says, when i try to download large files such as Steam/Epic/Genshin/..... games or even after using for a few hours (2-3 hour), my computer either loses connection to my home wifi completely and refuses to reconnect or it loses the wifi and mobile hotspot option. I used to just use the trouble shooter when it didn't connect but after sometime, that no longer works. Now, i have to turn the laptop off and leave it for a few hours and hope the problem resolves itself. Has anyone had a similar problem and found a fix ?

    P.s: It's a Asus gaming laptop. I've tried:

    -Resetting the Local Disk(CMy laptop loses the ability to connect to wifi completely when downloading large files. :)

    -Network Reset (several times)

    -Reinstalling the Wireless adapter( Realtek 8822CE Wireless LAN 802.11ac PCI-E NIC)

    Laptop loses wifi connection and often is difficult to connect.

    My HP laptop running windows Ten has developed and annoying habit of losing the wifi connection. Often times it will not reconnect or it takes multiple attempts to get it connected. Many times, I can be right next to the router or to the personal hot spot and it will still not connect.
    Many times rebooting will allow me to reconnect, but it is happening multiple times in a day. Any suggestions?

    Wi-Fi losing connection on large downloads

    I have a laptop here which loses it's Wi-Fi connection during long downloads. Pinging for hours on end is no problem, but as soon as I try to download something large Windows claims that I have no internet access and it can't reach the gateway anymore.

    The adapter is configured via DHCP and the lease is correct and remains through the connection loss. Replacing the Wi-Fi adapter, the motherboard or the inbuilt antennas does nothing, as does using a fresh Windows install on a test HDD.

    I am quite at a loss here. Do you guys have any idea what other cause this could have?

    laptop losing connection with WIFI card

    things:

    1. laptop is ASUS TUF FX705DT.
    2. runs on Win10 Home v1909
    3. has Realtek 8822BE Wireless LAN 802.11ac PCI-E NIC
    How does it behave:

    1. It sometimes goes down on its own with me just using it casually.
    2. It will most probably lose connection when I move my laptop a fair amount.
    How do I know if connection goes down:

    1. the wifi stays connected but gets disconnected from internet.
    2. then after awhile I get the world sign saying connected but no internet.
    3. then if I restart the wifi it doesn't discover any wifi signals near me and just says no networks and stays like that.
    What do I do:

    1. at first I used to restart laptop to solve the issue.
    2. then now I go to adapter settings and disable and enable my wifi.
    3. It solves the problem many times but again when i move my laptop too much it again repeats the cycle.
    4. but sometimes it just doesn't get enabled no matter how many times I try.
    Things I have done:

    1. reinstalling wifi drivers.
    2. doing network resets.
    3. turning network adapter to maximum power on all profiles.
    4. unchecking the allow windows to turn off thing in network connections.
    5. downloading SDI and running it.
    6. changing DNS.
    7. changing drivers.
    8. Hecc I even reset whole windows once.
