Windows 10: Computer keeps dropping wifi. Other devices don't have this issue.

I will try to word this the best I can. (I am not too good at explaining things.)


So I would be playing some online game on my computer and then suddenly, I would get connection errors on everything. What makes this whole situation confusing would be the fact that every other device except mine would not have wifi drops. Thanks for reading.

WiFi keeps dropping

Hi Tampawned,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

I understand the inconvenience you are facing currently. Let me help you in resolving the issue.

I suggest you to follow the methods below and check if it helps.

Method 1: Windows 10 has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with Internet connection. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter to check if the issue
is with your internet.

Refer these steps:

• Press Windows key +X, select Control panel.
• Change the view by option on the top right to Large icons.
• Click on troubleshooting and click on the view all option on the left panel.
• Run the Internet Connection troubleshooter.

If the issue persists, I suggest you to try the following steps and check if it helps.

Method 2: If this happens even when you are working on the computer, then this could be an issue with the WiFi drivers on the computer. You may try updating the WiFi drivers either from the computer
manufacturer or Qualcomm website. Please go to these websites and search for the latest Windows compatible drivers for your WiFi card model and then install them on the computer. You may try all the troubleshooting steps from the article given below:

and wireless network problems

If you cant find the drivers for Windows 10 then I suggest you to install the latest driver in compatibility mode and check if it helps.

Now, to install in Compatibility Mode, follow these steps:

a. Locate the executable file (.exe file) for the driver installation program.

b. Right-click the file, and then click Properties.

c. In the Package Name Properties dialog box, click the Compatibility tab.
