Windows 10: Internet Connectivity Issues

I've been having an issue with my laptop [Precision 5540] all of a sudden. It refuses to stay connected to my wifi and keeps disconnecting every few seconds but for the few seconds it's connected, the internet works just fine. None of the other devices in my home are having this problem. I've tried:1. Resetting the router2. Forgetting and reconnecting3. Windows troubleshooting It said there weren't any identifiable problems4. Running a computer health check again no problems5. Checking for updatesI'm not sure what to do at this point. Did I click something accidentally that’s causing this
