    Why is my Wi-Fi randomly dropping to 0 for a couple seconds every so often?


    I've been having this problem when I play any sort of online game, where my connection randomly drops off for a few seconds, about every 30 seconds or so. It interrupts my games, and I have tried all the normal solutions Rebooting, Resetting Network adapter settings and drivers, rebooting my router, etc. and nothing has fixed it. does anyone know how I could fix this?also I would include a screenshot of my internet graph to show the problem, but it isn't letting me upload the image to here so just imagine a graph dropping to zero every 30 seconds with a big quick spike after it, sorry

    :)

    Wi-Fi Keeps Dropping

    My wi-fi regularly drops completely. It will show full bars yet I cannot connect. No other device on the network is affected. I think it's the wi-fi module that came with my PC.

    Sometimes I have to restart my PC to fix the issue but other times that doesn't work. The wi-fi just randomly drops for no reason.

    Thank you

    As stated, I don't know much about computers, but looking at the HTML file, its safe to assume the driver isn't working properly even though I uninstalled and reinstalled it correct?
