Windows 10: Wifi connection keeps randomly dropping

Driving me nuts! There seems to be no consistency as to when or why. I leave my computer on and plugged in all the time. I don't think it has dropped while I was actively using the computer, but I can step away for a few minutes and come back and have to reconnect.


Power management has been checked and that isn't it. I searched for update for driver and it says the best driver is already installed. Can't find anything that seems relevant.


HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Internet Connection Keeps Dropping


Hello, are you always connected to the same router - or are you skipping to others? Suggest disabling these settings:




Also check your channel is not congested, and signal strength is adequate. There are freeware tools which can show you this information.

You might have to change band (frequency) - and in one scenario where someone was renting a place it was suggested the owner was restricting Wifi bandwidth...!

I'm sure others more experienced in these issues will comment.

 

WiFi is Randomly Dropping


Hello

My router is the Horizon box provided by my ISP (UPC) and has been working fine for the last two years. My HP laptop has been working fine for the two years I've owned it. However, about two weeks ago the laptop has started randomly disconnecting from the WiFi. The drops used to be few and far between, but now happen about once every thirty seconds and last for about a minute before the connection starts working again. During this time Windows 10 says that I am still connected, even though the internet isn't working.

I ran Windows Network Diagnostics and received the error message 'The remote device or resource won't accept the connection'. Upon clicking more details, it informed me that 'The device or resource (wpad.net) is not set up to accept connections on port "The World Wide Web service (HTTP)"'.

I'm running a fully up-to-date 64bit Windows 10 Creators Update. My WiFi card is a Realtek RTL8723BE and has the latest driver. I've disabled "Automatically detect settings" in the proxy section in the settings as many sites suggested, but it hasn't fixed the issue.

My HP laptop is the only device I own that has this issue. I'm typing this on my phone, which works fine.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Computer did automatic update to Creators update 2 days ago and ever since my wifi keeps dropping internet every 5-10 mins randomly. I cant find any updated drivers for my laptop. I am using Toshiba C55T-A5102 with a realtek RTL8188EE wireless lan . I have disabled the wireless lan , uninstalled the the wifi card and reinstalled in device manager, rebooted router, but still it drops randomly. Any tips would be great . Thanks
