    Wifi constantly dropping and requiring restart to fix - Windows 10


    Recently bought a new laptop for online work, my first experience with Windows 10.
    Every 15-30 minutes the wifi drops and will not reconnect unless I restart the computer. I've searched for solutions, and some say to change the power management settings so that it doesn't turn off automatically to save power. Some say to update drivers. I've tried a lot of different fixes and none of them work. I've seen a lot of people say this is the fault of Windows 10 and cannot be fixed.
    The thing that really bugs me is that every time I (am forced to) update Windows 10 it gets worse. It used to be every few hours, then every hour, and now it's getting more frequent to the point I can't use the product I paid good money for.
    I've had issues with older Windows in the past but never this severe. I see now why so many people hate Windows. I will not be purchasing any Microsoft products in the future.

    :)

    windows 10 10147 - Atheros Qualcom WiFi drops


    hy,
    i have question about 10147 release. does anyone else have WiFi drops? it happens like 5-10 times a day. usualy when i search for windows updates(maybe a coincidence?) or when i reboot the pc. then i troubleshooted a bit, i figured out that WLAN autoconfig service stops working. if i restart the service all starts to work again. how can i prevent those kinds of wifi drops? in the mean time, wifi button gets grayed out and the list is empty, like no wireless is in range (it figures .. since service is not running i guess). i checked the event viewer and saw that many services drops out from time to time including sound (realtek). any suggestions would be appreciated. got a clean install here.
    thanks

    And now you know why Microsoft didn't release 10147 as an official build. *Smile
