  1. Wifi disconnects. Tested 2 differents adapter


    Hello
    I have a new computer with an integrated PCI wifi adapter (TP-Link TL-WN881ND)
    I also tested a usb wifi adapter and I have the exact same issue :
    Wifi disconnects after a few minutes (first it stops receiving data, then it disconnects). When I run a speed test it always disconnects in the middle of it. If I only browse the web it can take longer.
    What I tried :
    - With windows integrated driver, and latest TP link driver
    - tested my usb adapter on another windows 10 computer : works fine
    - tested wired network : works fine
    - tried disabling "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power."
    - I have other devices on the same wifi, works fine. I also tested this computer on another wifi network, same issue.

    Thanks for your help.

    :)

    Wifi disconnects. Tested 2 differents adapter

    Network Get Disconnect while Download/Watching Youtube - Wifi USB Adapter.

    there are several reasons for a disconnect.
    1) signal strength. being too far from the ap and something changing in the environment ( like closing a door). this is especially important for 5ghz as it has much lower range than 2.4ghz. if you're on 5ghz try dropping to 2.4 and see if it stabilizes.
    2) noise/channel selection. in dense areas someone else's wifi ( or other wireless device) may be interfering with yours. selecting a different channel may help.
    3) usb disconnect. the usb port may lose connection to the adapter for a second. trying a different usb port or an extension cable may yield better results. the extension cable may also help with the signal strength issue as you can move it around and see if you get better signal.
    4) power saving, set your power saving to max performance on the usb ports and wifi.
