Windows 10: WiFi Drops Intermittently [Solved]

My WiFi was intermittently dropping. Tried nearly all the online suggestions without success,including solutions relating to the WiFi driver and hardware, installed software. and turning off various settings in the Operating System. Finally, I reinstalled the Intel Chipset driver on the motherboard. This solved the WiFi problem. The laptop computer is a Dell Insprion 17 model 5770 running Window 10.* Moved from Community Participation Center* Original title: WiFi Drops Intermittently

Windows 10: Wifi drops intermittently

Windows 10: Wifi drops intermittently

I upgraded to Windows 10 yesterday from Windows 8.1

Within 30 minutes of the upgrade, the wifi icon was red. I reset my internet and the computer recognized the internet. Within 10 minutes, I was dropped again. Checked my phone (was connected) and ran a speed test - great results. Cycled through troubleshooting
for connection issues - claims the issue was fixed - connected again.

20 minutes go by, the wifi drops again.

Clearly the frequency of the dropped wifi is troubling...what can I do?

Computer has ample RAM, a great processor and wifi was never an issue on Windows 8.1

Anyone know what to do?

 

Wifi keeps dropping out (after Windows 10 update)

Thanks Jonathon, this worked for me. No issues so far since I followed your method like more than 3 weeks. Thanks to the forum too and the one who started this thread.

 

HP Envy 34 ALL in ONE wifi drops intermittently

Thanks for the reply. The Wifi still drops intermittently and requires manual disconnecting and reconnecting.

I have updated the driver. I tried the following:

• • Type netsh winsock reset and press Enter.
  • Type netsh int ip reset and press Enter.
  • Type ipconfig /release and press Enter.
  • Type ipconfig /renew and press Enter.
  • Type ipconfig /flushdns and press Enter
  I also tried the methods below:
  
  netsh int tcp set heuristics disabled
  
  netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled
  
  netsh int tcp set global rss=enabled
  
  netsh int tcp show global
  
  And I also got a WLAN report showing multiple 11004 events:
  
  11004
  2016-07-02T00:50:30
  
  [+]Wireless security stopped.
  
  
  
  Is there anything else I can do?
