Windows 10: Windows 10 1909 update messed up my Wi-Fi

I am an Alienware 17 R4 user and have a Killer Network 1435 adapter, and my connection keeps flaking out. It does it completely randomly, for a while it is connected and my internet connection is working normally, and then it suddenly stops just to disconnect from the network and say that it's unable to connect to it.

I tried all sorts of troubleshooting, around 15 different things, from simple adapter restarts, over completely clean reinstalls of the drivers, all the way to messing around with the command prompt. Nothing worked and I have no idea what to do anymore.

My laptop was in standby as it was getting its fan and battery replaced for around a month and a half, but before it I updated Windows and that's when it started causing problems. My laptop's warranty just recently ran out and Alienware is being a true corporate business and refuses to provide chat support so I'm asking here. Something I recently noticed is that soon after I had plugged my laptop in, the network drops.


Also, I ended up reinstalling Windows which ended up messing up my Settings and Start. I have seen someone else have the same problems and they fixed it with some registering changes but that sadly didn't help here.
