Windows 10: Windows 11 connects then disconnects from wifi every few seconds.

On a new HP laptop with windows 11 installed, it will connect to wifi for 5 seconds before disconnecting. It will then reconnect on its own. No other devices on this wifi network have this problem. I updated the drivers, ran the troubleshooting program, adjusted the power settings and am still having this issue.

Bridging wifi and ethernet connections – wifi keeps disconnecting

Hi all,

I am trying to use Windows to bridge my wifi connection to non wifi devices. I have successfully setup the bridge in Network Connections. However, the wifi only stays connected for a few seconds before it disconnects (everything is working as expected, with wired devices having internet access, until wifi disconnects). This seems to be something to do with the ethernet cable being connected, as when I disconnect the ethernet the wifi stays connected.

Things I have tried:

• Turning off power management and checking bios for any funky power management settings
  
• Setting "Priority & VLAN" to disabled
  
• Disabling "Automatic metic" and setting wifi to priority order – though you don't seem to be able to change this for specific connections when bridged.
  

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

P.S. everything works fine with bridge disabled and using internet connection sharing enabled on the wifi. However I am unable to connect to devices such as printers (hence why I am trying bridged mode).

 

Wifi disconnects for a few seconds

I am having an issue with my HP Envy 17 j177nr laptop. When connected to the internet via wifi, I will lose connection for a few seconds. During this, I will have a "no" symbol over the globe in the taskbar. The laptop will connect back to the internet after 3 - 5 seconds. This happens 2 - 3 times a week. It does not do this more than once in a day, but is annoying when it just randomly disconnects just to reconnect after a few seconds.

Before anybody says that loss of internet for a few seconds is no big deal, it IS a big deal when 90% of the internet usage on this laptop is Final Fantasy XIV, an MMO. Frequent sudden loss of internet can land me penalties and having feature blocked on my account in the game—especially if I am in an instanced dungeon or something with other players.

It is ONLY the laptop that disconnects for a few seconds, all other devices including phones, tablets, other computers including other laptops, gaming consoles, ect all remain online 100% when my laptop disconnects for a few seconds.

I Googled the problem (searched what I named the topic title) but ONLY results pertaining to wifi disconnecting every few seconds came up, there was absolutely nothing regarding wifi disconnecting ONCE but only for a few seconds.

Does anybody know what the problem could be?

• If you have an identical laptop try comparing the wifi and security settings of the one that does not disconnect with the one that does. If you find any differences change the settings of the one that does not work to the one that does.

• If you do not have an identical laptop see this post and the three replies for possible solutions: Wifi disconnects every 5 minutes.

@Samuria : If you have any suggestions please reply.
