My Laptop's Wifi device lost signal Automatically
I am facing an issue with my laptop it drops its wifi communication signal after some time.
At the restart time, it auto-connected to my wifi router but as usual, it disconnected and off the wifi device that has lost my work. I do many things on it as updating its driver but not improvement has been shown. I need help to fix it???

It sounds like you're experiencing frustrating connectivity issues with your laptop's WiFi. Here's a step-by-step solution to troubleshoot and hopefully fix the problem:
1. **Check Your WiFi Router**: Start by ensuring that the issue isn't with your WiFi router itself. Other devices connected to the same network should be functioning normally. If they are, the problem likely lies with your laptop.
2. **Update WiFi Drivers**: You've already tried updating the drivers, but let's make sure it's done thoroughly. Sometimes, Windows Update doesn't install the latest drivers. Go directly to the manufacturer's website for your laptop model and download the latest WiFi drivers from there. Install them and restart your laptop.
3. **Reset Network Settings**: Resetting network settings can often resolve connectivity issues. To do this, go to your laptop's Network settings, find the option to reset network settings, and follow the prompts.
4. **Forget and Reconnect to WiFi Network**: Sometimes, there can be a glitch in the saved network settings. Try forgetting the WiFi network on your laptop and then reconnecting to it. Go to your WiFi settings, find the network you're having trouble with, and select "Forget". Then reconnect by entering the WiFi password again.
5. **Disable Power Saving Mode for WiFi**: Sometimes, power-saving settings can interfere with WiFi connectivity. Go to your laptop's power settings and make sure that the power-saving mode for the WiFi adapter is disabled.
6. **Check for Interference**: Nearby electronic devices, thick walls, and other environmental factors can interfere with WiFi signals. Try moving closer to the router or placing it in a more central location in your home or office.
7. **Scan for Malware**: Malware can sometimes affect network connectivity. Run a thorough scan of your laptop using reputable antivirus software to check for any malicious programs.
8. **Reset TCP/IP Stack**: Open Command Prompt as an administrator and run the following commands:
```
netsh winsock reset
netsh int ip reset
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
```
9. **Check Hardware**: If none of the software solutions work, there might be a hardware issue with your laptop's WiFi adapter. In this case, you may need to contact the manufacturer for further assistance or consider replacing the WiFi adapter.
10. **Contact Support**: If all else fails, reach out to the manufacturer's support team or seek assistance from a professional technician who can diagnose and resolve the issue.
Hopefully, one of these solutions resolves your WiFi connectivity problem and prevents further disruptions to your work. Let me know if you need further assistance!

@malyk219 Yes! I have applied many steps as you suggest but it did not solve it as permanently. I have updated the wifi device driver from the Dell support official site from Drivers & Download option and it updates the driver. Currently, My wifi communication is still connected for about 8 to 10 minutes but suddenly drops the signal without any notification.

@JACKY 889 I am sure you have applied many ways to resolve this issue. Same issue was happened with my HP's laptop also. My WIFI automatically disconnect regularly. It was very pathetic to connect your laptop in every 10 to 15 minutes. So I checked my windows update settings and update my windows properly. Now issue has been resolve now. You can also try and update your windows properly. Hope it will help you.
