My Wifi adapter keeps disconnecting me from my router... I always have a five bar connection but it still does this. Once I restart it works again. This happens randomly, it might happen agin after 12h. as much as 30min. I have never had this problem before and my router has not been moved. Drivers are up to date. I am on windows 10 and my adapter is the Asus PCE-N15.

Please help!

OK - good. I like to go from easiest to hardest (all being relative of course).

You still have some options:

1) Open the Event Viewer and check the logs for any errors or warnings that occur(ed) at the time of or just before the disconnect. Viewing the logs can be overwhelming but if you keep checking them you will soon get a sense of it all and be able to notice something unusual or unexpected: e.g., some application starts up and you know you did not start it. Also, often overlooked, is that you can right-click an entry to get more information about that entry.

2) The other option is too just reinstall the drivers and the ASUS adapter as if new. Could work but if there is some other factor involved (something that could be...

Check that the antenna's are on tight and correctly oriented.

Clear away and use some wire management to keep wires and cables away from the antennas.

Open the case and reseat the card.

Even though you have a strong signal there still could some form of interference taking place.

Try to be aware of your surroundings while working and you may discover some corresponding event or activity that occurs whenever you get disconnected.

Do not overlook the router either; check that all of its connections are secure. You did not mention other devices losing connectivity but just as a matter of due diligence check your other devices...

Poke about in the logs as best you can. Errors and Warnings are well flagged. Do not react immediately to any given entry - there are many such errors that occur without any necessarily negative effect. You are looking for a pattern, a consistency of occurence with the time of the disconnect.
Try to get an error code if at all possible if you find some corresponding log entry.
