Hi there community! So let me just get straight to the point.
My relatively new laptop has been giving me such a headache these past few weeks and all due to an issue regarding wifi connectivity.
The problem only seems to occur away from my home internet connection, as when I am at home, the internet connection is completely fine and never drops at all.
However, when I venture to places such as university/college and various friends apartments, the connection seems to have a mind of its own. Constantly disconnecting and reconnecting within a few seconds. This occurs about every 2/3 mins.
As an avid gamer, it does tend to get me into a lot of problematic and unfavourable situations with progress in games and hinders me from integrating into numerous gaming communities. Toxicity ensues!
I would just like to know if there is a simple solution for this? I would be more than happy to give out more information on the matter, where needed, but here are the basics.
TLDR: Laptop model - ASUS X555L
Wifi drops for 4-5 seconds and reconnects (@intervals of 2/3 mins)
Virus/Anti-Malware Protection doesn't seem to be the cause.
Most frequently happens when in online games.
Thank you for the help in advance!
Additional notes (edited) - I have already reinstalled the driver for the WIFI and re-installed, it has not solved the problem.
