Internet connection disappears on laptop via wi-fi

In the information age, almost every person uses Wi-Fi, as this tool is the most convenient way to receive information. And most users have encountered the fact that the Internet on a laptop via wifi periodically disappears after setup.

WiFi

What causes unstable Wi-Fi connections?

  1. Slow connection speed, which falls and rises throughout the day (usually decreasing in the evening).
  2. Changes in speed over longer periods, it may be stable for several days, after which it begins to fall again.
  3. Connection failures devices. The device connects only in certain places or does not connect the first time.
  4. Communication interruptions on the connected device. It manifests itself in spontaneous disconnection from the Internet network and the same connection. This is often unnoticed, especially if you do not have programs installed that change the status from “online” to “offline” and back when the Internet connection status changes (for example, Skype).
  5. Also, a problem with Wi-Fi may be indicated by various application errorsinstalled on your laptop, which require a constant Internet connection.

How to turn on Wi-Fi on a laptop

Identifying the reasons for the disappearance of wi-fi on a laptop

First of all, inspect the router itself: is the network connection sensor working? Inspect the connection path router via cables to the modem, reboot the laptop, modem and router.

If none of this allowed you to find the true reason why the connection is acting up, then you need to find out the “culprit”, which could be the laptop itself, the router or the Internet provider. To exclude the last option dial the operator's hotline and find out if they have had any service failures recently.

Can connect the laptop directly to the modem via cable: When the connection becomes stable, it indicates that the problem is with the router or laptop.

Solution methods

If you have determined for sure that the provider has nothing to do with it, then try first simple possible ways solutions to this problem:

  1. Reboot your router.
  2. Restart your laptop.
  3. Securely connect your router and laptop chargers.

If these manipulations do not lead to success, move on.

Where to look for the cause of a weak signal

Problems with the router

A router may “cut the signal” for the following reasons:

Outdated model. Perhaps your router model is simply old and it is becoming unusable. First, try updating your router firmware. You may need to buy a new router.

Low performance. Check how many devices are connected to the network through your router, maybe it is simply slowing down due to the large number of devices connected to the Internet.

Technical problem. The microcircuit could burn out, or the cable or adapter could become unusable.

Important! Remember: you may have dropped the router or pinched its cables in some way before.

Interference in the working channel, created by neighboring outbred networks. This problem can be solved by switching to another communication channel.

One of the most common reasons for missing wi-fi on a laptop

Laptop problems

First, most likely reason loss of connection – outdated drivers, software for the correct operation of the laptop and router. Update the software on the official website of your router company and update the wireless drivers on your computer.

If this is unsuccessful, then you need to disassemble the laptop and conduct his cleaning: remove dust and other contaminants. Pay special attention to the wi-fi module: it must be clean. Also check the reliability of soldering of the module circuit. The fact is that it can simply be with a half-centimeter layer of dust, and therefore wi-fi will work at a minimum distance from the router.
