Hey yall, this is my first Lenovo computer and I absolutely love it…besides the infuriating fact that it drops WiFi every couple minutes. Now I am by no means an expert on technology so maybe there is a very obvious reason and way to fix this, that would be awesome. It does this on every network so I know it’s a computer issue and all my other devices work fine. I have tried updating the drivers, turning off the power settings on the adapter, and scanning for every update I can but nothing works. I had this issue when I first got it, but it went away for a while. Now as of the past month it’s been back. It’s just so frustrating to have my WiFi connection drop every other minute and have to reload everything. Any tips would be greatly appreciated, should I just get a different computer? Am I cooked?
