Recently installed Windows 11. The wifi remains connected for sometime and then after some time drops. Nothing I do can reconnect again. Only a complete restart fixes the wifi and then after sometime the connection gets dropped again. What can I do to fix this?

    I dual boot. When I am using Windows 11 I regularly lose WiFi connectivity. When I boot into Linux I have never lost WiFi.

    That's interesting. I was nervous about allowing that W11 update but went ahead late last week. I'll watch to see. Hopefully a fix for this recurring problem was included in that.

    I need to check for that build, pretty sure it is an Auth issue, if I use older Auth, there is no issue

    Windows just notified me of a new version of 11. 22F2. I downloaded and installed. Took about an hour. so far no issues but its only been 2 days.

    it's just a mess to see a huge number of users having the same issue, and Microsoft didn't even look at the cause of the issue.

    I really wish to know why some of us for example has the power management feature linked to their Wi-Fi adapter while others don't have it. Is it linked with the hardware manufacturers and the running system?! I wish to know if HP for example is providing a software for its laptop that controls the power consumption on their devices.. why I don't have the rest of options related to the USB and the network adapters

    can you see the difference?

    by a simple search, you'll find others talking about the same thing, some says it's linked to the power plan you're using on your device like here:
    Question - Why are the Advanced Power Setting options so different between my Acer and my Alienware | Tom's Hardware Forum (tomshardware.com)

    the irony, I can't even create an high performance plan because that thing is missing from the windows on my laptop 😂

    so, yeah! I don't have a control over my network adapter and how it responds to power saving profile.
