Same issues. I up graded two laptops at different times. The first one I upgraded to win 11 and it started having the wifi dropping issues. Wifi works when laptop first started but drops after a few mins. Have to reconnect to network, then it drops again after a couple mins, and have to reconnect a 3rd time then it will work. All the while my other Win 10 lap top works just fine, as does my win 10 work laptop. Thought it was a fluke with the upgraded win 11 laptop. Then I upgraded my win 10 lap to win 11 and its doing the same thing. No issue with my network as none of the other connections to it have issues. I am about to down grade to Win 10 because all the internet says to do is run the troubleshooter which is of no use.
Windows 11 keeps dropping wifi
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've tried EVERYTHING recommended, including doing a reset of Windows 11. I can deal with it, except I can't depend on its not dropping when I'm on Zoom.

Hi
Also experiencing this with Windows 11. Troubleshooting has not helped.
When a new version of Windows is launched, there is always some bugs.
Since this is affecting many users, how we can escalate this to Microsoft to investigate and propose a fix?

FINALLY SOLVED! The problem was in the network adapter that came installed with Windows 11, I bought an exterrnal USB wireless network adapter and it worked!
