Windows 11 keeps dropping wifi

Hi Salil-

I'm Kevin B. Windows user like you. I do apologize for the inconvenience, let me help you sort things out.

Kindly run network troubleshooter.

Go to settings > update and security.

Click troubleshoot.

Click internet connections.

Click run the troubleshooter.

See if the issue persists.

If so, kindly reset your network.

On your settings go to network and internet

Click on network reset.

It will load and takes time to finish.

Wait for it to finish and restart your machine.

Connect to your WiFi again and see if the issue persists.

Please let me know what will happen. Hope this will help and have a blessed day!

Thanks,

Kevin B.

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?

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?

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.

Glad that worked for you, but Microsoft needs to fix the actual issue as most laptops run solely with wireless.

Okay - so I’ve tried everything from troubleshooting, the network reset, clearing my router cache, and the only way I can connect to the internet now is by hotspot through my phone (neither my eero router or native cable router will connect. Also reset the modem and router with my surface several times. My iPhone connects to my routers, so it’s clearly just a surface/windows 11 problem. Can’t even request support through my surface since I cannot get online. What next?
