It often happens that the Wi-Fi signal is strong enough, but the link keeps dropping. This can be caused by a variety of reasons, but in most cases there are only a few.
This should be checked:
This can occur because other WLAN networks in the area are using the same channel, resulting in a loss of link. You can use the WIFI Analyzer tool for this. Another thing you can do with this program is find out which channels are less used in your area. This allows you to change your network to suit that channel. You can learn how this works in our handy tips.
Please check if WLAN is turned on on your computer. It’s that simple. Many laptops have a switch that lets you turn WiFi on or off. These buttons are usually unnoticeable, so it’s easy to press them accidentally.
3. Even if your device is near the router, moving the router may help. Sources of interference such as cordless phones and radios can change the signal without you noticing.
4. An IP address can only be used once within a network. However, problems can quickly arise if two things try to use the same IP address. For this reason, it is best to always use the IP number provided by your DHCP server and give it a static address when necessary.
5. It’s also possible that your network card cannot handle how your WLAN network is configured. This is the case. Find out about your tools. Keeping your drivers up to date also helps with this.
