Problems with disconnecting

[JeremyS244]

First of all; thanks to all who reply or even look at this post; I appreciate ur time.

 

i have been experiencing a problem where my wifi will disconnect at random intervals constantly; the bar will constantly be at maximum connection however I will lose my discord and steam connection.

 

i currently use a tp link WiFi adapter - tl- wn823n. I don’t know if this is the problem; it should be noted that I have used a different dongle in the past (netgear a6210) which gave me constant lag spikes.
 

i have tried different USB ports to no avail; the most odd thing being that if I disconnect and reconnect to my router it works perfectly once more for a short while.

 

My router is below me if this would change anything.

 

Anyways; thanks to anyone who replies, I hope there is a solution that can be found!

Have you checked how busy the wireless channel is you're on? If you're on the same channel as everyone else it may cause connection issues. It's like yelling over people in a crowded room to try and keep a conversation with someone. Changing channels is like going to a less crowded room. There are apps that can tell you how congested a given wireless spectrum is and can tell you which one would be best to use.

Thanks very much for ur reply; will definitely look into that! There’s only me and my dad who is occasionally on the internet however from experience it’s clear to say that it does not matter at all.
