Disconnects from internet

[corgar]

My laptop is an HP i3, relatively new. The internet disconnects usually at coffee shops but sometimes like today at the public library. I uninstalled the drivers and updated the software. I thought the problem disappeared but today again at the library discovered twice it needed to be reconnected. Last hour or two no problems.

Any knowledge on this?

Where are the updated drivers from ? ?

I read online to uninstall the drivers and Windows will reinstall them automatically. It did. This morning I was at a Starbucks and the internet refused to connect after rebooting several times I left for the library.

Should I try an earlier version on this laptop?

No, more likely you have a hardware weakness.
You can get a Wi-Fi USB dongle in some stores  under $15.
Or buy on at Amazon for under $9 with free shipping.

Google USB Wi-Fi adapter

Disable the laptop wi-fi and let Windows install the new device.

Thanks - - you're the best. I was thinking exorcism but you have the better idea.

Never ever let Windows install drivers...Get them from the laptop manuf. site only...
Re-boot after install.
