    hi guys



    im getting a lot of disconenct those days. It started this week, after i updated some drivers from Dell (like chipset).



    Im getting a lot of DCs - a yellow flag appears at my wifi icon and i lost connection. I tested another notebook here at home, besides me, and when i lost wifi at AW, the other laptop was fine, so it isnt a problem at router/modem.

    i have a dlink dir-655

    Does anyone knows how can solve this? thanks

    As per @judal57 Go to device manager -> Right click on your Wifi adapter and set roaming aggressiveness to lowest. If you are using 2.4G band set preferred band to 2.4G and hit OK.
