    Try update the wifi drivers, if that fails roll back the drivers to the previous version.

    Also, make sure Windows 10 itself is up to date.

    Is this a dell laptop by any change? My brother had the same problem with a dell. I forced windows 10 to use an older windows 7 driver, this sorted the problem.

    I have had that issue in windows 8 and 10 in 4 devices. Never could figure out why its not just WIFI if you have any Bluetooth devices they disconnect too.

    Because both bluetooth and wifi run from the same internal card on most laptops.
