    I have been having issues with my internet lately to where it would disconnect from the WIFI by itself almost as if the router shut off. That is not the case luckily. I believe it may be my adapter. Any Suggestions??

    This has happened to me many times before. Normally it was my computer doing something though, the way i fixed it was with disabling my wifi and then enabling it again.

    That Normally Works, but do you think there may be a permanent solution?

    It fixed for me immediately when i connected to Ethernet instead. Which is just an internett cable.

    I live in a ancient temple haha. Do you think one of those wifi things that use your power as ethernet would work?

    It could be your pc's adapter configuration. I still have that problem with my laptop, every 2 mins it disconnects from the wifi. However, later on I realized that it didn't happen with other wifi networks I connected to therefore it could be your router

    Hi there. I think I might have a solution for you as well. I have had a similar issue for like 6 month until I tried this. My router is on the 2nd floor and my pc at the bottom, using a wireless adaptor ofcourse. What I did was I changed my wireless channel of my router to either channel 6 or channel 11. What this does is, it changes the frequency of your wifi connection to a different one and does not cause any "crosstalk" with other wireless connections. Hope this works.
