If the Wi-Fi disconnection issue on your Windows 11 laptop is recurring, the simplest solution is to turn Airplane Mode on and off.

Step 2.  Then, turn this mode off and check if the Wi-Fi is still disconnecting.

Forget and reconnect to the Wi-Fi network.

Step 1. Press the Windows + A  shortcut key   to open Action Center. Here, click the arrow next to the Wi-Fi icon.

Step 2.  Here, right-click on the Wi-Fi network and select  Forget . This will disconnect your Windows 11 laptop from that Wi-Fi network and also unsave the Wi-Fi password.

Step 3.  After a minute or two, reconnect to the Wi-Fi network and enter the correct password. Then, check if the Wi-Fi connection continues to disconnect.

Enable the automatic connection feature to Wi-Fi networks.

Even if your Wi-Fi network is within range, your Windows 11 laptop may not connect because the automatic connection feature is turned off. To allow your computer to automatically connect to Wi-Fi networks, follow these steps:

Step 1. Press the Windows + A  shortcut key   to open Action Center. Here, click the arrow next to the Wi-Fi icon.

Step 2.  Now, right-click on the network and select  Properties . This will open the Wi-Fi properties in the Windows 11 Settings app.

Step 3.  In the Wi-Fi network settings page, check the box next to "  Connect automatically when in range" . Then, check again to see if the Wi-Fi connection is still being interrupted.

Update your Wi-Fi driver.

If none of the above methods resolve the issue, the next thing you need to do is update your Wi-Fi driver. It's highly likely that the Wi-Fi connection is disconnecting because your Windows 11 laptop is using an outdated driver. Here's how to update your Wi-Fi driver:

Step 1. Press the Windows + X  shortcut key   to open the Quick Menu. From there, open  Device Manager .

Step 2.  Click the arrow next to  Network adapters  to expand the network drivers, and you will find your laptop's Wi-Fi driver. The driver name will depend on the model you are using. Click on the driver and select  Update driver .

Step 3.  On the driver update window, select "  Search automatically for drivers"  to allow Windows 11 to automatically search for the most suitable drivers for your laptop.

Restart your Wi-Fi router.

Wi-Fi routers can also malfunction if they haven't been used for a long time. Therefore, if you're experiencing Wi-Fi disconnections on your Windows 11 laptop, you should also try turning off your Wi-Fi router and turning it back on after a few minutes. Then, reconnect to the network and check if the problem persists.
