Repeatedly losing internet access - no Wi-Fi networks found

[prophet01]

Recently the old work ThinkPad I use to surf the internet repeatedly loses web connectivity and I have to click Troubleshoot problems.

The diagnoser runs through its routine and inevetably ends up re-setting the network "Wi-Fi " adapter. Finishing on the below screen.

 

 

Then, after sometime only a few seconds seconds connection is lost again and I have to repeat the troubleshooter almost in a constant loop.

 

Any ideas on resolving would be most appreciated.

Move it to different  geographical locations  If the problem  persists buy a new  device  or take it to  be repaired.

Exact device model number and OS installed?

 

First thing to do is to make sure you have the correct Driver installed.

Try connecting directly to your router via a CAT cable in order to eliminate the WiFi Adapter in your PC.

If the installed driver was working OK a while back, why would it stop working?

Could have been updated. Though there are quite a few possibilities.

So you are saying that the updated driver could be the problem? What are those possibilities please?
