A few minutes after startup, my laptop seems to lose the ability to find wifi signals. On startup, it will show many networks, including mine, which it connects to automatically (I live in an apartment building). After anywhere from 3 minutes to a couple hours though, it will disconnect from the internet. When I look at the network list again, the only one I will see is mind, and when i disconnect from it, it disappears too. I have updated my drivers through the device manager. I'm using an ethernet cable for now, but that will become impractical soon. Any advice appreciated!
