Okay so I recently moved into an apartment like setting where aprox. 8 devices are connected to the wifi. Most being phones; excluding the two laptops and one ps4. The problem I'm getting is i'll lose connection to the internet, but no yellow triangle error appears in on the wifi logo in the bottom right corner. I seem to be the only device on the network experiencing this problem. If i disconnect myself and reconnect myself then i'm good for anywhere from 30 seconds to 5 minutes. I tried messing around with some settings within my router but nothing seems to work. I even tried kicking every device off except for me and I still get kicked off. Please help, i'm just trying to do some light gaming :/
It seems to have excellent connection when I am connected, downloaded a game and was getting 10mbps

I have comcast internet with the following router;
Model: DPC3939B
Vendor: Cisco
Hardware Revision: 1.0
Processor Speed: 447.28 MHz
DRAM: 524288 MB
Flash: 128 MB

Here's some logs that I found in the router

So to get things clear when you disconnect from the internet you don't disconnect from he router the process is like this

you are connected to a router and your router is connected to the internet
when the router lose the connection with the internet you are still connected to the router


So I think that your laptop might be the problem not the router

I would suggest you do the following

uninstall and reinstall your router driver on this laptop
test this problem and see if it still happens while using a wired connection
if it still occurs then the problem is with the router but if it stopped then the problem is with your laptop's wireless transmitter
 
That's an older laptop, issue could be the wifi adapter and compatibility with the router. Check for updated drivers for laptop wireless and chipset, check for updated firmware on router. If that does not help, try getting a newer USB wifi adapter and use that on the laptop.

I have had similar wireless issues, along with poor streaming, I'd get random disconnects where a few computers and one iPad would no longer get an IP from the router. Had to update the firmware to a 3rd party one and also get a newer wireless adapter for a computer to get things stable.
