Hello everybody.
I have 1 month old build with integrated wi-fi and the following parts:

cpu: intel i7 7700k
mobo: asus rog strix Z270G
ram: corsair 16gb ddr4 3000mhz
ssd: samsung 750 evo
psu: evga supernova 650w G3
os: windows 10 64 bit
wi-fi: Qualcomm Atheros QCA61x4A Wireless Network Adapter

I don't have a GPU or access to wired internet. The problem is that in the last 2 weeks my wi-fi keep disconnecting every couple of hours regardless of what I'm doing on the pc. I think it says "No internet. Secured". In order to use the internet again, I just have to go to windows settings, disconnect and reconnect and it comes back on. I could be playing overwatch, I could be browsing the internet, doesn't matter, it keeps doing it. I've tried these but nothing worked:

- update bios to latest version
- update absolutely all drivers, especially the wifi drivers
- disable any power saving modes throughout the entire system
 
I always use this method to zero in on "out of date" drivers. A program called Drive Booster (or something like that) by iobit. downloads and installs all out of date drivers. If that doesn't work, get a usb drive wifi adapter and see if it works. If it does, your internal wifi adapter is shot.
