[SOLVED] Realtek 8812BU (and others) dropping wifi constantly in Win10. Drivers Updated and Power Options at Full.

Hi all. I have been swapping between 3 wireless adapters, the Realtek 8812BU being the newest and fastest. I uninstalled all old network adapters and have reinstalled this and updated numerous times. I have followed multiple tutorials suggesting editing power options to have no effect on wireless adapters as well as highest performance modes for my Win 10 PC. This wifi droppage started some 2 weeks ago and has been too frequent. I have even reset network/firewall settings. On top of that, my ps4,switch, and iphone work 100% fine with the wifi in the same room as the PC acting up. I am totally lost and would greatly appreciate the help. Thank you kindly!

Is that a USB 2 adapter? that realtek chipset hasn't had any new drivers for 3 years now, I have seen a number of people having problems with adapters based on that chip with Win 10.

It could be time to get a USB 3 adapter, maybe one that doesn't support XP as I feel that is a sign its getting too old.
