Hey Tech people! I am having some issues with my wifi. While connected to my 5Ghz band, it will periodically drop connection. I figured this was a bad Wifi card, but it is not, as my new wifi card I just purchased has the same problem, yet a touch different. On my old card:
  • It randomly claims my 5G connection has no internet.
  • Connecting to my 2.4 band and reconnecting to my 5g brings the internet back.
On my new card:
  • It straight up disconnects from the 5G network
  • Reconnecting right away gives me a "Can not connect" message. After some time I can reconnect.
  • I can still connect to my 2.4 band.
In both cases 5G wifi does not drop from my other devices, and also the connection signal is great, so that isolates it to my computer (I believe).
I have tried:
  • Deleting and redownloading Wifi drivers,
  • resetting network through command prompt,
  • Going through device manager and forcing some settings (roaming aggressiveness to low, 801.11 force to AC from AX)
  • Connecting the card to a different PCIE port.
I have not yet tried anything through bios, as I do not know if that could be a thing that could help.
Specs -
Windows Version 10.0.18363 Build 18363
MB- Gigabyte X470 Aorus Ultra Gaming
Bios- 3.2
32 gigs ram
Ryzen 2700x
RTX 3070
1 500g sata SSD boot
1 1Tb sata ssd games drive
1 3TB HDD Storage
1 4Tb HDD Work drive
850w Gold PSU

I have loaded a Wlan report. As I said, it only DC's on the 5G channel. I would attach it here, but I cant figure out how to attach things. The things I notice are the notes that say:

ActiveHttpProbeSucceeded
CapabilityReset
The network is disconnected by the driver
and SuspectArpProbeFailed

Any ideas?

Thanks for the reply! Home environment. I am using channel 11 for 2.4, and 52 for 5. I have already optimized the channel usage as well ! Thanks for the suggestion though! I also do not think it could be a network issue, as all my other devices have no issues with the 5g band.
