HP Pavillion laptop poor wifi connection

[JCB25]

I've had my laptop for 4 months. The connection to our home broadband is very intermittent. Other devices are connected with no problems- just seems to be my HP laptop. Video conferencing is very unstable- I often have the message that I have unstable connection but this never happens with other devices. Even when in same room as router- the connection can vary between 0.5Mbps to 40Mbps (this is still lower than I receive on other devices- >100Mbps).

Please let me know what I can do, as it is very frustrating!!

Thank you for posting on HP Support Community.
 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, I have a few troubleshooting steps we could try to fix the issue:  

Firstly, perform Windows Update and HP Support Assistant: (do not skip any troubleshooting steps if you feel steps are repeating) 

To check for updates now, select the Start button, and then go to Settings  > Update & security  > Windows Update, and select Check for updates.

Install updates from HP Support Assistant: Go to Download HP Support Assistant to install the tool.

1. To open HP Support Assistant, double-click the HP Support Assistant icon .
2. Click My devices in the top menu, and then click Updates in the My PC or My notebook pane.
3. Click Check for updates and messages to scan for new updates.
4. Review the list of updates. Updates with a yellow information icon are recommended. Updates with a blue information icon are optional.
5. Click the update name for a description, version number, and file size.
6. Select the box next to any updates you want to install, and then click Download and install.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
