All virtual assistant suggestions don't work and are wrong.  I frequent lose connection to the internet, trouble shooter needs to be run and adapter get reset.  The problem is with this computer, not the modem.  I have gone back to my old laptop and I don't experience to problem.   I have posted this problem in the past and tried suggestions without success.

@Denniz Did you try reinstalling the wireless adapter? (please do, if you haven't)

 

While you respond to that, here's what you need to do:

  1. Remove All Barriers: Certain building materials can get in the way of weaker signals like Bluetooth. Metal, bulletproof glass, concrete and plaster are particularly bad, and marble, plaster and brick aren’t great easy. So if you’re really struggling with interference, your first step should be to move your Bluetooth devices away from these materials. That means no brick walls between you and your devices, and definitely no metal desks!
     
  2. Change Router Channel: If you have an Apple router and you’re constantly getting interference with your WiFi, try rebooting it. Upon restart, the station will search for a new channel. Specifically, a different channel than the one your Bluetooth devices are using to communicate. If you don’t have an Apple router, you may need to instead go into your router settings and try changing the channel manually. Experiment with different channels to see which one works best.
     
  3. Move Closer to Your Router: If you often find that you’re getting interference when talking on a wireless headset while on a WiFi call (you’ll know because you’ll hear static), try moving closer to your router. This will give you a more robust WiFi connection, so the Bluetooth frequency can’t overpower it.
     
  4. Get Away From Microwaves and Fluorescent Lighting: Both emit frequencies of 2.4GHz, and moving away from them will distance you from the source.

That said, The best way to resolve the issue is by using the HP Guided Troubleshooter:

None of it works.  It's an internal problem of the adapter or, I believe the adapter Windows/HP interaction.  My problem machine dropped the signal 6 times in 40 minutes today while a separate machine never had a problem.  I have been through the diagnostics, the BIOS reload, uninstalled and reinstalled the adapter, all of it.  I have come to the conclusion I have a HP lemon. Hopefully a Windows update will cure it someday.  HP seems clueless.

.  How can I return my machine directly to HP?

@Denniz I understand your concern and I will bring your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP.

Although, I'll need some private information from you in order to create a case for you.

 

Please look for a private message requesting additional information. 

Keep in mind not to publicly post personal information (serial numbers, case details, etc...).
