Hi @Syburr,
Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Thanks for reaching out!
We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.
If your Victus by HP 15-fb3000 laptop is dropping Wi-Fi randomly, it’s usually caused by either outdated drivers, power-saving settings, or router compatibility issues. Let’s try a few steps to fix this:
Update Wireless Driver
Go to HP Support → enter your laptop’s model → download and install the latest Realtek/Intel wireless LAN driver for Windows 10.
Update BIOS
From the same HP Support page, check if there’s a BIOS update. Outdated BIOS can cause connectivity drops.
Change Power Settings
Press Win + X → Device Manager → expand Network Adapters → right-click your Wi-Fi adapter → Properties → Power Management tab → uncheck “Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.”
Also, in Control Panel > Power Options, set Wireless Adapter to Maximum Performance
.
Forget & Reconnect Wi-Fi
Go to Settings > Network & Internet > Wi-Fi, forget the network, restart the laptop, then reconnect.
Router Check
Restart your router.
If possible, test on both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands to see if one is more stable.
HP Network Check
Open HP Support Assistant → run Network and Internet Troubleshooter.
I hope this helps.
I'm glad I could help! 😊 If this resolved your issue, please mark it as "Accepted Solution" and click "Yes" on "Was this reply helpful?" Your feedback not only keeps us going but also helps others find the solution faster! 👍✨
