Wifi disconnects randomly after 30-45 mins of usage

[blurrydev]

Hi. It's been 7 months since I bought my laptop and for the initial 2 months it was working great but then I started getting a problem where my laptop automatically disconnects from WIfi and fails to identify any available wifi networks. This does not happen every day but it happens often and randomly.

When this happens, I have to uninstall the Wifi driver and scan for hardware changes to get it back to identifying the existing Wifi networks and connect. Although this seems to be working but it's a real pain to do this 2-3 times a day. So, I'm looking for a permanent or at least a long-term fix.

PS: I have tried everything I found on internet in last 5 months starting from running troubleshooting to updating all my drivers, windows, BIOS etc
