Possibly your Wi-Fi device is not waking up properly when the computer wakes up from sleep or hibernation.

The Wi-Fi device may have a Power Management feature as shown below. If you un-check the box "Allow the computer.." then the Wi-Fi device will be enabled during sleep and will not have to be woken up when the computer resumes from sleep. Laptops in modern standby will be missing the following option.

Uncheck the above box.

 

If there is no option to prevent turnoff then disable sleep on your laptop.

 

 

Possibly an update Wi-Fi driver might help. If your system is really old you may need to replace the  WI-Fi board.
