The solutions listed below reveal how to stabilize your Internet connection and fix this issue. There are solutions for computers running on Windows (Dell, Acer, Asus, Lenovo, and more), and Mac (iMac, MacBook, Mac), as well as smartphones and tablets running on Android (Samsung, Huawei, Xiaomi, OnePlus), and iOS (iPhone, iPad, iPod touch).
Check the solutions out, and follow the instructions carefully.
Taking your device to a repair shop is recommended if none of the other solutions worked, because a hardware defect may be the reason for the instability of your Internet connection. They will test your device, identify the cause and fix your device, if possible.
If none of the other solutions worked, consider replacing your router, as it may have malfunctioned or its Wi-Fi capabilities have weakened. When purchasing a new one, ensure that it would be a strong one and that it could spread the Wi-Fi signal seamlessly throughout your home.
It is possible that certain router settings cause the internet connection to drop. Also, it is possible that the router wasn't configured properly in the first place. What you may consider doing in this case is to reset your router to its factory settings.
The procedure of resetting the router settings can vary from one router to another, which is why you need to go through the router's manual on how to do it on your router. On most routers, there is a small reset button usually located near the Ethernet ports and the ON/OFF switch and pressing that button would require using a toothpick.
Note: Before resetting the router, make sure to write down credentials (username and password) to access your Internet connection, if such.
