Inspiron 3650 loses internet connection randomly.

Called Dell tech support, useless.

windows 10, Inspiron 3650 loses internet connection intermittently, still connected to wifi.  When I re-boot wi-fi is connected and internet connection works again for a while.

Using Dell 1707 Wireless card 802.11b/g/n.

Driver 10.0.0.341

Ideas?

Thanx, Lance

    Do other computers using WiFi have the same issues? Did you remove all checks from the 1707 power management tab in the Device Manager? See mine below =

    Four other devices continue to work fine, connecting and staying connected to internet/wi-fi.  

    The Dell issue started about 10 days ago, had worked fine for about 3 months (not lost internet connection).

    Yes, have same checks as yours in Power management.

    * And what 1707 wifi driver were you using prior to 10 days ago?

    Yes, have same checks as yours in Power management.
    As in you removed all checks?

    I'm assuming the same... it was dated mid-2016 if I recall correctly.  

    Any way to check the "history" of which driver was running at a specific time?

    You will have to check the Windows Updates history to see if it installed a WiFi driver.
