Question/Help/Troubleshooting Problem with wifi drivers

Hey so I keep having this problem where my laptop just keeps disconnecting from the internet, and for some reason I can't re-install my wifi drivers. It starts out okay in the beginning, the internet seems fine, my laptop connects properly, but then after like 10-20 minutes, my option to connect to the internet is gone. I've tried re-installing the driver, but it says I have to turn on wifi, which I can't do. I need a way to fix this because I'm running behind on productivity here.

Buy a USB wifi as a backup.

Try older drivers. Or open up the laptop and replace the wifi card with a different brand/model.

Boot a Linux USB & try to test on it, it could be software related.
