I understand a bit about computers, enough to assemble one. However, my current setup has been running for 2 to 3 years, and recently over the past few months, my WiFi keeps disconnecting. I have to restart it repeatedly to get back online, and the network adapter resets itself constantly. The issue happens unpredictably—sometimes it works for a couple of days or a week, then it drops again. I’m unsure whether to replace the motherboard or install a PCIe Wi-Fi card. The drivers are all up to date, but I’m not sure anymore.

Edit:
When this occurs, my phone, tablet, TV, and any other devices using WiFi remain unaffected. Therefore, I don’t think it’s related to my modem. It seems the problem is with my PC itself.

Check the Reliability History and Event Viewer for any error messages, alerts, or data events around the times Wifi drops.
Also:
Refresh your post with complete hardware details and operating system info.
Please note the PSU specifications: make, model, wattage, age, condition (original, used, refurbished)?
Specify the disk drive(s): brand, model, capacity, current usage?
List all connected peripherals.
Execute "ipconfig /all" through the Command Prompt and share the output.

Verify that all antenna connections are secure and that the antenna is positioned in an area where it receives a strong signal.

I have set up the two antennas as requested. The larger, flatter sides are oriented toward the modem area. They are positioned snugly without being overly tight.

The wifi chipset is Realtek Wi-Fi 6E RTL8852CE.
Some user opinions:
Realtek Wi-Fi Cards are generally poor quality.
From my HP ProBook 440 G7 to my G8 and now my brand new Lenovo E14 Gen6 21M3, all of these devices came with Realtek cards, but they all seem to be of low standard (think more harsh description).
The newly purchased Lenovo ThinkPad E14 (21M3) includes a fresh Realtek 6e Wi-Fi module; I thought I'd avoided the disappointing performance...

Of course, some users can't speak for everyone. It's up to you.

There is one antenna designed for 2.4GHz and another for 5GHz.
