Hey everyone, I’m trying to figure out what’s going on with my Wi-Fi and internet connection. It mostly happens when I’m using a VPN on my laptop, especially with Surfshark. I usually get a stable connection for about 10 minutes, but then it drops right after I start browsing or streaming. The worst part is when I’m watching YouTube or just browsing—sometimes it reconnects quickly, other times it completely disconnects. It seems to happen more often when the battery is low and less so when it’s charged. This issue started a few days ago after a power outage; I turned off my device and waited for power to come back before restarting. Everything worked fine before that. Since this feels pretty specific, I’m hoping someone can help me out with this unusual situation.
