Hi, I see you're experiencing some issues with your devices connected to Wi-Fi. Your Lenovo IdeaPad 5 is acting strange—sometimes it disconnects from the network, shows as having a signal but no internet, and when it reconnects it reports slow speeds. You mentioned the laptop has 8GB RAM and 4500u processors, which is decent, but the other laptop works fine. You've tried updating drivers, doing a Windows update, restarting, and running a virus scan. No viruses found. It seems like the problem might be specific to your Lenovo model or settings. Have you checked if any firmware updates are available for your device? Also, consider checking for background apps or services that could interfere with Wi-Fi performance.

You could start by connecting through a LAN cable. If the problem persists, it likely points to a software issue. Then move close to your Wi-Fi signal and check if the problem continues; if it does, interference is probably the cause.

Based on Microsoft's offerings, I'll verify the latest drivers. Also reviewing Lenovo's website for updates and checking the WiFi chipset details, which you can cross-reference with the vendor for current driver support. Many devices use chipsets like Realtek or Intel, and these manufacturers often release updated drivers.

It seems most chipset suppliers release updated drivers regularly.
