try to reset the WiFi adapter and reconfigure as
limit it to 11-20 mbps
range must be 20 meters..
and the must important thing to avoid interference with other wifi devices and radio signals reduce it to 4 or 5
set up a strong password and done..
enjoy unlimited internet connection without dropping it again and again and again ...

If it happens on all the networks that you connect, I would look at computers' WIFI adapter. If not probably troubleshoot from AP/Wireless Router point of view for distance, band, & interference.

Wifi is not perfect. Depending on where you are sitting, where the wifi router is located, what is in between these 2 points, what is near the router, even the angle of your laptop screen ( that's where your wifi antenna is at) is at, all can affect wifi reception. Even other wifi networks can be the cause. Are you connecting to a 2.4Ghz channel or a 5Ghz? the 2.4 Ghz frequency is also used with cordless phones
