Why Does My PC Keep Losing WiFi While Using Certain Apps?

Asked By TechieTommy42 On

I've been experiencing an issue where my PC disconnects from WiFi intermittently while I'm browsing online. It shows a message saying "you seem to be offline," but oddly enough, any videos I'm playing in the background, like on YouTube, continue to play without a hitch. I've already updated the drivers and even uninstalled and reinstalled the network adapter, but the problem is still there. Anyone know what might be going on?

This issue started for me a few weeks back too, and I found that adjusting the video resolution on YouTube doesn't help at all. It's strange to get that offline message while the video keeps playing fine. I noticed it happens mostly on desktop, but my mobile seems to be just fine.

It sounds like you could be maxing out your WiFi bandwidth, which may cause packet loss. Have you tried lowering the playback quality of your YouTube videos to see if it makes a difference? Sometimes the bandwidth demand from multiple services can cause hiccups like that.
