I put my laptop on a wireless hotspot from my phone and I didn't notice any troubles, although my ping was abnormally high.
I don't have this issue with any other devices, just my laptop, what's the problem? I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers and Killer Control Center, disabling it, all that, nothing seems to help this problem. I ran a test to see what the problem may be, I moved my laptop the right next to the router and I didn't drop or anything, it was just fine. It'll work fine and fast for me but once I load up a game (I use Rainbow Six Siege as a test because it has the most problems) it'll work for about 15 minutes and then I'll get kicked from the game, my internet will die for about 5 minutes, then out of nowhere it'll just come back. After Christmas my internet has legit just died on me any time I try to play a game. I factory reset the router and that actually fixed it. It did the same things as before, it would work fine for a while, then drop. I started having problems with the router once I got back. Now I'm back home for the holidays and back on my home Wifi again. But Xfinity fixed the drivers and I never had a problem with it since. There was a point I was installing a new router in my barracks, the routers drivers were out of date, so whenever I put a large load on it, it would drop me like this does. After updating the drivers and leaving home for a while (I'm in the Navy, so that's to be expected) I didn't have any problems with it for a long while. I'd have to disconnect and reconnect to the wifi to get it back. Whenever my usage would get to a certain point, it would drop me. I have an Alienware 17 R4 with a Killer Wireless AC 1535 card in it.
