If every device drops, focus on the router or provider; if only one drops, focus on that device.

  1. Note whether the problem affects one device or all of them.
  2. Restart the affected device and router.
  3. Forget and rejoin the network on one device.
  4. Check for router updates or a provider outage.
Good to know: Write down any custom router settings before resetting the router.
