Your Chromebook WiFi keeps disconnecting
Restart your Chromebook first. Then forget the WiFi network and reconnect to it. Most WiFi drops happen because of weak signal — try moving closer to the router.
WiFi dropping happens because of weak signal, corrupted WiFi settings, or the router needs a restart. Forgetting the WiFi and reconnecting fixes most problems. You can also move closer to the router to see if it's just a signal issue.

Skip — I just want a technicianCommon mistakes to avoid
- Assuming the Chromebook is broken when it can just be weak signal — move closer to the router first
- Restarting the Chromebook repeatedly instead of the router — the router is the problem
- Not checking if other devices work fine — that's the quickest way to know if it's your device or your router
Signs you need professional help
- If all your devices drop WiFi — call your internet company to check for network problems
- If only your Chromebook drops WiFi despite other devices working fine and you've tried everything — the WiFi hardware can be failing
