The internet connection on my laptop keeps dropping, connected via Wi-Fi
how do I fix this?
Very simple:
First, figure out who's to blame:
1. The transceiver in the laptop itself - move it closer to the router, simply change the router's location, if it changed: then the fault is - low signal power
or the transmitter on the router (try another router)
or the receiver on the laptop (try another laptop)
or too many signal reflections from walls, and the signal is either distorted or there is another source of signal occupying a close or the same frequency as yours..
(reduce the distance between the router and the laptop, remove obstacles, change the frequency)
(In the 2.4 GHz band, many devices operate, such as Bluetooth-enabled devices, etc, and even microwave ovens, which degrades electromagnetic compatibility
The number of simultaneously-observable Wi-Fi networks at one point cannot be greater than the number of channels used, that is 13 channels/networks.)
SECOND - solve the problem
after you've found the cause, if the fault is not in the router and not in the laptop, then
-check the antenna connection in the router, and the antenna must be positioned horizontally!!
- if there is no way to relocate the router, and if you agree to additional radiation, then buy a signal-boosting antenna with a cable and install it in the needed location
- if your laptop supports not only 802.11g or 802.11a, but also the 802.11n standard, then when using a special router with 2, 3 or even 4 antennas it allows transmitting and receiving simultaneously on several bands, which can increase not only the range but also significantly the data transfer speed, up to 600 Mbps, or up to 1.3 Gbps for the 802.11ac standard.
write in, whoever has solved the problem of poor connection!
Okay, if I install a booster antenna, will it be harmful to my health? and won't there be problems with the law from the frequency regulatory authority? or is it better to run a cable?
and in general what are the pros and cons between wifi and cable internet access?

if you are the owner of your apartment in every sense, then it's better to run a cable - access speed, reliability, will be higher.
true, there is a chance of damaging the cable, and the connectors,
if you're not scared of the harm, even if it's minimal, of electromagnetic radiation, then install a router with a booster antenna
