Why does my WiFi go off at night?
Evening Habits. The distance of your computer from the wireless router affects the way the signal behaves; the farther you get, the lower the signal. If you move too far away, the signal can disappear. When your signal drops out at night, it may be due to your standard evening habits.
Why is my WiFi dropping out all the time?
Your internet keeps cutting out for a number of reasons. Your router may be out of date, you may have too many wireless devices crowding your network, cabling may be faulty, or there may be traffic jams between you and the services that you use. Some slowdowns are out of your control while others are easily fixed.

How can I restore my lost WiFi connection?
This is a simple triage approach to restoring a lost WiFi connection. That means the most likely, easy to fix solutions will be presented first. What you see in the photo is not what you want to see.
What happens when your WiFi signal is restored?
Most of the time your WiFi signal will be restored and ready to use. Routers overheat, or they become “confused” and just need to clear their minds. (That is not a technical explanation, but it is about what I understand and it makes a simple way to explain the problem to others you may be trying to help.)
What to do if your WiFi signal is overheated?
Whether your signal comes through the air or over a cable, perhaps with your TV signal, a modem can also become overheated or “confused” just like a router, especially if direct sunlight falls on it. Try shutting the modem down for a minute and then restarting it. Give the modem time to find and process the signal.
Why does my computer not have a WiFi connection?
If a USB hub shuts down because of a static discharge the computer cannot get the WiFi signal from the dongle plugged into the hub. (Disconnect all cables from the USB hub and wait a couple of minutes for the static charge to dissipate. Then attach the cables again.)
