    It could be any of those things, I suppose. It's hard to tell without more information. As far as the WiFi's concerned, I'd say use a different device on it as a test. If it disconnects for stuff other than your laptop, it's the router. If not, the laptop's the cause.

    Which OS are you running? There might be built-in processes you can use to test the problem.

    Have you tried to update your drivers? Search up Driver Booster by ioBit. You can either purchase it only or google around for their license keys.

    Testing it this way is good advice. It is better to isolate the problem like than to install a third party driver updater as others have suggested. If you choose to go the driver route get the driver update directly from the manufacturer.

    I had an HP laptop with the same problem you're having. It just disconnected at random times for no reason apparently. I then discovered that the wifi the laptop had was just faulty.

    Just to make sure. Try opening up the command prompt from your laptop, and try to ping a website - like Google - repeatedly.
    For example, try this "ping www.google.com -t".
    After that, check the time it takes every time it tries to connect. If, say, it repeatedly connects in 10ms but it then suddenly goes to 1000ms or a similar high number, then it means that your wifi device is as faulty as mine was.

    I tried a lot of solutions I've found on the internet, but it just kept doing this problem so I just gave up. My solution was to buy an external wifi device and to use that instead, it's like 10€ or something so it's not like you are replacing something expensive.
