Mediatek MT7630E 802.11bgn Wi-Fi Adapter Problem

Mediatek MT7630E 802.11bgn Wi-Fi Adapter connection drops!

 This wifi network adapter has been used in some laptops like Asus x552 series or HP, there is a problem with connectivity to wifi modem or CPE , this problem is related to driver and need BIOS update and in some series it needs to reinstall OS, unfortunately at the moment there is no driver fix for problem and it’s interesting that manufacturers don’t mention it and leave consumers alone .
- No thanks to the horrible support for this wifi adapter.
 there are some asus recommendations  that don't change anything as we know:


Troubleshooting :
Wireless connection unstable and automatically disconnected problem


Solution
Please try the following steps:
1. Please check the maximum wireless range of your router, don't place your router in a corner or close to metal objects and other electronics in your home.

2. Please enter your router settings, try setting it to a different channel. Channels 1, 6, and 11 are recommended.

3. If the computer connects to Internet via PPPoE, please check your router settings for the auto-disconnect function, and please contact your ISP to check the network environment.

4. Disable your security software and firewall temporarily to see if the problem remains.

5. Disable the power saving feature of the wireless adapter: right click on Computer, select Properties, enter Device Manager.
