If your laptop won’t connect reliably to your WiFi router despite a good signal, it may be beause of an incompatibility between your router and the WiFi card in your laptop. An easy solution is to replace the WiFi card in your laptop with one of a different make or model. They are a standard item, and if you find one the same size and with the same kind of connectors and screw holes then it’s almost certain that it’ll work and Windows will recognise it.
