Why does it drop internet connection to my laptop only. I basically have to forget the network and start all over. it is updated to the newest firmware and all.

    But is your laptops driver? 

    Many people leave their laptop drivers for windows update and they tend to be pretty far out of date. 

    Check out what wireless chip is in your laptop. Then go directly to that manufacturer's website and update it directly from them and not through windows update or whoever makes the laptop.
