Constantly losing internet connection WGR614

Hello, im using WGR614 Netgear WiFi router and im constantly losing internet connection but only on my laptop, connection on the phone is constant. So here is my question: what can cause that problem? On my laptop i can see that the router has old security setting, it might be it? Thanks for answers.

MIght be because that router is a 19 year old device (produced in 2003) and only old wireless g technology.

It might be time to upgrade to something from this decade
