Wi-Fi disconnects repeatedly on the ASUS ProArt P16. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 model ships with a MediaTek Wi-Fi 6E adapter that is sensitive to power management and roaming settings. The connection drops briefly and reconnects, interrupting video calls and large file transfers.
Update MediaTek Wi-Fi Driver Do first
Go to ASUS Support for ProArt P16. Download the latest Wi-Fi driver (MediaTek or Wireless LAN category). Uninstall the existing wireless adapter in Device Manager and install the downloaded version. Restart and reconnect.
Disable Wi-Fi Power Management
Device Manager → Network adapters → right-click the MediaTek Wi-Fi adapter → Properties → Power Management. Uncheck “Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.” Also in the Advanced tab, set Power Saving Mode to Maximum Performance.
Reduce Roaming Aggressiveness
Device Manager → MediaTek Wi-Fi adapter → Properties → Advanced tab. Find Roaming Aggressiveness and set it to Lowest. This stops the adapter from dropping the current connection to hunt for a marginally stronger signal.
“Setting the roaming aggressiveness to Lowest and disabling power saving fixed the Wi-Fi drops on my ProArt P16 immediately.” — Hazwan, Putrajaya
