    Is the connection with the router that drops only on your pc, or is it the whole router going down? You can check this by having your phone connected to the wifi, without 4G/5G data enabled, while your pc is running updates. Try browsing the internet on your phone while the updates are running and see if the pages load. If your phone loses internet at that point too, then your router actually crashes and likely has a problem. Not much to do here except changing the router.

    If it’s just the wifi of your pc that drops the connection it might be that the wireless card has some compatibility issues (I have an old macbook air with the same problem - I workarounded it by buying a USB wifi adapter…).

        Then you might be hitting some bugs in the router, and there’s not much to do :/

        It seems strange that it only happens when you run the updates, but I did see some cheap routers randomly restarting before when under heavy load, so it’s not impossible. You should have been hitting the same problem with other downloads or steam though.

        I’m unsure on what it could be, ans I don’t have many other suggestions other than “try a new router”, unfortunately :(
