My wifi keeps dropping and then reconnects. The light stays white on the router when this happens. Can you turn off wifi optimization as have seen on here that has fixed the issue for some. Router is a sagecom fast 5464-2.t4. It has been rebooted and factory reset.

Hi @Judyaughton
@Gliwmaeden2 has asked me to help you which will be a pleasure.
Slow speed, intermittent dropouts, breaks in the signal or no signal on some or all devices or no internet access might be caused by Wi-Fi interference from other local networks, which can also lead to a permanent reduction in speed. No ISP can be responsible for your local environment, this is mainly a byproduct of the popularity of Wi-Fi.
Generally speaking, the 2.4GHz band suffers a lot more from interference than the much faster 5GHz band, but the 2.4GHz one can sometimes have a better range, but this all depends on your local area.
In other words, I try to help you optimise your Wi-Fi connection. The next stage involves sending out a guide to you to help you get me some important diagnostic results so that I can analyse them for you and recommend changes to your router configuration to solve them.
I only send this out to people who request it.

It's not possible to switch off WiFi optimisation these days, @Judyaughton - a business decision.
@KeithFrench may be able to advise you.
