Wifi disconnecting at regular intervals of time

[PSriv7]

my network adapter is intel dual band ac 3160. As I connect to wifi it remains connected for some time then it automatically disconnects and shows no wifi networks available. Then I reset my network adapter then again it shows nearby wifi networks as soon as I connect to the network after some time it again disconnects. My drivers are upto date and I have tried almost every method to resolve this problem but none of them worked.

Now I came to know that 3160 is outdated and no more updates and service will be provided you so what to do now?

Attached file is wlan report. I hope you will examine and give me best solution

My laptop is dell inspiron 5559, 8gb RAM, i5 6th gen. Network adapter is intel dual band wireless ac-3160. After new windows update i am experiencing this problem more frequently.

Driver version in the new update was 18.33.0.1 but i thought if new update is creating the problem then i roll back my driver to 17.15.0.5 still the problem was not solved. Only my laptop is experiencing this problem on the same network. Yes adapter came preinstalled in my pc.
