wifi connection issue on raspberry pi 4 2gb model

Post by cbsun6 »

I purchased the raspberry pi 4 2gb model b on June 21, 2021. having difficulties with the wifi connection where it keeps dropping even though it says it has full bars on the screen
I have tried updating the software tried booting it off of multiple different OSes through pi imager and it always drops the internet connection for 5 to 30 seconds at a time I tested it using ethernet and it worked fine but the ethernet is in a inconvenient spot and i would like to be able to move my pi around without having to plug into ethernet do you have any suggestions on what I can do to make the wifi stable and get it working? If not, could I please send this back and exchange it for a new computer?
