Sounds like your machine is doing a network lookup to try and establish whether it is online, and failing to find it able to connect to the big internet is disconnecting you from your Jackpot and connecting instead to whatever other network(s) you have available.
On windows, this is called NCSI.
When you have the issue, can you confirm that Windows has switched back to one of your other networks?
Your tablet/phone aren’t doing the same thing, so they work.
Laptop is hardwired to modem. All other wifi networks are unticked so can’t auto reconnect. The above Has been like this since hooked up jackpot .
Worked sweet for about 2 weeks everyday. Never missed a beat. Now it can take up to 20min to reconnect. At times fluid NC disappears from wifi list but when there full strength. Wires under board no cover on board . Laptop 6 feet from board. Been fine until 2 days ago
What IP address does your laptops wired network adapter use?

OK, so your windows box is dual-homed with a NIC cabled to your router and WiFi connected to a Jackpot in AP mode.
What behavior do you see if you unplug the wired connection to the laptop? Is it then stable connecting to the jackpot?
Since you have a dual homed machine, I presume you want to be able to use internet while also driving you machine. In that scenario, why not consider adding you Jackpot in STA mode to your existing network?
Okay - that’s fine. if it was also using a 192.168.1 address with the same subnet I could see it causing issues.
