Laptop keeps dropping internet connection

My lap top drops the internet connection almost non stop. When I look at the status it says 'local connection only'. I have to disconnect from our network and then reconnect to solve it, however that solution only lasts a few minutes and then I get dropped again.F5D9231-4
