Windows 10 hates my Internet connection especially on youtube

Does anyone here know how I get windows 10 to stop dropping my connection?

After I "upgraded" from windows 8.1 my WLAN connection often drops especially when I watch youtube recently. "Resetting" the adapter fixes it for a seemingly random period of time, going as low as single digit seconds until it breaks again.

P.S.: After thinking about it I also can't enter youtube links into the adress bar even on W8.1, anyone know what's up with that?
P.P.S: Apparently it's every time huge amounts of data are transmitted.

Have you seen if there is any updated drivers for your NIC? Is your Wifi 2.4ghz or 5ghz? You might want to bounce back and forth between 2.4 and 5ghz to see if the problem persists on both SSIDs.
