Sudden and Random WiFi Disconnections

Hello,

I've been having some long-term problems with my WiFi since I upgraded to Windows 8. I feel like I've looked everywhere, and I've ended up here. In short, my computer will disconnect from WiFi seemingly randomly. Some days are fine, some days are nearly impossible. My quick fix, usually, is to restart my computer a couple times and that usually quick-fixes it. Granted, I don't know that Windows 8 is what caused this, as I've also had to do a couple factory resets. Here is the TSG SysInfo Log:

And here is what I got for ipconfig at the time of this post:

Something else that might be important is that I never disconnect when I have my old router in (I'm talking 2008-09), but all the time with any current router, anywhere I've gone.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, and be sure to let me know if there's any more information that I can provide. Best,

Ryan
