Aspire E-15 dropping wifi connection

I have my Acer Aspire E-15 new for the last 8 months, ever since I have it unless i sit close to the router then my wifi signal drops or wont even detect it, this is not my service providers fault as it happens on ALL routers I have tried (my work/friends etc), also, I checked my Internet speed on my router and it showed at 5.9 Mbs PS, yet 3 other laptops tested showed the optimum speed of 30, all done hard wire test,, is there an issue with my wireless driver??...I am not very technically minded on this subject. I have checked the updated version of the driver and it says it is up to date,,,am getting just stonewalled by the comoany I bought it from,,,any help would be very much appreciated

thank you for the reply, I had already done as you suggested, even used driver identifier to identify the correct driver.....but at the end of the process it told me no update required

ok, so it can be an issue with the wifi antenna, sometimes the 2 antenna wires can became loose and need to be replugged but this involves opening the monitor frame and the back of your laptop.
