Hello and welcome to the forums.
Not sure, maybe.
Since this is a laptop, are you talking about your wireless card? If so then yes. Advanced power settings should also include a +sign next to Wireless Adapter Settings - Power Saving Mode - Set that to "Maximum Performance". If we are talking about your integrated wired ethernet NIC, then perhaps change the PCI Express - Link State Power Mangement - Off.
See if that helps and thanks for joining our community.
Keep us posted.
