There is no way that you are going to beat down Windows Updates in the long term..... nor should you even try. They are provided to make Windows 10 better and more secure and generally do not result in any problems such as you are experiencing, however.....
1.) You can check the properties of your wireless adapter, under the driver tab and see if there is an option to rollback the driver to an earlier version
2.) You can see if you have a System Restore point to rollback to that is a date in time prior to the problems first occurrence.
Neither of which are long term solutions as, if the problem was produced by a Windows Updates, then sooner or later, you are going to get the same update again. There is a huge update scheduled to rollout on August 2nd, which may or may not help with your current issue.
You might also try going to the laptop manufacturer's support website and download and install the latest driver they have available for the integrated wireless adapter and see if that does anything to help the problem.
