Cultural Tip
In everyday Italian, many people say "cadere" (to fall) when talking about a connection that drops, e.g., "Il Wi‑Fi cade". Remember that "Wi‑Fi" is masculine, so you say "il Wi‑Fi" and not "la Wi‑Fi". In formal contexts (e.g., speaking with a support technician) keep the full phrase "si disconnette" for clarity.
