I had a very similar problem. Mir would randomly freeze/lagout whilst playing and when I checked my wireless connection it would show as disconnected. There seemed to be no consistency with it. I wouldn't need to reboot though, just close Mir and wait a few seconds for it to reconnect. Weird thing was it only happens with Mir and no other game or app.
Luckily I had some Ethernet over power socket converters which pretty much solved my disconnection issues and I just use those when I want to play Mir. They are very useful if you aren't able to plug in directly to your router.

Just in case the reason you're rebooting is because Mir gets stuck on the black screen after freezing, you just need to alt+f4 twice to close it fully.
i did close mir but wireless disconnect and wont come back and when i search for available wireless it show nothing till i reboot my laptop , i can use 4G usb stick and it work but i want my laptop wirless works also for mir ,, btw i don't have firewall and anti virus on so nothing blocked .. think the problem with driver and mir but i update the driver i even change operating system but problem still the same on my laptop .. but my disktop work fine !!!
