I know some people have had issues with wifi cutting out after they upgraded to jellybean, well I may have found a fix.

Go to system settings

Click on wifi to the far left to get to the wifi screen

Hit the menu button and hit advanced

Uncheck the box that says avoid poor connections.

The problem usually happens when you have low wifi signal, so it disconnects and then reconnects because it is right on the edge of good signal and poor signal. It has fixed my issues and hopefully it will work for you also.
