Windows 10: Wi-Fi Icon grayed out during heavy speedtest (Asus PCE-A88)

The Wi-Fi icon becomes grayed for few seconds during heavy speedtest, seems related to a lack of connectivity

I've an Asus PCE-A88 Wi-Fi device

I made a video to explain it

Speedtest - icona wi-fi che si disabilita parzialmente - Streamable

:)

 

Wrong wi-fi icon?

what if you try a simple disabling of the wifi network connection then enable it again and see if the icons change? It shows the Broadband connection as disabled anyways, so I cant think that would effect the icon status of the enabled wi-fi.

 

Asus PCE-AC56 PCIE Wi-Fi Card not Working

Hello everybody,

I have been looking around for help on this but there hasn't been much in the way to fix the issue. It seems to be an issue with the Fall Creators Update. The issue is that the device cannot start:

This device cannot start. (Code 10)

{Operation Failed}

The requested operation was unsuccessful.

I am currently using an AMD FX-8350, 970 Pro Gaming/Aura Motherboard, 32 gigs of Corsair RAM running at 1600 MHz, Gigabyte GTX 1060, and the Asus PCE-AC56 PCIE Wi-Fi Card.

After looking into Event Viewer it states this:

Device PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_43B1&SUBSYS_85BA1043&REV_03\4&e21b4e0&0&0050 requires further installation.

Then this:

Driver Management has concluded the process to add Service BCMWL63A for Device Instance ID PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_43B1&SUBSYS_85BA1043&REV_03\4&E21B4E0&0&0050 with the following status: 0.

Then this:

Driver Management has concluded the process to add Service vwifibus for Device Instance ID PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_43B1&SUBSYS_85BA1043&REV_03\4&E21B4E0&0&0050 with the following status: 0.

Then this:

Driver Management concluded the process to install driver bcmwdi.inf_amd64_43fc1506222a9c82\bcmwdi.inf for Device Instance ID PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_43B1&SUBSYS_85BA1043&REV_03\4&E21B4E0&0&0050 with the following status: 0x0.

I have tried uninstalling the Asus PCE-AC56 PCIE Wi-Fi Card drivers and reinstalling, updating them manually to the latest drivers (Windows Update doesn't seem to find the latest drivers), and uninstalling and letting Windows do it's thing by updating itself.

 

Wrong wi-fi icon?

I have my 'old' Black Panther system now connected by a wi-fi dongle.

There isn't a networking problem here, because the pc gets online with no problem.

However the bottom-right icon (near the clock) shows the symbol for not connected - 5 empty bars and a red cross over them.
Mousing over the icon it says 'network - internet access' *Confused And there is internet.

Why isn't the correct icon showing up? *Wtf :wtf:
