  1. Ability to connect to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth occasionally disappears on my device


    Whenever I use my laptop, it will occasionally lose the ability to connect to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. I'll attach some images of what it looks like when working and not working. the images will be in a reply to this post as it will not let me attach images in the original post for some reason.It's as if one minute it's working fine, then another it's as if my computer never had the ability in the first place and the options in the setting menu and dropdown menu also disappear.I've tried everything from re-installing the drivers, checking for updates, and looking through the power-saving settings

    :)

    Wi-Fi disappearing at random times.

    Hello. So I did the steps. And 2 minutes after doing the steps my Wi-Fi disappeared again. The thing is my home Wi-Fi only disappears from the list but other Wi-Fi network's don't.

    Ability to connect to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth occasionally disappears on my device

    Wi-Fi Connectivity

    After Windows 10 upgrade on my HP P7-1420t I lost my ability to connect to Wi-Fi.

    Network Adapters listed in Device Manager: Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller, Wan Miniports - IKEv2, IP, IPv6, L2TP, PPPOE, PPTP, SSTP and Network Monitor. Any help in regaining my Wi-Fi connectivity would be appreciated.
