  1. Cannot find 5ghz wifi all of a sudden


    I was using my 5ghz wifi yesterday when I lost connection entirely, it has now been around 24 hours and I cannot see it in the network settings. My room-mates and my own phone can all connect easily and I have tried all the recommendations on the microsoft site and on others on how to fix it. I have run troubleshooters numerous times, restarted both my laptop and the router multiple times. nothing is working and it is very frustrating.

    :)

    5GHz Wifi

    Hello. I want to connect to 5GHz wifi, but its not showing up in the connection list. I've done a bit of research and my laptop should be able to connect to the 5GHz band.

    5ghz wifi not showing windows 10

    I just got a new modem/router and it has a 2.4ghz and 5ghz wifi connections...Only the 2.4ghz shows in the wifi list while the 5ghz isn't showing at all. My computer's network card does support the 5ghz and I know the 5ghz is working because I can connect to it from other devices...just not my desktop computer.

    EDIT: I've attempted updating network driver, also resetting network in the settings menu. Both hasn't worked.

    Cannot find 5ghz wifi all of a sudden

    Cannot connect to any 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz wifi with password

    Hello.

    This is my first time trying to ask for tech help since the search button was always my teacher but seems I'm out of inspiration.

    I fresh installed W10 to my laptop YEPO 737a and for some strange reason I can't connect to any of the multiple wifi I've tried (home, work, phone) unless it is a 5Ghz open wifi. The message I see is "Can't connect to this network" so I tried to find other's
    solution but to no avail. In the end what I found out is:

    • 2.4Ghz and password: Not connecting
    • 2.4Ghz and open: Not connecting
    • 5Ghz and password: Not connecting
    • 5Ghz and open: connecting normaly

    I thought it was drivers, so I manually updated them but still nothing

    The device is Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 3165

    Thanks in advance
