  1. How do I fix wifi driver problems and get my network options to reappear?


    I’ve had network connectivity issues for a while and when I turned on my PC today there wasn’t even a wifi option in quick settings. I opened the “Network and internet” tab in settings and there are no available networks. In “hardware and connection properties” it says for both wifi and wifi 2 that they’re operational but their “connectivity IPv4/IPv6” is disconnected. I’ve troubleshooted and it says there is an issue with the drivers, I’ve tried disabling and enabling them, updating them, uninstalling them, unplugging and plugging in wifi 2 USB NIC, “power flushing” the computer, and basi

    Wifi drops and doesn't reappear

    Hi there LemonsyN, I will be your Independent Advisor for today, I hope we can both resolve your problem.

    It can be that you are having a faulty driver or hardware.

    To fix the faulty driver for the WiFi we need to completely uninstall the driver from the device manager and reboot. Here is how to do it.

    Here the steps to completely remove a Device off your computer.

    Step 1. Use shortcut keys Win + X on Windows 10.

    Step 2. Select Device Manager.

    Step 3. Expand the entry Network Adapters. Right-click the problematic device which is the WiFi or Wireless and select Uninstall device.

    Step 4. You need to check the option Delete the driver software for this device, and then click the Uninstall button.

    Step 5. Reboot the computer.

    Disconnect the Ethernet cable and see if you are going to be able to connect to WiFi right away.
