Acer Laptop Wireless network adapter missing

Hello all,

Laptop: Acer aspire V15 nitro black edition using windows 10

Issue: my atheros qualcomm wireless network adapter is not visible under network adapters, therefore unable to connect to any wifi.

I have tried

• Performing network reset from Network & internet status menu. This has actually resolved the problem before but now it longer works having performed system restore.

• System restore made problem worse, have tried reversing restore.
• Tried changing WWAN autoconfig service to automatic
• performed reset via command prompt
• when adapter was visible i tried reinstalling driver and changing power settings.

Problem seems to be on startup, it persists if resolved. Could driver be corrupt? How would i install new driver if i cannot connect to the internet?

considered getting a usb wireless adapter, although not a resolution, would it give me wifi for now?

 

Mom's Acer Desktop with Network Adapter Issue

I want to thank you all that assisted me on fixing my mother's Acer desktop that we bought in 2013 or 2014.

After many steps of troubleshooting, finding no updated network adapter driver software because of the computer being no longer in support by Acer, and the issue not being resolved, I decided to sell the Acer and in turn I purchased my mother a new HP (Hewlett-Packard) Desktop that came out last year (2020). It should be delivered this Monday.

Her new computer (The HP Desktop) is similar to mine but newer. I will post a link of the computer in the thread below from HP.
