    I had to take off my PCI adapter but the Wi-Fi USB adapter doesn’t work and I can’t connect...


    I have a small build and my new GPU resulted in the PCI adapter being taken out. I tried to use a Maxesla USB adapter and installed its drivers but it doesn’t work. I have also tried to connect to a laptop and share Wi-Fi through it but didn’t work. I’m not sure if I have to install some network adapters for my pc for it to work but also not sure what to download. My CPU is an intel i7 10700 with an asus prime H510M-E motherboard. The option for Wi-Fi doesn’t even appear on the bottom right. I’ve resorted to using an Ethernet cable as a temporary solution but I’m hoping to fix this problem, pl

    USB Wi-Fi Adapter Disabling

    Is it on Windows 8's compatibility list (check MS website- forgot link)?

    I had an issue with one Wi-fi adapter and it wasn't listed as compatible- All was well when I swapped it out with one on the compatibility list

    Virtual Wi-fi Adapter

    Hi,

    I'm using my laptop as a second screen for my desktop. (by pressing win + p)
    For some reason, this feature is only available in Windows if your desktop has a wi-fi adapter.
    Funny thing is, that after I connect to my laptop with wi-fi, I can remove the adapter and it still works.

    I just managed to brake my adapter, so I was thinking if I can create a virtual wi-fi adapter somehow just to enable this option.
    Any suggestions?
