Windows 10: I reset my PC now I don’t have the option to connect to wifi. Only Bluetooth and Ethernet

I reset my windows pc and I lost the option to connect to wifi idk, I had this option before I don’t know what went wrong. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers to no avail need help

:)

 

Wifi option disappeared

For solution A:

It says plug an ethernet cable into this computer Then check if the problem is fixed or skip step. Nothing about wifi. ( And I don´t have option to connect it to ethernet anytime soon)

For solution B:

I have tried most thing. What i can say its not about router problem or internet provider problem, it´s problem is with laptop. just wifi option is totally gone there is not any trace that laptop have wifi. ( It have )

For solution C:

It say:"download pending update." But I can not because I don´t have internet connection.

So I assume theres the problem. Yeah my computer made update just before wifi problem occured. So i tried uninstall updates but that didn´t help.

D: Have not done it yet. but seem I have to.

 

The wifi and bluetooth connections are not popping up.

Hi Gavan,

I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing issues with your WiFi and Bluetooth connections after updating Windows. Let's gather some more information to better understand and resolve the problem.

Windows Version:

Which version of Windows are you currently using? (e.g., Windows 10, Windows 11)

Update Details:

Can you provide details about the recent Windows update you installed? (e.g., the update number or name)

Device Manager:

Have you checked the Device Manager for any errors or missing drivers for the WiFi and Bluetooth adapters?

Are there any yellow exclamation marks or errors listed under Network adapters or Bluetooth?

Network and Internet Settings:

When you go to Settings > Network & Internet, do you see the WiFi option listed at all?

Under Status, do you see any messages or warnings about your network connections?

Bluetooth Settings:

When you go to Settings > Devices > Bluetooth & other devices, what exactly happens when you try to connect a Bluetooth device? Do you see any error messages?

Ethernet Connection:

Is your computer currently connected to the internet via an Ethernet cable?

If so, does disconnecting the Ethernet cable change the availability of WiFi options?

Previous State:

Were your WiFi and Bluetooth connections working fine before the update?

Have you made any other changes to your system around the same time as the update?

Troubleshooting Steps:

Have you tried restarting your computer after the update?

Have you attempted any troubleshooting steps so far, such as reinstalling drivers or using the Windows Network Troubleshooter?

Hardware Switches:

Does your laptop have a physical switch for WiFi or Bluetooth? If so, is it turned on?

Airplane Mode:

Have you checked if Airplane mode is turned off? Sometimes, updates can accidentally toggle this setting.

Once you provide answers to these questions, we can proceed with more targeted troubleshooting steps.

Best regards,

.

 

WIFI Works, Ethernet won't

OK but why?

NOT YELLING, JUST EMPHASIZING

Please note, I installed the new Lynksis, it worked just fine for 3-4 days on both my MACBOOK PRO when in ethernet connect and the Dell, then the ethernet just quit working for both my MacBook Pro and Dell desktop. It did work, then just quit for no apparent reason. WIFi for iPhone, iPad, Andriod Phone, and when I set to wifi for my MacBook pro all work fine.

Detailed history: I first noticed that on my Desktop dell that is CAT5 ethernet connected to the WIFI ROuter, that it stopped, no internet access. I began to trouble shoot, and turned off my WIFI on my MAcbook and it wouldnt work either, plugged into same router but different cat5 cable. At that time, all WIFI devices still worked. I figured that it must be the ethernet side of the WIFI router, so I replaced the router with brand new one. the Lynksys N900 listed in original thread. Ethernet and everything worked just fine for 3-4 days. But then ethernet quit, but wifi still works.

Whatever the problem, it affects both my MacBook Pro and Dell with WIN 7. I'm guessing it is NOT a computer problem, if it is it is affecting both my Mac and Dell, separate cat 5 cables to same wifi router

To remixedcat, I don't know for sure how to check IP settings, see above post, no damage apparent to anything.
