    I was not able to find Wi-Fi after installing windows on a new ssd


    I tried to install a windows 11 via a USB drive on a new SSD and I was not able to connect to the internet thru wifi during installation and after it I tried to do a network troubleshooting and it finds that there is a network adapter not connected or having a broken cable but when I changed the ssd back to the old one I was able to find Wi-Fi and everything was working fine, is there any solution on this particular problem with the ssd?

    :)

    Trouble Changing Wi-Fi Password


    I've been following the following steps to change my Wi-Fi password for some time:

    1. Launch Control Panel.
    2. Click "Network and Internet."
    3. Click "Network and Sharing Center."
    4. Click "Wi-Fi...."
    5. Click "Wireless Properties."
    6. Click the Security tab.
    7. Check "Show characters."
    8. Enter the password in "Network security key."
    Those steps have been working just fine, but today I discovered a new wrinkle. If I change the password inside the router first, "Wi-Fi..." doesn't appear in step 4. This isn't much of a problem at home, because I can just change the password in Control Panel before I change it inside the router, but it would be a problem at a public hotspot, or something of that nature. I also tested Brink's instructions in "How to Connect To a Wireless Network in Windows 10," but they don't work for me either. How can I fix this?
