  1. Missing network adapter drive, no WiFi option


    No wifi option button. No network adapter showing in device manager. Tried network reset: no change. Have tried downloading drive from phone but not sure if doing correctly. When using network troubleshooter displays message "you're using a virtual network adaptor we can't test." I've tried suggestions with the command prompt, nothing is working.Nothing shows in control panel>network and Internet > network connections.Also no Bluetooth.Any help appreciated please.

    :)

  2. Wifi is in the Network Adapter Option

    Hello,

    I have an issue with my PC’s wifi connection. The wifi option is missing in the “Network & Internet Setting” and is also missing in the “more network adapter options”.

    I am using a “TP-Link wireless PCI Express Adapter” for my wifi and under Device manager, the option is hidden. Updating the driver does not help the issue and I’ve tried uninstalling the driver which made things much worse causing me to restore all the files.

    Safe Mode with Networking - No network - No WiFi adapter...

    I'm not sure what build they made the change in . I have tried every suggestion I found and nothing worked. When in Safe Mode my wireless network doesn't even show up so I can't choose it as a option.

    Edit: I just tried booting into Safe Mode. The network icon had a X in it. When I clicked on it the only option was Airplane Mode.

    WiFi Adapter question

    To be honest, I keep losing my wifi connection and Im almost positive its not due to my internet connection or Router or anything like that. VERY often, everyday, all day it keeps happening. The troubleshooter always resolves it by "reset wifi-adapter" (I believe this is the step it takes that resolves the problem) before it happens again anyways. Its driving me nuts ! Most time when it suddenly goes out (the connection) all the networks that should be in "show available networks" or all but the one I was connected to, disappear. I run the troubleshooter and it ends in resetting the wifi adapter. And it works. 10 minutes later, it happens again. Im trying to pin down the problem here. Thank you for your help.
