Windows 10: Realtek 8821AE Wireless LAN 802.11ac PCI-E NIC driver not working with new updates

Dear all


My ASUS desktop contains a Realtek WiFi PCI card. Since several updates of the Windows 10 OS I can't see my WiFi network after restart.

I can see networks I never connected to, I can see the network I create with my iPhone, but all the previous ones belonging to my home network are not detected.


The only way out I found so far is to return to the last working driver I have (2023.54.331.2017 dated 03.05.2017). As soon as I re-install this one, all my networks re-appear and can connect without trouble.


Can you help to get back to the new driver?


with best regard

Gerhard

There are 2 versions listed:

Realtek 8821AE Wireless LAN 802.11ac PCI-E NIC Version: 2023.43.914.2016 [10/14/2016]

Realtek 8821AE Wireless LAN 802.11ac PCI-E NIC Version: 2023.55.415.2017 [05/18/2017]

 

After the July 15, 2016 my wifi card disappeared.

I have gone back to last week's restore point, but the network adaptor is still "not connected." Something about the crash that occurred after the windows update seems to have convinced the computer that the network adaptor is disconnected, but that seems
unlikely since nothing moved and this is an internal adaptor (Realtek 8821AE Wireless LAN 802. 11ac PCI-E NIC)
