Windows 10: What is the purpose of flight mode in Windows 11, if I can still connect to a wifi network...

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.

Hello
Oliver1276

Thank you for your post.

Please read bellow more info about Turning On and OFF the Flight Mode.

Flight mode is a setting on your phone that lets you turn off the mobile network connection, WiFi, FM radio, Bluetooth and near-field communication (NFC) sharing on your phone simultaneously. You can still use other apps that don't require a
mobile network connection, including ones that let you listen to music or watch videos.

While you're in flight mode, you can still turn on WiFi, FM radio, Bluetooth and NFC sharing individually. The mobile connection remains switched off until you turn flight mode off.

To turn flight mode on or off

• 
  In the
  App list, tap Settings
  
  >
  Flight mode.
  
• 
  Turn Status to On
  
  or
  Off
  
  .
  

Notes

• Depending on your mobile operator, phone model and
  Windows Phone operating system (OS) version, FM radio may not be available on your phone.
• The Flight mode icon (
  
  ) appears on the status bar at the top of your screen when flight mode is turned on.

If you mean 5GHZ WiFi connection, you need to check the router settings.

Kind regards,
