  1. Why does my wifi network adapter keep deleting itself?


    I have been through 4 different laptops in the past three months. The first two were Dell two different models and second two were HP Victus 15. While there have been various problems across the different laptops, the consistent one is this: the wifi network adapter keeps deleting itself. On all four. Sometimes the graphic card or Bluetooth adapter will also delete, but the wifi always deletes itself.There isn't anything about wifi anywhere, not in the lower left corner, not in settings, not even in the device manager. Sometimes, the missing wifi adapter will appear in the "hidden devices" i

    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.

  3. 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.

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

    - in which build did this occur?

    I have 1903, on a laptop as you can see from my specs. Safe Mode with Neworking (Wi-Fi) works, but there are a couple of steps to get it working. It's possible using an adapter on a desktop is a different matter, I suppose.

    This is what I see- your experience may differ.
