Windows 10: Wi-fi 6 AX201 keeps failing no matter how many times I reinstall it

yeahBISH · Nov 10, 2021

I keep receiving Code 43 and having to connect my laptop to the modem to reinstall the Wi-Fi Driver.I've had this laptop since March, and this issue has gotten progressively worse over time. It used to never happen. Then it was every 10th time I turned on my laptop, then every 5, and just before posting this I've had to reinstall it 3 times this afternoon.I have an ASUS ROG Strix G17 the 2020 model. Is it potentially a hardware issue that I can just get a part swapped over? Is it the driver itself that's just known to be this faulty?Is there an alternative driver that I can install instead s

:)

Wi-Fi issue

Hi,

My Wi-Fi adapter stops working unexpectedly and it does not get fixed until I shutdown then start the PC (doing a "restart" does not work, and sometimes even shutdown/start does not help).

I installed the latest intel drivers (21.90.3.2) but I'm still having the same issue. When I checked the system logs (Computer Management->System Tools->Event Viewer->Windows Logs->System) I found these errors:

Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160MHz : Has determined that the network adapter is not functioning properly. (Event ID: 5002, Source: Netwtw10)

Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160MHz : A required parameter is missing from the registry. (Event ID: 5011, Source: Netwtw10)

Miniport Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160MHz, {4149652b-ccd6-4000-845f-d7f5f0b29b41}, had event Fatal error: The miniport has detected an internal error (Event ID: 10317, Source NDIS)

ACPI: ACPI BIOS is attempting to write to an illegal PCI Operation Region (0x4, 0x10, 0x12, 0x14, 0x16), Please contact your system vendor for technical assistance. (Event ID: 10, Source: ACPI)

Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160MHz : The version number is incorrect for this driver. (Event ID: 5006, Source Netwtw10)

I have tried resetting network settings, reinstalling the OS but issue keeps appearing almost every day.

Please help!

PC: HP Spectre x360, 13-aw00n10

Wi-Fi 6E extends Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6 into 6 GHz

Capacity, efficiency, and performance for advanced connectivity

Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6™, the industry certification program based on the IEEE 802.11ax standard, enables next generation Wi-Fi connectivity providing the capacity, coverage, and performance required by users—even in environments with many connected devices such as stadiums and other public venues. Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6 networks enable lower battery consumption in devices, making it a solid choice for any environment, including smart home and Internet of Things (IoT) uses.

Key benefits of Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6 technology include:

Higher data rates

Increased capacity

Performance in environments with many connected devices

Improved power efficiency

Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6 provides the foundation for a host of existing and emerging uses from streaming ultra high-definition movies, to mission-critical business applications requiring high bandwidth and low latency, to staying connected and productive while traversing large, congested networks in airports and train stations.

Wi-Fi 6E extends Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6 into 6 GHz

Wi-Fi operation in the 6 GHz frequency band enables Wi-Fi to continue delivering positive experiences for the most bandwidth-intensive applications. Wi-Fi 6E certification as part of Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6 offers the features and capabilities of Wi-Fi 6, extended to the 6 GHz band. Several nations around the globe are making the 6 GHz band available for unlicensed use, and Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6 provides worldwide interoperability certification for devices in these markets.

COUNTRIES ENABLING WI-FI 6E

Wi-Fi 6E can utilize up to 14 additional 80 MHz channels or seven additional superwide 160 MHz channels in 6 GHz for applications such as high-definition video streaming and virtual reality. Wi-Fi 6E devices leverage these wider channels and additional capacity to deliver greater network performance and support more Wi-Fi users at once, even in very dense and congested environments. Wi-Fi 6E will bring greater technology advancements in Wi-Fi that will introduce new use cases, such as unified communications, cloud computing, and telepresence, and accelerate the next generation connectivity with 5G networks.

Innovation and performance in challenging environments

The ubiquity of Wi-Fi and its ability to complement other wireless technologies helps bring the promise of connecting everyone and everything, everywhere, closer to reality. Wi-Fi popularity has also created very diverse and densely populated Wi-Fi conditions, requiring technological advances to meet the needs of users. Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6 delivers improvements and new features that enable Wi-Fi devices to operate efficiently in the most dense and dynamic connectivity settings.

Key capabilities:

Orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) effectively shares channels to increase network efficiency and lower latency for both uplink and downlink traffic in high demand environments

Multi-user multiple input, multiple output (multi-user MIMO) allows more downlink data to be transferred at one time, enabling access points (APs) to concurrently handle more devices

160 MHz channel utilization capability increases bandwidth to deliver greater performance with low latency

Target wake time (TWT) significantly improves network efficiency and device battery life, including IoT devices

1024 quadrature amplitude modulation mode (1024-QAM) increases throughput for emerging, bandwidth intensive uses by encoding more data in the same amount of spectrum

Transmit beamforming enables higher data rates at a given range to increase network capacity

Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6 devices bring enhanced performance to emerging applications such as virtual and augmented reality used in e-Learning, telepresence, and healthcare. Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6 also provides carriers and public Wi-Fi operators with more capabilities to support advanced connectivity in retail, stadiums, and transportation hubs, including a growing array of location-based applications and services.

Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160mhz adapter is experiencing driver or hardware related problems

I've been having the same problem with my wi-fi connection. My lap-top is a brand new Dell Inspiron and I get out of m nervs because it is the one I use for school and some work.

I downloaded the driver from intel and form dell, each week this seems to be the same ritual. Wi-fi gets of, have to go to

manage > device manager > networking adapters > Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160MHz > right click on Properties > Driver tab > update driver > Browse from my computer for device software > let me pick form available driver on my computer > select the diver >
next > and let this $#&T works.

This is how I resolve this issue. But I rather not have to since there is warranty supporting this
