    WiFi lost after Reset


    Hello,

    I reset Window 10, after which I have no WiFi, though I can connect to the internet by an ethernet connection quite satisfactorily.

    I saved on my desktop an HTML file that showed programmes that had been deleted during the reset. Included in the list was
    “REALTEK Wireless LAN Driver and Utility REALTEK Semiconductor Corp. 1.00.0244"
    Double clicking on the link took me to the Realtek website. My motherboard manual identified the LAN as RTL8111E. From the Realtek website I downloaded RTL8186L / 8111E. Unzipped and installed drivers. Device manager shows driver as 10.25.119.2018 dated 19/01/2018.

    I still have no apparent WiFi connection. I would appreciate some advice on how to proceed.

    Thanks in advance.

    :)

  2. If I do a PC Reset will the wifi adapter driver be removed during the reset as it's how I get my internet service in the first place?

    HiWiFi lost after Reset :)...I need to do a PC reset with my computer as I have a js virus in it and can't get rid of it(keeps coming back-showing up) so thought I could do a PC reset and finally get rid of it but when I clicked the next step and to keep files it told me a
    list of things that will be removed and my wifi adapter driver is one of the things to be removed in this list so if I start the PC Reset will my wifi be lost during the Reset?I need the wifi adapter to work as that is how I get my internet so not sure what
    to do at this point and need any help I can get?

  3. Wifi card needs resetting


    I tried everything suggested so far and thanks guys but it still the same fault?

    If I ask windows10 to diagnose the lack of internet it quite happily resets the WiFi card and all is fine until the laptop goes to sleep/switches off?? *Banghead

    WiFi lost after Reset

    Wifi doesnt work after resetting windows 10 tablet


    Hi guys,

    i recently bought a windows 10 tablet from Onda that came with full licenced windows 10 (didnt upgrade from anything) and i reset it as soon as id finished fiddling about with it and testing it so i could set it up fresh. it worked perfectly before resetting it and it connected to my wifi fine but after it wont find any internet connections and when i click the wifi icon in the corner it says connections unavailable.

    ive tried the reg delete thing as it has vpn on it and i googled around trying to find a fix, one of which suggested if you upgrade from windows 8 that vpn breaks the wifi so this might be similar? however the command prompt didnt find the reg key/thing it was supposed to delete so that was a no go.

    ive tried diagnosing connection problems and it resets the wifi adaptor but nothing improves, ive also tried updating the wifi driver but it says its already up to date and i cant connect to the internet on it to search for another adaptor. ive contacted Onda but theyve just offered to replace it if i send this back which im a bit wary of doing as they might just deny recieving the item and im out £160 + whatever it costs to send to china tracked.

    could anyone please help me?


    this was what i tried:

    Step-2: Execute the following command and then press Enter

    reg delete HKCRCLSID{988248f3-a1ad-49bf-9170-676cbbc36ba3} /va /f

    Step-3: Enter the bellow command and press Enter

    netcfg -v -u dni_dne


    it couldnt find the reg to delete
