  1. WIFI NETWORK ADAPTER RANDOMLY GOING FAULTY WHILE PLAYING ANY GAME


    HelloRecently while playing games, my network adapter will suddenly stop working at random. Most of the time, it's 2-5mins into the game. I checked the device manager and found an error on the network adapter Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160MHz . I then tried updating it to a previous network adapter which was available locally. It worked but once I opened a game.....I again lost the connection 2 mins into the game and when I checked my device manager it was again due to my network adapterOh and by the way, the problem occurs only while playing games. When I'm browsing the web or doing something else

    :)

    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. Network adapter giving Code 43 then Code 10 randomly while playing games

    Hello

    Recently while playing games, my network adapter will suddenly stop working at random. Most of the time, it's 2-5mins into the game. I checked the device manager and found an error on the network adapter (Intel wireless 9560) which was Code 43. I did some
    fixes as suggested from different posts which are enabling/disabling, restarting, uninstalling and even updating. All those fixes then gave Code 10. So I did a system reset, where I still keep all my files but resets everything else. But to no avail, the problem
    still exists.

    However, there was this one time when I removed and uninstalled drivers of some peripherals, as one of the posts from a different site suggested, the network adapter did not have any problems while playing. This fix lasted but, after some time, the problem
    came once again. Now it's just Code 10 not Code 43 anymore.

    Oh and by the way, the problem occurs only while playing games. When I'm browsing the web or doing something else, the network adapter is fine. I'm using a laptop, ASUS TUF Gaming FX504GD.

    Did anyone else encounter this? Is there any permanent way to solve this problem?

    Thanks in advance!

    WIFI NETWORK ADAPTER RANDOMLY GOING FAULTY WHILE PLAYING ANY GAME

    Wifi Network Adapter randomly disables frequently

    My wifi adapter disables randomly. After a lot of searching, the likely culprit is the anti-virus disabling the network adapter. I was using McAffee and right now I am using Microsoft Defender and shopping to see if another anti-virus solution doesn't
    use this functionality, which I understand was facilitated by MicroSoft.

    Every time, I can run the troubleshooter and in 30 or so seconds, my network adapter is reenabled and I can carry on (which requires reconnecting to the remove system and restarting my session there).

    This happens at varying frequencies- I have seen it occur twice inside 15 min, but generally happens about once per hour.

    I have checked a number of threads on the subject and I have:

    • Refreshed my Windows 10 installation
    • Updated network drivers
    • Disabled power saving mode on the network card
    • Updated my DNS servers
    • Moved to Static IP (helped me take the router out of the equation as the source of the problem)

    Is there a permanent solution available?

    Thanks,

    Bryce
