  1. WiFi not showing up on Windows


    I recently built a pc. My motherboard has built it Wi-Fi and was working until now. Out of nowhere my PC has no wifi icon in the taskbar. I can get the wifi tab to open through control panel but it only shows Airplane mode and Network & Internet settings, no networks or Wi-Fi symbol. When I click on Network & Internet settings, the settings pops up and closes itself within a second. I’ve tried enabling and disabling Wi-Fi in control panel. I have tried letting Windows update the driver and have tried updating the latest drivers from my motherboard website. The latest driver says it only supports Windows 1909 while I am on 2004 but I was using the latest one since I first built the PC without problems until now. I was able to connect to my Wi-Fi manually through writing the details in Control Panel but it doesn’t work on mobile hotspot and is a hassle. Does anybody have a fix for this problem.

    My motherboard is the Gigabyte DS3H WiFi

    Windows 7 virtual wifi authentication mode

    Hello.

    Just a quick question to whoever is using windows 7 virtual wifi capability - when you type in "netsh wlan show hostednetwork", cmd window displays a list of settings for your hosted virtual wifi.

    I was wondering, is there a way to change authentication method from WPA2-Personal to simple WEP ?

    Cheers.

    WiFi not showing up on Windows

    Is it possible to set up a new manual wifi connection from the command line?

    I'm trying to work out a solution to set up ad-hock wifi connections in Windows 8.1 based on the suggestions in a post on Micsrosoft's answers site. Is there any way to do the first few steps:

    • go to "Network and Sharing Center"
    • click "Set up a new connection or network"
    • double click "Manually connect to a wireless network"
    • enter the SSID of the ad-hoc network (as shown by "netsh wlan show networks") into the "Network name" field
    • configure security settings accordingly
    • uncheck "Start this connection automatically" (important)

    ...without using the windows dialogs?
