Windows 10: WIFI stopped working, adapter not reinstalling

Hello,on my Asus X73SV running Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit, suddenly the wifi stopped working. When clicking on the network symbol in the taskbar globe, only "Flight mode" is shown and that is greyed out.In the device manager, the wifi card was hidden/greyed out. I tried updating drivers - said it was already up to date.I then tried uninstalling the WIFI device which worked, but after restarting my Laptop, the device won't reinstall.On the Asus homepage I can not find any drivers for my model that are compatible with Windows 10, so I am kind of stuck and don't know what else to try.I'd appreciate

:)

 

Wifi adapter has stopped working, wdiwifi.sys errors.

HP Envy 17t with Microsoft Windows 10 (64-Bit) with an Intel Wireless-AC 9560 160MHz network adapter.

My wireless network adapter stopped working on Tuesday. No Internet at all.

When checking the adapter properties I get the following status message:

Windows update log didn't show any updates this week, and I haven't installed any new software recently.

Troubleshooting steps I have taken:

• I have tried updating the driver
  
• I have tried disabling and enabling device.
  
• I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling drivers
  
• I have tried deleting device and scan for hardware changes.
  
• I tried rolling back, but that option wasn't available.
  
• I tried System restore (I only had one restore point and it was less than 24 hours old)
  

None of these worked.

I also ran FSC as admin in safe mode. It detected errors but couldn't fix them. The CBS log has multiple occurrences of "hashes for file member WdiWiFi.sys do not match."

I also tried installing a USB wifi adapter and got the exact same Code 37 error message.

I'm assuming WdiWifi.sys must be causing this but not sure.

Any suggestions on what to do next?

 

I keep losing my WiFi adapter

I tried the Option 2 approach but kept getting the Error NetSetupDeleteObjecton Network Adapter error (0x80070005) error, even after a dozen executions of the command. That seemed like it was going nowhere so I tried Option 1. After completing the reboot in Option 1, I never got the dialog that asked if I wanted to make the computer discoverable, even after a significant wait. Do you have any further suggestions? I'm going to move on to "Compumind's" suggestion in the meantime and see if that helps.... - - - Updated - - -

I started working my way down the list.

1. Both the ipv4 and ipv6 resets said "access denied!". However, the mere attempt worked *briefly*, then the WiFi went down again.
2. I disabled and re-enabled the network adapter. Again, it worked *briefly*, then I lost the WiFi again.
3. I tried to disable the antivirus but couldn't find a setting for that so uninstalled it entirely. I got the WiFi back and this time it stayed on for several hours instead of a few minutes so I assumed it was fixed. Then I installed the new Avast One and the WiFi is still working so I'm assuming that all is well finally!

Thank you for this list of suggestions!!!

 

Wifi adapter stops working

Hi, I am an Independent Advisor.

Please hover your mouse to the Network or Wireless icon at the lower right-hand corner then right click it and click Troubleshoot Network. Let the troubleshooter finish until its done then this should either fix the problem or give us an error message.

If that didn't work, we need to remove the WIFI driver from the Device Manager and restart the pc to reinstall it.

Here the steps to completely remove a Device off your computer.

Step 1. Use shortcut keys Windows key+ X on Windows 10.

Step 2. Select Device Manager.

Step 3. Expand the entry Right-click the problematic device Network Adapters it is either Wireless, or WIFI adapter and select Uninstall device.

Step 4. You need to check the option Delete the driver software for this device, and then click the Uninstall button.

Step 5. Reboot the computer.

After the reboot, please see it the problem is fixed.

If that still would not work, please visit the support website of your laptop or desktop and then download and install the latest Wireless driver then restart the PC.
