Windows 10: Windows 11 - Disconnects from Wifi During Setup

I have a brand new Lenovo Ideapad, and I'm trying to get it set up. But every time I log into the Microsoft account it says it has disconnected from the internet and I have to start over. Then it pulls up the wifi options, and it says it is still connected. I am using an identical laptop right next to it, and it isn't having any problem keeping the internet connection. This has been happening for two days now, and it always does it right at the same point - where I have just logged into the Microsoft account. It accepts the password, sends a code for verification, I type that in, it starts to

• If you have an identical laptop try comparing the wifi and security settings of the one that does not disconnect with the one that does. If you find any differences change the settings of the one that does not work to the one that does.

• If you do not have an identical laptop see this post and the three replies for possible solutions: Wifi disconnects every 5 minutes.

Windows 11 setup, no WiFi card drivers

Like I said, there is no way to install these drivers. Windows 11 setup is not complete. It is stuck on a step where I have to connect to WiFi. There is no way to install drivers.

 

Bridging wifi and ethernet connections – wifi keeps disconnecting

Hi all,

I am trying to use Windows to bridge my wifi connection to non wifi devices. I have successfully setup the bridge in Network Connections. However, the wifi only stays connected for a few seconds before it disconnects (everything is working as expected, with wired devices having internet access, until wifi disconnects). This seems to be something to do with the ethernet cable being connected, as when I disconnect the ethernet the wifi stays connected.

Things I have tried:

• Turning off power management and checking bios for any funky power management settings
  
• Setting "Priority & VLAN" to disabled
  
• Disabling "Automatic metic" and setting wifi to priority order – though you don't seem to be able to change this for specific connections when bridged.
  

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

P.S. everything works fine with bridge disabled and using internet connection sharing enabled on the wifi. However I am unable to connect to devices such as printers (hence why I am trying bridged mode).
