Windows 11 Wifi Drivers For Intel Wireless Adapters

[Trudi Miranda]

Ithas a wireless network adapter Intel Wireless-AC9560 160MHz. The problem is it randomly stops working. 1st time i faced this issue was in around June,2020. I got freaked out and just did a system restore, and everything came back to normal.

But I started facing this issue again from starting of Oct. The adapter stops working and the wifi stops cause of it. Error message when I go to properties:This device has stopped working (something of this sort)

Locate the drivers you downloaded back in Step 1. Run as administrator, and follow the wizard to completion. To Run as administrator right-click over the file you downloaded and select the option to Run as administrator.

We have not heard back from you, so we will close this inquiry. Please remember to follow the steps given above, and if after that you keep having this problem, you should contact the OEM as this can be a hardware problem.

WiFi-22.180.0-Drive64-Win10-Win11.exe is the one that I selected and tried to install but it keeps coming back with the error "One or more issues caused the setup to fail. Please fix the issues and then retry setup"

Because I have no idea what the issues are I don't know how to install it successfully. Could you help me to solve this problem? The current wifi adapter of my laptop is Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160MHz.

Thank you. I tried what you said and it worked. For everyone else, download the above zip file, extract it to your desired location, and then open up Device Manager. In the network adapters section, locate the wifi adapter. Its typically named in the format Intel(R) Wi-Fi (wifi version) (model). Basically, the device that is NOT labeled WAN miniport. Right click on it, select update driver, then select browse my computer for drivers and input the folder location where you extracted the zip. Hit continue and all should be well.

Extract it to a folder, go to Device Manager and look for the Wi-Fi adapter, e.g. Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160MHz, right-click and select Update Drivers, choose Browse my computer for drivers, navigate to the folder above, wala... installed.

I Have an Asrock 390m-itx/ac mobo. Everything was fine, but then these automatic updates were pushed to my pc, and now the intel wireless bluetooth is screwed up. You can see the little usb icon in the systray toggling on/off continuously, and if you look in device manager, the icon is constantly disappearing and reappearing, and you can hear the windows new connection sound effect constantly going off. Intolerable.

I should note that when I see intel wireless in my device manager, i can uninstall, but there is no checkbox to delete files as well. This does exist on Intel Bluetooth. When I reboot, the Intel Wireless driver is already reinstalled.

I had recently updated Intel BT drivers and after that no BT device would connect to my desktop PC anymore. The BT on/off toggle had disappeared form that right-side panel accessible from the taskbar. When I opened Device Manager, the entire tree of devices would keep on refreshing every 2 seconds, until I manually disabled the Intel BT adapter (which was being continuously reset or something). I tried all manners of drive removal/upgrade/downgrade to no avail. Of course I tried rebooting the computer and even messed a bit with BIOS configs for nothing.

Yep. Like many others, I created an account to say thank you- roughly four years after this thread was created. The solution is still relevant, and it's far and away much easier and less time consuming than any of the other "solutions" I tried.

Edit: It might be important to add that different machines might require a longer or shorter interruption in the power supply for this to work. I've seen one person in this thread who unplugged their machine for 15 minutes, but I only unplugged mine for about 30 seconds.

I've just done a clean install of Windows 10 on an old laptop (Lenovo E320), with an Intel Wireless N-1000 network adaptor. Every time the computer starts up, the WiFi won't connect, and when I check the device properties it has a "Device Cannot Start (Code 10)" error.

To fix this, all I have to do is go to the "Driver" tab and disable/enable the device, and the Wifi connects instantly and is rock solid. But I have to do this every - single - time I start the computer, and it's driving me insane.

I've tried everything I can think of, uninstalled and re-installed drivers for the device in question (multiple different versions), power management devices/settings/software, tried various bloatware from Intel and Lenovo, completely re-installed the OS, nothing works.

Some very old forum posts suggested it may have something to do with UEFI/Legacy BIOS settings, but that's a bit beyond me unfortunately. The laptop also has a WiFi on/off function key which I've noticed doesn't work. I think this may be connected but I've been unable to get the function key working either.

I went into the adaptor settings and then into configure on the "Connect using" option.This brings up the wireless network device settings.From there you can choose power management and deselect "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power"After this it resolved the issue on two different laptops for me.This was on both an MSI GS70 stealth and a Microsoft Surface 3

I encountered the same problem after I initially performed a clean install of Windows 10 on my 9-year-old laptop. After quite a bit of online research, I was able to alleviate the problem by disabling the Fast Startup function:

Right click and proprties for your wifi adaptor, click "advance" tab, choose "EnableAdaptivity" and change option as "Disable". Take a try this if you must disable/enable your wifi card to connect network on every start of windows.

I found that when i updated my kernel driver, i had to switch my nvidia graphics to the open source driver as well as the kernel update seemed to break the graphics so that i couldnt connect external monitors. I did this through the UI by selecting Additional Drivers -> Using NVIDIA driver metapackage from nvidia-driver-450 (open source)

I had a new computer and had only booted into windows once. Used my Linux for about three days and then had switched and came back to Linux to find no Wi-Fi. It was as @IncSaint mentioned. Basically, Windows fast boot doesn't shut down all the way and saves some stuff to memory, interfering with Linux setup for Wi-Fi. The answer was to turn off fast boot.

Okay, so if you just installed Linux from a running Windows installation, you may have had Fast Boot enabled. Try to fully power cycle the machine. The network card may be getting passive power, thus keeping itself in a disabled state, which Linux does not seem to be able to enable it from automatically. This fixed Wi-Fi on my system after many attempts at solving the issue.

My wifi adapter on Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS sometimes also not working. Just tried turn-off (restart not working), unplug source cable from power supply(only turn-off-on also not working), turn-on without electricity, plug in source cable to power supply and turn-on. It is weird but wifi is back. I was motivated to do this, because I read and also experienced that after turn-off PC at night and turn-on at morning wifi was working.

Ok, i had to replace original wifi adapter with intel ax210. lspci shows no network card, but lsusb shows bluetooth (integrated in this card). After few hours i finaly found "disabled" wifi network in bios security (probably i tried to lock bugy adapter in this way). Hope this answer will help someone with similar problem.

If any of y'all are dual-booting with Windows, you may need to add a registry key to use UTC time in Windows. Running Zorin OS 16.1, also ran into the same issue in PopOS, both of which are Ubuntu-based forks. Seems to be some sort of clock synchronization issue.

So I work for the IT department of the Ohio State University. We have a brand new Dell computer that came with a 7265 Adapter. Immediately upon receiving it, we noticed that after several hours, the wireless connection would drop. The adapter would be unable to see any wireless networks at all. If you disable and re-enable the adapter it connects immediately.

"The description for event ID 8000 from source NETwNb64 cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer."

Checking the WLAN-Autoconfig log, we see a pattern. There are three messages that pop up every once in a while, roughly every 2-3 hours. These three messages all arrive in this order within the same second.
