Asus X552l Wifi Driver Download
Gano Richardson
I have an ASUS X552L i3 with Windows 7 64 bit and I want to upgrade my 2.4 GHz WiFi card (Ralink 802.11n) with one that lets me to also connect to the 5 GHz band (so a dual band). I know that external USB WiFi adapters exist but I am trying to see if I can replace the on-board one.
After researching for some time online, I came to the conclusion that there are no (stock) on-board WiFi cards with the 5 GHz standard for my particular laptop. All the (stock) WiFI cards have the B/G/N standard.
I pose the question: To get 5 GHz functionality on my laptop, can I find a WiFi card from one of the same OEM suppliers that also manufacture the stock 2.4 GHz cards (Realtek, Ralink, Qualcomm or maybe also from Intel (as I've seen various older threads online regarding the Intel 7260, but on other ASUS laptop models) ) by, perhaps, checking other ASUS laptops that use a dual-band card and purchase that part from somewhere online (original spare parts websites, resellers etc) and hope that it fits in my laptop and hope that the drivers from that particular ASUS model match for my ASUS model? Is this the way? Will my BIOS even recognize it?
On the same note, I've written an e-mail to the Technical dept. at asus.com regarding this issue and they informed me that there is no BIOS compatibility or drivers for the Intel cards and that maybe one of the Qualcomm Atheros devices can work, but they were unable to tell me about which part no because they do not have access to the list of compatible models (if any exists). On the Qualcomm Atheros site there are at least 20 dual-band cards ... and I still remain confused about which one can work.
Hey! My Asus laptop X553M is running on windows 10! I powered it up today and it won't show any available wifi networks, just a symbol for an Ethernet cable with a red "x" on the bottom of the screen. I've tried everything from resetting my network connections but nothing is working and I need the wifi up and running as soon as possible! Unsure if I should buy a wireless adapter to fix this problem (even though connecting to wifi has worked for over a year on this laptop). Any help would be appreciated, thanks!!
And searched the drivers for my laptop. Found them via PC, downloaded them on external disk, transferred them on laptop and tried to install them but most of them cannot complete the installation because lack of the internet connection. Lol. :) I will try some from your link. Btw thx. for that link and for the reply. ;)
mikaylacallery , Make sure you are not in airplane mode, which disables WiFi. You could also try system restore to an earlier date when WiFi was working correctly to see if that helps. Another thing to try, go into settings,device manager, click network adapters, then click on the adapter that is your wireless WiFi. uninstall driver. Then right click on network adapters and click search for network adapters, it should automatically install it back. Try WiFi settings and connect.

Like others suggested, I would try to reinstall your network drivers. If that doesn't work, I would just buy an external usb wifi card. They are a cheap and easy solution, which could offer better performance depending on the wifi chip that came preinstalled on your laptop.
My usb adapter did that one time as well. Unplugging it and plugging it back in seemed to resolve the issue. Now, while this is much more complicated to do for laptops, I would try to open it up and check the connection to your card. (I would only do this if have some prior experience with computers and networking.)
I've got a usb wifi card - I think! - when there are wifi connection problems I plug it out and then back in again - I keep having to do this though so considering the amount of people with this problem there must be a flaw with the inbuilt wifi card on asus laptops..
I know this reply is late as to when the thread was originally created but what I did to resolve my WiFi not seeing any signal issue in my ASUS X555DA-BB12-BK was as follows. Keep in mind this solution is not for anyone who doesn't understand computers and has never worked on them. I just felt it was worth posting just to help someone who could do this and exhausted all other means and solutions found on the web.
What worked for me was to open the laptop up, disconnect the battery. Yes this laptops battery is not external so I had to open it to power the system down fully. While I had the keyboard off I disconnected the two internal WiFi wires (Black & White). After about a minute I connected the WiFi wires back and the put the battery back in.
For those that have an external battery, try taking it out with no AC connection and let it sit for a few minutes. See if that resolves the issue. I just did the extra step of removing the WiFi wires while I have the case open.
My daughter had the same problem. I tried all those suggested remedies posted on google, Microsoft and Asus. NO LUCK. Then I think and focus on the operating system that is Windows 10 and I found out that after the latest update she looses the WiFi. So I looking for the latest update on her computer (On your screen bottom left hand corner next to window symbol - Type here to search- Type there Windows update - select Windows update settings - select Update History - select the latest update then select UNINSTALL.for my case Security update for Microsoft Windows(KB4074588). After you select UNINSTALL the screen will pose for 8 to 10 minutes as nothing happen. Be patience. Then uninstalling screen (small rectangular screen) will appear and gathering information to uninstall the latest update. It will take 45 minutes to an hour. you have to sit beside your computer and do other things while keep an eye on it if it is going to sleep mode just drag the cursor etc. After uninstall the latest update you have to restart your computer. It will take another 25 minutes because it has to rearrange all the software things. Once you log on Type WiFi at Type here to search window at the bottom left corner screen and select Change WiFi settings and you can see your WiFi there type your WiFi password and you are connected. You can't stop updating Windows 10. The uninstall update will automatically update again but this time we hope both the update and WiFi will work without any flaw. Thanks. T. Jeyaseelan.
Your solution really worked me! Thank you... But it was all done in around 5 minutes from me, including the reboot, I have one more i3 8th gen laptop, it would take around 10 minutes at Max to get all this procedure completed, mate your daughter is using a very slow laptop, if it's anything above 8th gen and 4GB ram, it only need optimizations, get them done yourself.
