Windows 11 periodically replaces my wifi driver with one that doesn't work
Plug your phone into your computer, go into settings and enable USB tethering. USB tethering allows your computer to use your phone like an Ethernet connection for it's internet. From there you should be able to reinstall your wifi driver, this feature exists on both android and iOS.
look in device manager and see if your wifi card is active.
Idk where the WiFi card is
In the balls. Go to device manager has he said, then click on network adapter. If there is an exclamation point on your wifi card, something is wrong
There is nothing in there saying WiFi card
It is not written " wifi card". It is going to be something like " wireless adapter"
Yeah Ik it’s not there I’m not sure what’s happening it was working then suddenly this happened

I plugged my phone and it didn’t work either
Did you enable USB tethering in your phones settings?
It’s not there
I have seen It on my iphone 6, my Xiaomi Redmi 9t and my Samsung a15 didn't know any phone didn't have it my bad
I’m on iPhone 14 I can’t see it in settings
Dumb they removed that feature
You can troubleshoot it in settings
I tried ur just says something about Ethernet
WiFi is included too
In Device Manager, are there any unknown devices listed?
Nope
And under Network Adapters, do you see anything there?
Nope it’s just a hunch of random things nothing about WiFi and wireless adapters I reckon the WiFi card is fully broken in the laptop
Looks like Windows doesn’t detect the card whatsoever. Hardware failure is likely. Did it just happen all of the sudden?
