My computer can no longer find my Wi-Fi network?

Hello folks,

I have a problem: my computer suddenly can't find my Wi-Fi anymore (it worked before). I've tried a lot of things, restarted the Wi-Fi router, entered the Wi-Fi manual, reset the network settings, etc. I don't know what to do.

I hope someone can help me!

Thanks in advance!!

The PC is really “restarting” so that it actually restarts all (also the WLAN drivers). Please do not confuse, with “Hunterfahr” and “Start”, because the WLAN drivers are not loaded again, but only a snapshot is used by the driver memory. Because after automatic driver updates (Windows Updats), the driver must sometimes be reloaded to the memory.

Evtl. the WLAN adapter (see Windows Device Manager) cannot support all WLAN channels, some devices (for the US market) do not support channels 13+14. Solution is then to set solid channels (at 2.4 GHz WLAN) 1.6,11 in the WLAN router, or to switch on the router “Canals 13+14”.

If the WLAN router might have got an update and your WLAN adapter (named model of the WLAN adapter, is also in the device manager) does not support modern WLAN encryption WPA2+WPA3.

Does the wireless LAN adapter look healthy in the Windows device manager, does it work according to Windows?

PS:

To check if the hardware of the WLAN adapter is still ok, start Windows PC in “safe mode with network support”. Because in safe mode, virus protection programs and VPN programs are not started (which can also cause this), then a WLAN adapter actually runs more reliably.

Good luck!

Hello Carol044,

then you use a speedport? With these, you can set a fixed WLAN channel in the router menu under WLAN settings ->

Reports like it helped.

Best regards

Always install the latest driver from TP-Link, because only the driver from the manufacturer is the right driver. Windows only uses standard drivers and then report, everything okay! The manufacturer TP-Link has the right. Pay attention to the model:

Set Wi-Fi channels in the speed port:

PS:

Your N300 WLAN adapter supports only Wifi 4 N (2,4 GHz) it can not have a Wifi 5 AC (5 GHz).

It could also be that a mix of encryption (WPA2 + WPA3) irritates your WLAN adapter, then I would try the encryption in the router once on WPA2 (only).

Also, Wifi 6 AX to 2.4 GHz, can cause problems, then simply set on the router Wifi 5 AC (5 GHz) and WiFi 4 N (2.4 GHz), which is more compatible for older WLAN devices.

Good luck!

Good thing you gave a feedback!

So it was a unsupported WLAN channel (13,14)I wrote:

In the task bar, normally, as a network display, at least one Globus symbol > Click on > In the blue window shown thereupon click the button “Wi-Fi.
See picture example (Win10)
