Suddenly, my Wi-Fi on my Desktop stopped working when I turned it on. It connects but shows no internet. I’ve restarted the modem, PC, reinstalled and reinstalled drivers, downloaded the newest Intel Wi-Fi drivers, but nothing works. Even resetting the network doesn’t help. When I go into troubleshooting, restarting the adapter fixes it (sometimes needing multiple restarts), but I still can’t get online. I know the problem isn’t with my modem since my iPad, phone, and laptop all function properly. What’s going on? Any suggestions for next steps to resolve this?

Disable the wireless card power-saving feature by right-clicking “This PC,” choosing “Properties,” then navigating to the “Device Manager.” Expand the “Network Adapters” section, locate your wireless network card name, click on it and select “Properties.” In the Properties window, go to the “Power Management” tab and uncheck the option “Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.” Click “OK” and restart your computer.

Do your motherboards support Wi-Fi? Updating the BIOS might be possible if it is compatible.
