Device fails to connect to Wi-Fi using antenna or Ethernet method.
Completed the new build for a friend without major problems during installation. Placed the window installer on a flash drive and finished setup, but no Wi-Fi networks were found. Ran a reboot and disconnected the antenna several times. Attempted a direct Ethernet connection as well. Booted into BIOS and saw the I/O page showing the Ethernet port as disconnected. Considered updating drivers, but Aorus only provides Windows .exe files. Feeling uncertain now, since the only known fix is to re-flash the BIOS. If anyone else faced similar issues or has suggestions, please let me know.
It seemed possible to use CMD to skip the internet part of the Windows install process. After applying the driver update, the problem was fixed. This might assist others too!
To install Windows 11 on a new PC, use the CMD command line. Follow the steps carefully to ensure a smooth setup.
