Hi, your Asus K517LI-PB71 seems to lose Wi-Fi after some idle time. Fixing the issue restores it, but it drops more often afterward. The included card is an Intel AX201NGW. I replaced it with a Qualcomm Atheros QCA61x4A from my Lenovo laptop, and it works fine without dropping. Some people might think the Intel card is bad, but it only supports CPUs from the 10th generation onward. Troubleshooting the Intel card in your Lenovo won’t help since it doesn’t show up there.

Is this the WiFi adapter included with the laptop from Asus? The AX201 is a version of the AX200, both supporting WiFi 6, though the AX201 depends on CPU/Intel specifics for proper operation.
