Hello, I noticed you've upgraded your PC recently but still face issues with WiFi after installing a new OS. Since you're using the same system with another SSD and the connection works, it likely points to a driver problem. To resolve this, you can follow these steps:

1. Open Device Manager.
2. Expand the "Network adapters" section.
3. Right-click your WiFi adapter and select "Update driver."
4. Choose "Search automatically for drivers" or manually enter the manufacturer/model.
5. Install any updates that appear.

If the issue persists, consider checking the latest drivers from the manufacturer's website or using a different network to test connectivity.

For your Ethernet controller, yes. If your motherboard included the WiFi card, you’d obtain the drivers from the same source; otherwise, you’d go to the manufacturer’s website for your WiFi card. If your system lacks an internet connection, you’d download the drivers on another computer, transfer them to a USB flash drive, and then install them on this PC.

The items are already on the USB drive, yet they aren't functioning when you launch the app.

Actually, I managed to get it working. I ran the app that came with the downloaded driver instead of updating the Ethernet Controller via Device Manager. Thanks for the help!
