Hey, currently I am using my windows 10 Pro HP Pavilion (don't know the model exactly), so few weeks ago I got my wi-fi changed from a local service provider to a famous company Airtel, the day I got my wi-fi connected it was not showing the name of my wi-fi [Vanya], I connected the ethernet cable then restarted my laptop and the wi-fi router. It was all sorted. Then after a few days my wi-fi got shut due to power supply cut, then I followed the same process and worked again, but yesterday my wi-fi was on but wasn't showing up in my pc's available networks, I have tried all the steps like:

  • Uninstalling the adapter and reinstalling it
  • Then troubleshooting the internet connections
  • Also updated the driver and my laptop,

But none of the above worked for me, pls help me fix this out because my exams are nearby and they are online, and I cannot rely permanently on my mobile hotspot. So, pls help me.
