Win 11 No WiFi adapter

Hi tmarec,

Thank you for the reply. What is your tplink wireless N access point model? From the way it looks, it appears that the wireless access point acts like a physical usb wifi adapter as it is connected via ethernet cable to the back of your pc. You mentioned there is internet connection but slow. What I can think of is the wireless access point might be connected to a different wireless network.

You can check it by getting in to the access point's page and check if it is connected to your router.

Here's how to do it:

1. From your web browser, type 192.168.0.254 (this is the default ip address of the access point)
2. The default user name is "admin" the password is also "admin"
3. This should take you to the access point's settings page.

I would need a screenshot of the access point page to guide you further as I am not familiar as to how it looks.

There are two models in B450 AORUS

1. B450 AORUS PRO
2. B450 AORUS PRO WIFI

Which motherboard did you use now?

B450 AORUS PRO (rev. 1.0) Key Features | Motherboard - GIGABYTE Global

B450 AORUS PRO WIFI (rev. 1.x) Key Features | Motherboard - GIGABYTE India

Yes if you connect with a either net cable [aka blue wire] It will not ask for a password. This is normal. You can try a speed test at www.speedtest.net a "n" router via wifi will only go so fast probably max 100mb/s. You may probably get 20mbs down /10mbs up load speed. I personally haven't seen a "n" only router since 2004ish... A direct connection right to your internet providers box is the best option to test full network capacity. Maybe there is a incorrect setting in the router limiting your network speeds?

Usually network router log-in would be at

http://192.168.0.1

Then you can see your t.p link settings.

Hi JhakeSong,

thank you for answering.

I had Windows update (took one day) but no change.

I have tplink wireless N Access Point connected to my PC - should be wirelessly connected to my router. I tried to unplug it and plugin again, but no change.

I tried to update driver, but again no changes.

I can connect to Internet but it is slow - there is no WiFi connection and it never asked me for wifi password.

It only shows Ethernet (I am not connected by cable).

Hi RAJU.MSC.MATHEMATICS,

I use B450 AORUS PRO andd ownloaded that driver.

Hi tmarec,

Good day! I’m Jhakesong and I'll try to help you today.

I see that your motherboard does not come with a built in WIFI card. In this case, your WIFI adapter is connected via the USB port of your computer. First, try to install the chipset drivers for your motherboard from here:

https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B450-AORUS...

File name: AMD Chipset Driver [3.10.22.706]

After installing the Chipset driver, unplug the WIFI adapter and plug it to a different USB port. See if windows detects the wifi adapter automatically.

If windows does not detect the wifi adapter, check for available updates in windows.

1. press windows key + i, this opens up settings.
2. Click windows update
3. Click Advanced options then go to optional updates
4. Check if there are available driver updates that might be relevant to your wireless adapter.

Let me know how it goes. Have a great day!
