I have a windows 11 computer and recently the wifi is not working. There is that iconic no wifi sign on the bottom right next to the date. When you click there it doesn't give me the option to connect to the internet, there use to be an option there where it gave me a list of connectable sources but now it seems like I can only use ethernet. It says there is something wrong with my network adapter

    Open start and search for feedback and open the Feedback Hub app and report this issue.

    Visit your device's manufacturer website and download and install the latest Wi-Fi driver for your device.

    Since it it Intel's driver, you may update it from:

    Hi Zack,

    Go to Device Manager, expand network adapters, check if the WiFi network adapter is present, enabled and if it works normally. If necessary, uninstall it and then restart your computer.
