Intel(R) Wifi 6 AX201 160Mhz not working

Hello, 

I have looked through your forums and tried a clean install and tried updating drivers but this network adapter keeps failing randomly. At times it will stay on for hours and then other times I have to reset 4-5 times in an hour. 

It could be that I am nto doign the process correctly but I have tried this a couple of times and it isn't working.

I have also included the txt from the SSU at this link.

Hopefully you can help - I have school, business, and personal operations that keep getting interrupted. 

 

Thanks!

Hello Cesmith, 


Thank you for posting in our communities. 


Please perform the cold reboot first. The cold reboot is part of the troubleshooting steps in resolving errors with Intel Bluetooth® or wireless (Wi-Fi) devices.


Please follow the instructions on the link below on how to perform a cold reboot:

How to Perform a Cold Reboot for Laptops and Desktops Equipped with Intel Bluetooth® or Wireless (Wi-Fi) Devices


If the issue still persists after trying out the cold reboot, please try the troubleshooting steps outlined on this link: Intel® Wireless Adapter Keeps Disconnecting from the Network.


And if the issue still persists, please share a photo of your device manager showing the network adapter section.


We look forward to your response!


Thank you, and have a great day ahead!

To Confirm:  Uninstall adapter - perform cold reboot - install newest driver? 

 

Or just perform the cold reboot, plug everything in and see what happens?

 

Thanks!
