Problems:
No Wifi Driver recognized, it is not that the driver is not working, it simply is not present
Wifi driver will start working after attempted fixes but not consistently with any one of them
Occurs across networks
Attempted Fixes:
Restarting computer
Installing/uninstalling intel wifi drivers
Repairing intel drivers
System Restore
Computer Specs:
Acer Aspire V3-573G
Windows 10 - ver. 1607
Intel Proset Wireless v19.10.0
Story:
I have had this problem for around 2 weeks or so now ( I have had the computer for 2 years without problems)
It started when I noticed my computer didn't have wifi capabilities one day, I checked the drivers and sure enough they weren't there. Get a flash drive and put some intel drivers on there and sure enough the problem is solved... for a couple days. Same problem, intel setup says they are already installed, so I repair them, fixes problem. Then it happens again, repairing won't work. Uninstall and reinstall, won't fix it. Restart the computer and the drivers are there. One again, same problem, except nothing will fix it. I try everything and eventually one time I attempt to repair the driver it starts working again.
One time I watched the process in front of my eyes. First thing, the wifi stopped working and the yellow triangle appeared. Then there were no recognized networks. Then the wifi option/button disappeared. I checked the driver and it had a "code 10" error. Then the driver disappeared. This all happened within 2 minutes or so. I have tried a bunch of fixes and sometimes it will fix the problem and other times it won't. The frequency within which the driver fails has increased.I have no idea what is causing it and both the driver and my version of Windows are up to date. Ethernet capabilities work. Could it be a problem with the wifi chip internally?
Thanks!
