So I currently own a Dell inspiron 15 7000 that I purchased in august of 2017. I currently have a problem with the Intel wireless ac-3165 network adapter. Every once in a while the network adapter chooses not to show up on device manager. Also instead of a wireless antenna icon on the bottom right. I see a local area connection icon with a red x on it. Its really frustrating and I've already installed new drivers from Intel several times already.

I sometimes see a yellow icon on the device manager on the wireless device indicating a code 10. However it isn't something that persists frequently. I also notice it on the tray icon as well (a local area connection with a red x on it.).
