Problem with the driver for the wifi adapter
Hi, I was experiencing issues with my network with a secured connected network but no internet. Stupid me decided to ask ai for help and i followed a few steps to try solve the issue:
Command prompt as admin
Ipconfig /release
Ipconfig /renew
Ipconfig /flushdns
Netsh winsock reset. I then restarted immediately after.
When my laptop restarted, I now dont see a wifi or bluetooth option in the taskbar. Looking at Network Connections, my Intel(R) Wireless-AC 9560 160Mhz is enabled, however when I diagnose it says Windows couldn't automatically bind the IP protocol stack to the network adapter.
Also looking at events in the devices properties, I have apparently done 'device deleted', then ' device configured (oem37.inf)'.
I am using windows 10. Is this in any way recoverable? I cannot test with an ethernet cable and I don't know much about networking. Will i have to recover my laptop to a previous save/state(preferrably not) or is there another solution? Have I destroyed my device entirely? (I hope not)
Any help is appreciated
Btw to clarify, I can see flight mode on my taskbar but there's no wifi or bluetooth. Please let me know if you have any questions.
