I was using my computer without any issues until I decided to reinstall Windows with a different version. Now, my WiFi won't connect, and I've tried everything to fix it. I've watched countless videos and read tons of forum posts, but nothing has worked. In the Network Adapters section, I can see the Wan Miniports, Realtek family controller, and a Bluetooth device, but no WiFi adapter. Here's my setup for reference:
- Operating System: Windows 11 Home
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D 8-Core 16-Thread
- GPU: GIGABYTE Gaming GeForce RTX 5090 32GB GDDR7
- Motherboard: GIGABYTE B850 GAMING WIFI6
- RAM: Team T-Force Delta RGB 32GB (16GB x 2) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR5 6000
- SSD: Western Digital WD_Blue SN580 M.2 2280 2TB PCI-Express 4.0 x4 TLC SSD
- CPU Cooler: GAMDIAS AURA GL360 V2 CPU liquid cooler All-In-One 360mm
- PSU: Thermaltake Toughpower GF3 1200W, ATX 3.0 Standard
- Case: ABS H570 Black Computer Case
I'm really at a loss here and hope someone can help me out!

Have you tried downloading the WiFi drivers directly from the GIGABYTE website? Sometimes, the drivers that come with Windows aren't sufficient or compatible after a reinstall.
I did attempt that, but GIGABYTE's installer runs every time I boot up and it requires an internet connection to continue.
