Why can’t I see available Wi-Fi networks on my new gaming PC?

Asked By GamerDude42 On

I just built my first gaming PC and skipped connecting to Wi-Fi during the setup. Now, I'm trying to access available Wi-Fi networks, but when I click "show available networks" under "Network and Internet Settings," it only shows a message about changing connection settings. I've plugged in a Wi-Fi adapter, but I'm unsure what's going wrong. Can someone help me troubleshoot this?

If your adapter isn't showing up in the command prompt, it may be that drivers are not installed correctly. Try visiting the manufacturer's website for your Wi-Fi adapter and download the latest drivers. After installing them, restart your PC and see if that resolves the issue.

Have you tried checking if the Wi-Fi adapter is recognized by your system? You can do this by opening the command prompt and typing `ipconfig /all`. Look for any listings under "Wi-Fi adapter" or "Wireless LAN adapter". If you don't see anything like that, it might be an issue with the adapter itself or drivers.
