My PC Shut Off and Now There's No WiFi!

Hey everyone, my PC shut down unexpectedly while I was gaming, and now I can't find any WiFi options in the settings. It only shows options for ethernet and dial-up, and it keeps saying "Not connected." I'm not sure if this is a hardware or software issue since I'm on the latest version of Windows 11. Just to note, I don't have an ethernet connection available, and when I checked the Device Manager, everything looks fine with the network adaptersโ€”no missing devices or errors. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Just a heads up, be cautious if you need to adjust BIOS settings or anything like that. Always ensure you have backups of your data before making system changesโ€”better safe than sorry! You might want to check out some FAQs for Windows 11 troubleshooting as well.

Have you tried restarting your PC again? Sometimes it can be a simple driver issue. If youโ€™re using a laptop, it could also be a problem with your network card. It's worth checking!

GamerGal123: Yeah, Iโ€™ve restarted and power cycled it, but still no luck.
