I do not see an 802.11 adapter listed in device managerDoes this mean my Broadcom wireless card has died? Wouldn't that take bluetooth with it? Any other thoughts on how I can get my internet connection again? Hello,Welcome to Microsoft Community Forum.As per the description, I understand that your computer lost Wi-Fi connectivity all of a sudden and network icon at the taskbar says “No connections available”. Mann,The adapter was not listed.
I uninstalled the ethernet adapter and re-installed it, but that's all I could do because the 802.11 device was not listed.I went to the OEM site and downloaded the latest drivers they post there. I then went to Intel's website, as another online user suggested, and downloaded the driver for the Intel WiFi Link 5100 agn. But the version they post won't install unlessyou can uninstall the old driver, which I can't do because I can't see the adapter in device manager.I would run the built-in diagnostics if there was something to run them on. If I just run the general internet connection diagnostics, it just tells me that a network cable is unplugged. Presumably because it can't see the wireless card and, so, assumesI connect only by cable. Hello,Thank you for your reply, appreciate the time taken by you in keeping us updated on the status of the issue. Do you use external Bluetooth modem to connect to wi-fi?
If yes what is the make and model of the network adapter?. Have you checked plugging the 802.11 device to a different port?. What happens when you unplug and re-plug the network adapter (dongle) to the computer? Do you get any error message?Looks like 802.11 (external network adapter) device driver is missing and causing this problem.
I would suggest you to unplug and re-plug the external network adapter (modem) and check if it tries to install the modem driver automatically. If it failsto install the driver automatically, I would recommend you to look for 802.11 network adapter driver on their website and install manually.Hope this works.
