My problem is that I'm in windows 11 on my Lenovo laptop, but after another beta update every time I turned on my laptop it would be disconnected from my Wifi and when I connect it to my Wifi it says connected no internet. So then I restart my laptop and it starts working again, but then later on the day the problem happens again.

    Hopefully, MS will be working on the Wi-Fi problem as there seems to be various computer makes having similar issues.

    We might have to wait for a fix other than the work arounds listed in this thread.

    I have a Lenovo Legion 5 Pro. WiFi worked just fine in November when I set up the machine. I packed it away and gave the laptop to my son for Christmas.

    On Christmas day, I renamed device via System settings. Reboot required. After reboot the laptop could NOT detect ANY WiFi networks...of which there are about 8 around us here. None were detected.

    I tried everything I could think of. Reset network devices etc, etc, nothing worked. I had to use my mobile phone hot-spot tethered via the USB cable to get internet. Even then it had trouble connecting to the tethered connection, but once connected, the connection seemed stable.

    I lodged a Levovo Repair Ticket.

    4 days later, I reboot the laptop, just to have another go at fixing it, and to my surprise, the WiFi was working.

    Today, Lenovo support said that it was a driver issue, but no driver update has occurred since the problem arose.

    Lenovo also said that Windows 11 is "unstable" and a BIOS reset should fix the problem (that seemed to be already fixed).

    Performed a BIOS reset, and the problem is still fixed.

    Lenovo said that I should expect lots of updates in the near future from Microsoft, as the OS is very buggy and they are seeing a lot of problems.

    Lenovo said that given the 'renaming of the device' seems to have triggered the problem, that is must be a bug in Windows 11.

    Basically Lenovo are all 'hands off - it's a Microsoft problem' aside from simple driver installs and BIOS resets.

    Network Adapters:

    Realtek PCIe GbE Family Controller - Driver Version 10.50.511.2021

    I'm having a similar issue. It says I'm connected to wifi, but not able to actually connect...? I tried connecting to different wifi, same issue. Have to restart computer. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't 🤷🏻‍♂️ this issue started after I updated to Windows 11...ImageImage

    I have had a similar issue... since the last 4 days, my wireless network is so unstable that I could not even work... I have tried almost everything but still, the issue persists. Hope it would get resolved after the next update...
