You would check for BIOS update?? seriously? that's like selling a car with a faulty exhaust and telling the customer how to fix it... joke!
Windows 11 Wifi Problem
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.

2022-01-31T17:00:43+00:00 Does Microsoft expect all it's users to be IT engineers? releasing semi finished product and asking people to fix it themselves??

2022-01-27T10:12:28+00:00 My network card is an Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160MHz and I'm running on a Fujitsu U7310.
I had two issues:
Issue 1: having to connect manually every time I start the PC.
Issue 2: constant disconnects and having to manually reconnect.
After updating to Windows 11 I lost wi-fi connection once every 5 to 30 minutes and had to manually reconnect every time.
What fixed the constant disconnecting (issue 2) for me was downgrading the network card driver to an older version. Previously I had driver version 22.90.0.5 from 27.09.2021 (I tried installing a newer one that was posted here, but it didn't take - might give it another try later on), but after downgrading to driver version 21.60.0.5 dated 11.11.2019 I haven't lost connection again. However, I still have to connect manually after turning the PC on, so there are still some kinks to work out.
The proposed fix by Ackphfft didn't work for me - for either driver version. I didn't test if it affected the constant disconnects on the newer version, but neither versions connected automatically when I started the PC after holding the off-button for a whole minute.
So issue 1 remains unfixed for the time being, but I'll be back if I find a solution.
TL;DR: downgrade the network driver version if you keep disconnecting.

2022-01-26T22:30:35+00:00 I just had this exact issue and tried what you suggested. Worked like a charm, thank you so much!
I really hope they update their useless fix suggestions with what you said. I literally tried a dozen different fixes and this is the only one that worked.

2022-01-26T22:24:17+00:00 I had this issue before Christmas and it fixed itself after a day. Now having the same issue again, though the wifi is missing entirely. Ethernet works for some reason.
I can't believe one of the biggest tech companies in the world has clearly known about this issue for months and have no solution. What a joke. I'm rolling back to Windows 10.
