Windows update (24H2) causing wifi issues

Anonymous

Hi,

I installed the new windows 11 24H2 update about a week and for whatever reason my wifi drivers have stopped working (specifically the Killer (R) Wi-Fi 6E AX1675i). The wifi option itself no longer appears.

I have tried a number of the solutions listed on this forum involving troubleshooting, a network reset, entering the netsh/ipconfig commands on CMD for TCP/IP reset, uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers, restarted the router (not the modem, but I don't think this should be an issue as other devices seem to connect just fine) and nothing seems to be working. I didn't realize that I hadn't approved system restore, so I don't have a restoration point I can restore to. Uninstalling the update doesn't seem to be doing anything either (I am fairly sure that I uninstalled the correct update, but I could be wrong).

I have an Acer Swift Go 14 device (i7-1355u). I am not super technically adept, so I am not sure the following will cause any issues with connecting or not, but I have the Cisco AnyConnect Adapter driver, a VPN driver (Tunnel Bear), the Bluetooth Personal Area Network driver, a Realtek USB driver, and a bunch of WAN Miniport drivers as part of my network drivers.

Currently, I can only connect to the internet via an Ethernet connection.

Any help would be appreciated.

    I finally succeeded by starting dns client ( changing 4 to 3 with regedit). Check that service is started as well as winhttpproxy service.

    i share your pain.

    No suggestion so far has worked, For me the wifi wigit disappears, bluetooth remains, while device manager shows there is no issue with the wifi device. I have even tried a second usb external wifi, to no avail ie it shows in device manager as ok but still no wifi widgit and no internet.

    Most peoples suggestion are around an http proxy server - im not running a proxy so its not that.

    No network reset, reinstall of drivers/driver updates, router reboot, regedit helps.

    The only fix is to roll back the update, suspend it for 5 weeks, then when it reinstalls again, rollback. I have done this so many times so far.....

    Sorry I don't have a solution....I don't believe one exists for this Microsoft bug. Sorry - that doesn't help unless someone reads this and has a suggestion....
