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.

    Hey! I had a similar Problem.
    The Wifi wasnt showing/working and the mousepad? didnt work after the 24H2 update. (Worked Fine again when rolled back)

    Apparently it was an Issue with the AMD GPIO Controller Driver. I installed a newer version (2.2.0.134) and now it works fine again. Altough theres still minor issues with the Mousepad...

    Hope this helps!

    Besides the DHCP aspect, another thing I've come to note in relation to W11 WLAN issues involves Web Proxy Auto Detection WPAD service. Make sure this is enabled and running (services.msc), since WLAN has some new dependencies on this service since 24H2.
