Why is my wifi adapter stuck on identifying

A couple days ago I shutdown my PC, when I turned it back on, it would connect to the internet but it won’t provide internet access displaying “no internet, secured” on the wifi tab in the bottom right. In control panel, network connections won’t stop saying “identifying”. I have tried a network reset and it did not work. I tried to run the troubleshooter and it will not work because after the network reset windows started saying that I had not activated it, and I can activate it without wifi… I clicked the get help tab in settings and half the time it says I’m connected and didn’t find any issues the other half it says can’t connect to the internet with manually assigned ip address, but I have everything set to automatic. All other devices connected to the wifi work and my isp says that there are no issues from their end.

    Extract the files from the downloaded driver folder and run AsusSetup

    I had to go get a flash drive because i have an iPhone and it wouldn’t let me transfer the file. Im trying to install the driver but im unsure how to do it. I tried watching some YouTube videos but nothing really seems applicable, do you know how i would go about installing the drivers from the flash drive?

    You can transfer from your cell phone if you can connect.

    Do you know a way I could do this without a flash drive or do I need to go get one?

    Download the network driver on another device, transfer it to your computer and install it;
