Hi, I have the same problem, with an Asus ROG...
MediaTek MT7921 Wireless Lan Driver for Windows 11 update
People with this card probably experience disconnection and disappearance of wifi emblems on windows 11, and this is a software problem, yet there is only lenovo that has posted the new version of the software: https://support.lenovo.com/ht/fr/downloads/ds552327-mediatek-mt7921-wireless-lan-driver-for-windows-10-version-2004-or-later-thinkpad-l14-gen-2-types-20x5-20x6-l15-gen-2-types-20x7-20x8, why microsoft and other organizations have not done the same?

From Lenovo's website, you can try a slightly older version, and see if it works better. Sometimes an older version can be more stable than the latest version.
If that sitll doesn't seem to fix the issue, make sure you have BIOS and chipset all updated too. If you are already on the latest version, you can reinstall them manually from Lenovo to override the current install.

Drivers are not created by Microsoft, but are created by t hardware manufacturers. Each hardware manufacturer then can distribute their drivers to computer manufactuers to be listed. They can also publish their driver to Microsoft via Windows updates (In case you are interested in learning more about this process, Microsoft has an article here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardw...)
With that being said, Microsoft is in a passive mode here since they cannot just come up with the drivers themselves. Normally it makes better sense for computer manufacturers to keep up with these drivers. That's also why computers these days have preinstalled software from manufacturers to make sure drivers are up to date, instead of relying on Windows. I believe Lenovo is the Vantage app.
