No WiFi Connection on Laptop Startup: Troubleshooting Connection Issues, Driver Updates & Settings

Hi
I have a problem that irritates me more and more. Initially it was sporadic, and now it occurs daily. Well, after turning on the laptop, I can not see or cannot connect to the wifi network. After clicking "connect" several times, sometimes it works. Sometimes I have to turn off the wifi card in the network options, after a while turn on and then connects to wifi. I thought maybe windows 10 updated the driver, but not. All the time the same driver is. I didn't do any windows updates at that time. Any other device in the home connects immediately. I have "solved" this problem now: when I finish work, before shutting down the system and laptop, I turn off the wifi card. The next day, after turning on the laptop and loading the system, I turn on the wifi card and ... connects to the network the first time. It annoys me a bit, I would like everything to connect immediately after turning on the laptop and the first connection. The "connect automatically" option does not help. I always have to turn the card off and on. I tried to update the driver but it says that I have current. What to do ?

Install inssider 2.x, scan the WIFI network, show results, enter the network name.

does it have to be version 2.x? I have version 4.x on the disc from some newspapers
I am asking because I managed (at my age it is a feat) to find the version 2.x but during installation I write that some fremwork 3.5 is required and if I download it when I click, I write that it cannot download
can try this 4.x?

4 I was able to install it and it looks like this: (my network is Janusz and grazyna) please do not laugh at the network I thought of it

There can be several reasons for this. M.in:
-weak signal
-card driver does not work 100% correctly with this particular router (what?), given encryption, on a given channel.

Let him write, and if you don't check another one, you won't find out.

Personally, I have a Belkin G PCI-E card that works 100% correctly under linux and behaves like that under W7 - it connects as it pleases, wi-fi sees once, sometimes not.
By. me OS driver conflict with ... router.
+ you have windows 10 (in other words - "there may be problems")

In this version you will also need fremwork - besides above version 2 the program is paid (probably trial).

You can manually download the appropriate framework, but @bogiebog it's probably about
signal strength
channel
other disruptive networks
If you are able to eliminate these factors / provide helpful information, then you don't need inssider.

What you can do now is change the channel and disable encryption diagnostics.
And the swap driver.

I was able to install version 4 because I have buy versions from some newspapers. I uploaded the scan above but what does this scan mean? I don't know what's going on.
I changed the channel to the one that was least crowded. The application provided by phone and what channel it was and I did not know if it was good.
On the other hand, if jeslikanal would be bad, why do others connect? on logic they would also have problems and everyone else (laptop, phone) connects immediately

thanks for this link about the drivers but I will show what else I am so weak to look for drivers myself, I will think about something and old man without a computer

In the router, in the WIFI settings, change the channel width to 20Mhz.

What other values can you choose from under "channel width"?

No, it's only 20 and 40
I changed to 20, restarted my laptop, can't see wifi at all.
So that's not it
after switching the card off and on, he can immediately see the network and log in nicely.
I would try with this driver but I will not find it. Would somebody link my driver for my card? What would I have to provide?

I have such equipment:



drivers that I currently use are downloaded from the laptop manufacturer's website by the SNID (acer) code so they are exactly for this model. After uploading from windows 10's hand, despite the windows recognized the card, I dropped the wedges of the manufacturer's drivers.

I was also afraid of this mule because I saw how it goes on laptops (I used windows7 before) but after changing the disk of a bad word I can not say everything is in a fraction of a second, only the wifi is not surprising for 1 time wrrrr

Something occurred to me. And can it be that the newer driver is not the best and has errors? maybe some previous one would be better?
Secondly, my driver shows that it is from April and that there are no newer ones but ... on the card manufacturer's website it is probably newer

maybe try to download it is meaning?

updates for this device:
Unfortunately, after downloading a newer driver from the card manufacturer's website, it turned out that there is no setup icon in hand. I read and know that you need to enter the path to this catalog and to update it. The problem is that when I give the path to the directory in the driver update option, the system prints out that the best driver is already installed
I remembered that I also stopped windows updates (usually updates silent) but since I have fast SSD I turned them on. Sucks updates can help.

Update: (Maybe someone will be useful)
I did something like that. I uninstalled the driver + software from the network card (I had it from the laptop manufacturer's website) and then reinstalled the card but gave the path only to the driver, I did not install the software (everything from the laptop manufacturer's website). So far, half a day, yesterday and today it works every morning after turning on the laptop and even connects itself. We'll see what happens next.

And in the first post or the mru-mru about this manufacturer's software, so that it would not be too easy to solve this problem?

No, but for me as a 60-year-old layman, there is no difference between a Windows driver and a manufacturer driver (often clicked through setup and automatically included software). However, as it turns out, there is a difference. For lack of knowledge, I did not give everything exactly because I had no idea that it matters. The most important thing was that it succeeded
Thanks anyway for the advice.
