Microsoft Windows 11

I replaced the pre installed ssd with another ssd and installed windows 11 on it. For some reason now I can’t connect to wifi. I know it’s not a hardware issue because I took the old ssd and booted it up and it could still connect to wifi, the problem is just with the new one. Help!!!

Hi:

 

If you are stuck at the W11 setup screen where you are asked to connect to a network, and there's no Wi-Fi, see this link for how to continue setting up W11 without internet access:

Most likely your PC has a Mediatek Wi-Fi adapter for which W11 does not have an in-box driver, so after you get W11 set up, you can install the driver for that model Wi-Fi card from your notebook's support page.
