Wifi network option disappears

[ahn20014]

The Wi-Fi network option in my settings disappears after the laptop goes to sleep and wakes back up. The laptop needs to be shut down and restarted to reappear. If you press the restart option it won't show up.

Hi @ahn20014,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

You can check the drivers updates: HP Customer Support - Software and Driver Downloads 

Try these steps: 
 

Go to Device manager > select the WIFI drivers under network adapter> Right click go to properties  > Under properties go to Power Management Tab> Uncheck  "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". 

If issue persists, continue with the below steps: 

If your computer has a wireless key or button on or near the keyboard and the wireless activity light is off or amber in color, then press the key or button to enable your wireless adapter. This key might be the F10 key, F12 key or labeled with a symbol of an airplane. 

If wireless activity comes on or the activity light turns blue, you have enabled wireless on your system. Try connecting to the Internet again. If problems persist, continue using these steps. 

If your computer does not have a wireless key or the wireless activity lights remains off or orange, then continue using these steps.
