Hi, when i turn on my laptop the first time in the day the wifi board works very well but when i reboot the laptop the adapter doesn't work even doesn't appear on device manager. it's like if it had been disconnected but it is connect. Worth noting that i changed the motherboard by one that i bought on ailexpress. I tried everything but nothing seems work. I think maybe is the driver because of the chinese motherboard.

Run Extensive system test to check for hardware failures.
1. Hold the power button for at least five seconds to turn off the computer.
2. Turn on the computer and immediately press Esc repeatedly, about once every second. When the menu appears, press the F2 key.
3. On the HP PC Hardware Diagnostics (UEFI) main menu, click System Tests.
4. Click Extensive Test.
5. Click Run once, or Loop until error. While the test is running, the time remaining and test result for each component are shown on the screen.
