 Wifi adapter disappeared
Product: HP Pavilion G-6 2231Tx
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-Bit)

My Wifi adapter suddenly disappeared after a restart. Now it does not appear in the device manager. There is no trace of a Wifi adapter whatsoever left in my laptop. All of this happened over night when the laptop was in shutdown state. I tried installing drivers but even that did not work. I tried to run Ubuntu on a USB to check and found no trace of a Wifi adapter even on Ubuntu. Ethernet works fine but keeps refreshing itself every 10-15 minutes. I've tried restarting the system several times and that is not working. Please suggest a solution to this problem.

Laptop model no. : HP Pavilion G-6 2231Tx (HP Pavilion Gaming PC)
Windows 10

@rohitkumargangr Have you run a wireless (Bluetooth adapter) card test on your computer?

Download and install the HP Hardware diagnostics tool from this link. 

Once installed, shut down your computer.

Wait for a minute. 

Turn the computer On and keep tapping F2 repeatedly on startup to enter system diagnostics. 

Select the component test and run a wireless test on your computer. 

Refer to this HP Article for assistance. 

If the test fails or does not detect the wireless card, it could be faulty.

If it passes the tests, install all available windows and HP updates using a wired network to resolve the issue.
