Wifi driver not working in 15r074tu model after windows 11 update

[Lokanath19]

Hi,

I am holding a hp 15R074TU model with me. A day back I have updated from windows 10 to windows 11. Which is ofcourse not supported model . As my OS is installed on SSD so I find it super fast on my system. Have checked all software, camera, audio all works perfectly. Only problem I see is wifi driver may be not supporting. Ralink RT3290 802.11 bgn wifi adapter is there.

What is the supported version I can try with? Or I have to roll back to windows 10? I am keeping external usb wifi adapter open as last option. Guide me if anyone have fixed this issue.

Hi:

I would just use a USB Wi-Fi adapter.

The Bluetooth doesn't work anymore either, correct?

This is the only W10 driver released to HP by Ralink/Mediatek and it is 10 years old.

5.0.57.0

Naturally there wasn't a W11 driver released.

You could, if you are willing to take the notebook apart, replace the Ralink card with this model and have both the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth work on W10/W11.

Below is the link to the service manual, where you can find the Wi-Fi card removal and replacement procedure:

I did a step back to windows 10. Thanks for your help.
