HP Recommended
Product: Pavilion p6741c
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi all,

 

Yesterday I noticed that my Wifi connection on my HP PC (Windows 10) dropped and gave me the notifiation “Not connected - no connections available”. I hadn’t done anything different so it was a bit odd. After looking through the device manager and some quick fix guides online, I uninstalled the driver to my 802.11 network adapter WLAN with hopes for it to restart on bootup.

It never did.

 

I have now gone through multiple guides online and tried all sorts of things (netcfg -d, netsh winsock reset, physically taking out my adapter and plugging it back in) all to no avail. A system recovery didn’t even work, and actually showed that the cause might have been a recent Windows update.

 

Does anyone have any idea of what I can do?? I’m in desperate need of help here as this is my only desktop on hand right now and in the time of Zoom, that’s all I have. Thanks everyone. 

For more info, I have the HP Pavillion p6741c  desktop.
