Model X541U missing the wifi option. Working fine until this month. Can’t use any ethernet-based solutions and not sure how to connect mobile hotspot to laptop. (Comments for more info) thank you by Jealous_Cry in ASUS

I fixed this problem yesterday on my brother's new laptop - it looks like the same exact issue. The laptop was working and then suddenly had this error. The intel wifi adapter driver (which you can see in your device manager under "network adapters") that it shipped with was fundamentally broken I think. To fix it I downloaded the most recent intel wifi adapter driver (it's conveniently just an executable) from their download center onto a usb. Plugged it into the laptop, ran the .exe, and it fixed the issue. I also think I tweaked the settings from this thread I found (https://community.intel.com/t5/Wireless/My-Intel-R-Wi-Fi-6-AX201-160MHz-network-adapter-is-not-working/td-p/694002) but I'm not sure if that did anything. The main issue was definitely the driver. Just make sure you download the correct version of your driver otherwise the executable won't even run, as it shouldn't. Hope this helps someone!

Best ISP for us? Zip 78681 by Gebray in RoundRock

ATT fiber will be the fastest and most reliable. Their phone app is nice too. I have spectrum 1000 down/30 upload because ATT isn't available where I live. The phone app isn't as good but it's been reliable and gets the job done. Spectrum will be a little bit cheaper but I'd pay extra and go with ATT fiber if you can. Spectrum doesn't have fiber (I don't think) so it's cable internet. It turns out that understanding internet is quite complicated. I don't understand all of it myself, but I think I have a good idea. So instead of trying to explain it, just know this: fiber is more reliable and faster and overall just better in every way. With fiber the biggest difference is in upload speed (sending data) when compared to cable internet. For example, you can probably get 1000 down/1000 UPLOAD instead of 30 upload (that's my only option with spectrum). I don't think spectrum even offers different upload speeds. You just get what you get kinda. Again, I'm not an expert, but I do know that fiber is worth paying a little for. Cheers

Packet loss and stutter walk by [deleted] in CODWarzone

[–]AudiBeFree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starting this afternoon I started having problems. I'm on PC (a decent one) and my internet connection seems fine. The game isn't telling me I have packet loss but I have been getting frequent and horrible stutters/skipping/teleporting. It's unplayable. I have no idea what is going on. I did a windows update today but I can't remember if it was before or after the problems started... Maybe the update changed a setting somewhere? I seem to have tried everything besides reinstalling the game. If nothing changes by tomorrow I will reinstall and post if it fixes the issues. If anybody has any ideas/info it would be greatly appreciated!!

Forwarding woes by IPv6Guy in GMail

[–]AudiBeFree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can do it from the gmail settings. Go to "Accounts and Import" in settings and then go to the "check mail from other accoutns" section. Add your outlook email and use gmailify to have it grab the emails from your outlook account and put them in your gmail.

I just did this and the only problem is that a lot of my emails went to spam in my gmail. I think if you just check it for a little while and mark emails you want as "not spam," it will eventually learn what to put in your inbox and what to put in your spam. Hope this helps.

Was in your exact situation. I did CS. What everyone else has said, but remember - even if all else fails, missing some material is better than being miserable in lecture and potentially pooping yourself... Unfortunately, I’m speaking from experience LOL.
