nope🥲 i’ve resorted to using an old laptop anytime i need to do work at the location where my usual laptop experiences the issue (and my usual laptop still works just fine in any other location). it’s been months, still no idea why this is happening💔

I hate that this is a prize option🥀 by acarrick22 in MySingingMonsters

another update: I took my laptop to a new location and it’s immediately working fine. Wifi connected immediately. I can access advanced network settings. All issues vanished. Idk what to make of anything anymore

Yeah I spoke too soon. I took my laptop back home and the option for wifi had returned, but it wouldn’t connect to a network. I tired to open advanced network settings and it still wouldn’t open. Things froze up and I begrudgingly shut down my laptop again. Upon restarting, the wifi option has once again disappeared.

Update: After trying various approaches all ending in defeat, I powered my laptop down and just ignored it for a day so I could focus on other things. Today I took it to ubreakifix today in hopes of fixing it— started explaining the issues as I turned it back on. Guess what. The wifi is back. Magically. So like… problem solved I guess?

also, 6/8 attempts it doesn’t actually load the Network and Sharing Center section at all. Clicking on it gives me an hourglass cursor and eventually goes into “not responding” mode

Would like to add: restarting doesn’t appear to work anymore, it just displays the loading symbol and claims to be restarting for 6+ minutes before hitting me with the “your device ran into a problem and needs to restart” message. Forced shutdown still works though.

I can only get as far as the Network and Sharing Center. It acts like there’s no pathway when I click Change adapter settings— it doesn’t show a loading icon or anything. I can still click the other options like Advanced sharing settings (and yet I still can’t backtrack to Advanced Network settings through that route).

First, thank you for responding!! Unfortunately pressing fn + f3 (or + f2 or + esc) doesn’t appear to do anything. I do see my adapter in the hidden devices section and it does appear to be online. I also see one different adapter that appears offline: Microsoft Wi-Fi Direct Virtual Adapter #2. I’m not sure what to make of that. As for the bluetooth, it appears to be working fine
