The device manager shows an exclamation mark on the WiFi driver. It won’t go away by uninstalling and reinstalling from the Asus web site. Resetting the computer to factory made the exclamation mark go away temporarily but the wifi adapter was set to manual and could not be turned on. Then the exclamation mark came back on the WiFi adapter.
Hi @notageekbiz , Try installing the Intel WLAN driver from here. These are the latest available Asus drivers. I noticed that the Intel driver is a later version than what is being shown on the driver download page for an Asus Q326FA. Worth a try anyway. Also do not be tempted to install any other drivers from this website at this stage , just so as to not confuse the issue if there are problems. Do one at a time.
