How to activate motherboard built in wifi.

[Zach7777]

I just finished building my second pc, but don't know how to activate the motherboards built in wifi. Any help would be appreciated.

What motherboard do you have? Windows should've gotten the driver for you but, if it didn't, you'll need to go to your motherboard's support page and get it from there.

Also, make sure to attach the antennas to your motherboard.

Step 1. What motherboard do you have

Step 2. Listing what motherboard you have would really help

install the driver, that should turn on the wifi.

if not there should be an on off switch in the bios.

You can grab it from here: https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/MPG-Z390-GAMING-EDGE-AC#undefined

Just select your OS and the WiFi driver will be under LAN Drivers. You'll need the one called Intel WiFi driver.

 

While you are there you'll need the Chipset and the On-board Audio drivers as well.Intel

I notice that this is quite an old thread, but I am having next to the same issue on my second pc build and none of these tricks seem to have worked.(or I have failed to do them correctly) I have the MSI B560i Motherboard and I could use some help fixing WIFI connection issues
