Hi, everyone in my case the wifi card was burned. That is why no wifi network were showing. Also, laptop was lagging a lot whenever I turned on wifi. Thnx for help.

When I open my laptop's wifi it starts to lag a lot (Also it does not shows me any router network). But when I turn it off it doesn't lags.

When I opened Internet recovery it still did not showed me any network. What should I do?

In the activity Monitor there is nothing that is using any resource or network.
