I should know this stuff... anyway, have you tried Ebay? If that doesn't work, see if they have one at a local store or something.

Have you tried the basics like network reset, hard reset, etc?
yeah ive turned wifi on and off i’ve restarted, shut down, did sleep mode i’ve done the indian guy tutorials
OK then specifically network reset. That specific thing. Have you done a network reset? Sometimes my laptop does this stuff and that fixes it.
What, resetting the router?
Nah, it's a function in Settings on the computer. Go to network/internet and it's in the advanced settings. It resets network adapters to factory settings, which in my experience doesn't cause it to forget wifi passwords or anything, just ... clears it up ig. It's a perfect fallback when you're having particularly obnoxious connection issues. When complete you should be able to reconnect to wifi no problem. Note tho, your computer has to restart to do it, so if/when you do it, save your files and whatnot beforehand.

Have you tried deleting it in device managrr and restarting to reinstall it? That usually works for me. You'll have to re-enter the password(s) for the internet, or restart a couple times to get it back potentially.
I don't think it's possible to lose connection permanently if you do this, but err on the side of caution.

Ok so what do I disable (or uninstall idk pls specify)? Theres an Intel one, a Realtek one and the rest are labelled as WAN miniports

Try ipconfig /all in cmd
Look for the section that says Wireless LAN adapter Wi-fi to see which it is.

Yeah, then restart. It works for me, at least, although my laptop is in poor condition so it can take 7+ restarts sometimes for it to reappear. Or I have to shut down & let it rest for a few hours...or maybe it'll BSoD and be right as rain when you restart it...

Oof. I dunno then. Did you check to see if the adapter got an update recently? Not that it's outdated, but that the update wasn't a good one?

Choose updates & security in settings. You can view the most recent updates that were done.
