I have had my Acer Nitro 5 (LAPTOP-R58MORHO) for about 4.5 years. It has been going amazing so far, however, this issue has been reoccuring for nearly 2 weeks. I have tried everything in my power, contacting friends, looking at the forum, reinstalling and uninstalling my drivers, updating my drivers, making sure everything is up to date; Yet this issue continues happening!! It is so frustrating… Any amount of help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi,

    Intel AX201 adapters are problematic by nature! The solution is to try removing it and cleaning the electrical contacts of the M.2 wireless card with isopropyl alcohol and/or contact cleaner.

    In more critical cases, the only solution is to replace the wireless card with another model/brand.
