Hi there,

I experience some troubles with my WIFI connection in my Nightblade Z97 and I am trying to figure out what causing it.
Problem is about constant disconnection with my network. When WIFI gets disconnected I have two situation which appear randomly where on the list with wifi networks:

1. is left only my network (all other disappear) with no internet access 
2. all of them disappear

When I have situation 1 sometimes windows troubleshoot tool is able to solve it giving back message that:
- default gateway was unavailable
or
- there is some problem with adapter or access point

However when I have situation 1 and windows cannot manage it or I have situation two only option is to reboot the system to try again. Only trouble about rebooting is that you have to use power button as otherwise system cannot be closed.

I tried already a few drivers for wifi adapater, I reinstalled system and it didn't solve the problem.
Only thing which stays unchanged is a bios version which I believe some day was updated by miserable MSI utility  updating tool. I excluded problem with modem as all other devices in my property have no problem, however I will try soon with some other modem.

In the meantime I would like to ask owners of this PC if you experience similar problems about wifi connection and what bios version do you have if not or yes.
please could you help me with this?


Thanks
Andy
 
2* Antenna are must be connected at back side.
Note: Antenna should be on accessories box.

If still,
Must be open side cover and then check antenna cable under wifi card on motherboard.

If still, If you have other wifi card, please change wifi card for checking.

Or please contact your nearest MSI branch office or local distributors for the warranty service.
You can find contact info with below link:

Hi,

As a matter of fact recently windows trouble shoot started showing another message after attempt of repairing that some cable is not correctly connected or broken. I assumed this would refer to modem rather than adapter as nothing was touched in unit. I will take a look at this adapter connection then and antenna too.

When it comes to service I already contacted it however I would like to avoid sending my machine to service located 250 miles away and waiting for repair up to 30 days. Say this is the last thing I would have to do if problem won't be fixed.

Thanks for advice.
Andy
