A6210 wifi adapter issue

I use the 16210 wifi adapter to help with wifi speeds but when I restarted my PC it was suddenly not getting any internet the only solution I have been able to get is waiting it out but how do I manually fix this?

    It is down to Windows to manage the A6210 and its wifi connection.

     

    If you also have a wired connection, Windows is likely to prefer that. You will have to tell it to connect to the wifi in Network and Internet settings. (That's Windows 11.)
