My 8 year old Lenovo laptop only sees my wireless printer
My 8 year old Lenovo laptop only sees my wireless printer. It does not see the ORBI router. Any ideas as to what needs to be done? Thanks, Thomas

What orbi router is it? (model)
What wireless chip is in the laptop? (go to device manager to look it up)
What driver version is on the wireless chip in the laptop?

You're way behind on your drivers.
Get them directly from intel and try it. Intel had issues with their older drivers not showing AX networks.
