Finding my WiFi
I purchased a new Netgear Nighthawk AX12 WiFi router to replace my older Netgear Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Got it hooked up and everything works perfect, including wifi to all my devices. Including Sony TV...
If you look around that realtek is known to have issues with AX.
Options?
1. replace the card. Usually not that hard to do. There's usually videos on youtube of how to do it with specific laptops.
2. Check with realtek on the driver version that you have to see if there's a newer one. Don't use the windows one as it tends to to be the most current. get it direct from realtek's site.
3. use a dongle as you're using. No point holding back your network because of a sketchy wifi card.
I have also went through the driver updates and uninstalling and installing.
Thank you, Mike
