Win 11Pro v24H2 build 26100.3775
I've been connected to the internet through an ethernet port for ages. I now have access to a 2Gb/s WIFI fiber optic network. However, I cannot find the Win 11 Pro WIFI settings anywhere. I've got a Gigabyte X870 Aorus Elite WIFI mobo but no WIFI appears in the network settings.

How do I get WIFI?

First Make sure the drivers are installed HERE: X870 AORUS ELITE WIFI7 Support | Motherboard - GIGABYTE Global

NOTE, there are several different vendors for the WIFI module, check to see in "device manager" to see if it is identified there or not, or if you have unidentified hardware.

we can move forward from there

Also check in your BIOS and see if the WiFi is enabled.

Checked the BIOS and there was no WIFI options. Installed the two drivers from GIGABYTE and WIFI is now displayed and usable. Thanks everyone.
