In my windows 11 laptop I'm unable to use wifi. It disappears sometimes and stucks me. The only way to get connection is to restart my laptop. That too only works only a few times..

    1

    Click your Start Button, type cmd and choose Command Prompt

    Run this command and hit Enter:

    ipconfig /flushdns

    Run this command and hit Enter:

    ipconfig /registerdns

    Run this command and hit Enter:

    netsh winsock reset

    Run this command and hit Enter:

    netsh int ip reset

    Close Command Prompt

    Open the Settings App

    Go to Network and Internet

    Click the Network Reset button

    Wait for your PC to automatically restart after 5 minutes, do not manually restart your PC.

    If that process does not resolve the problem, the best option is to go to the support page for your laptop on the manufacturers website to download and reinstall (not update) the version of WiFi (WLAN) drivers they provide for your laptop model.

    If you have any difficulty locating that support page, click your Start Button, then just type msinfo and press Enter, please provide a screenshot of the resulting System Information window.
