[SOLVED] B550 Gaming Edge Wi-Fi Troubleshoot please help

[ray.perez001]

I just bought this motherboard yesterday. Computer turned on fine but after downloading windows it does not recognize the Wi-Fi on the motherboard. I don’t have access to the Ethernet because I am renting in an apartment and all I have access to is the Wi-Fi. Is there any way to obtain the Wi-Fi to download all my drivers and what not? I can’t do anything without an Internet connection.

Well to connect to tbe wifi, you need the drivers first. It is in the support page for your mobo.
In the box, is there a DVD with the drivers ? You need an externat DVD reader, but no access to the internet.
How did you download windows without internet access ?

I obtained it onto a flash drive and plugged it in. Unable to complete any windows updates though.

Do you have a wifi dongle you could use to intially get online then download the wifi drivers from your motherboards support page? Or using the dongle, download Intel support assistant and it will automatically download the correct wifi drivers for you.
