I have a Peladn Wi-6 N100 MiniPC and it was running just fine before I clean installed the latest US Win 11 from a USB key.
I have only had the box for two months but I was concerned about any possible spyware and also got spooked by the Chinese Windows install which gave some system messages in Chinese rather than English.
So I made a USB install dish from the Microsoft site and installed from scratch.
Now, when I try to install my blutooth mouse and keyboard, the OS gives me a message "Please try connecting your device again".
I have deleted and reinstalled the bluetooth driver, I have turned of and on the bluetooth service and obviously toggled the bluetooth radio off and on. Nothing works. I now have to keep a wired keyboard and mouse connected to the little thing.
Any ideas?
 
Does connecting to the www using the Ethernet port help is the OS update itself and download necessary drivers for your platform?

Did your PC come with a folder with all necessary drivers for your PC when you first fired it up after your purchase?
