Hey guys! Let me just preface that I've tried pretty much every single thing I can find on this issue on the internet, barring actually changing my wireless network adapter, which I'm not sure will actually fix the issues I'm having.
PC Specs:
ASUS Z87-Pro with integrated WiFi (using the Qualcomm Atheros AR946x Wireless Network Adapter)
Intel i5 4670K
ASUS GTX 770 DCU-II
List of solutions I've tried:
What really puzzles me is that my network adapter is able to connect to my phone's hotspot and get internet connection that way, however, it just refuses to connect to my home's broadband router, saying "Can't Connect To This Network.". This is also the reason why I'm apprehensive as to getting a new Network Adapter as if it's working when connected to my phone, there must be some problem that causes it to simply not connect to my Router.
Any help rendered will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you for reading!
- I'm able to connect to my router from my phone, iPad, laptop, every device other than my PC itself.
- I haven't tried Ethernet as the PC is physically in another room from my router (however, it has been in the same place for the past 3-4 years and I haven't had a single problem with the distance from the router for the whole time I've had this PC)
- The WiFi worked until yesterday, when it just refused to connect to the network.
- I've tried to turn on the WiFi Hotspot from my phone, and my PC connects to it perfectly fine without any problems and I'm able to access the internet using the WiFi Hotspot from my phone.
- I've keyed in the password to my router at least 10 times and there is little chance I got the password wrong as I tried keying the same password on my phone

List of solutions I've tried:
- Using command prompt with admin permissions to "ipconfig /release and ipconfig /renew" as well as some other "netsh" commands, none did anything to help and it just said that "No operation can be performed on Wi-Fi while it has its media disconnected)
- Booting up into Safe Mode with Networking to try to connect to the network (so no it's not a problem with a program blocking my connection)
- Every solution as stated on this webpage http://windowsreport.com/windows-10-cant-connect-this-network/, uninstalling and letting windows automatically install my Wireless Adapter Drivers, Going to the ASUS page to get the latest drivers for my motherboard's WiFi adapter, disabling IPv6 protocol, etc. (However, I can't seem to change the bandwidth as to which my Network Adapter is operating at)
- Running Window's Diagnostics just tells me to connect to a WiFi network, followed by telling me to connect an Ethernet Cable
