Had a old HP CD/DVD drive in the case that was used rarely. Tried to use it, just would not work. Since I also have a USB external LG drive that I bought for my laptop could use that. Decided to remove the drive.

Now here is the interesting part...also have a mobile dock installed the I use for off- line storage. The mobile dock is connected to Sata 0 &1 ports. The CD/DVD drive was in Sata 2 port. After booting back up...the WiFi suddenly started working 👍

I figure the chipset shares with the WiFi and Sata port(s) 2 and maybe 3. I have been scouring the net for a solution, and alot of other people are having the same problem. I know it works for my motherboard, maybe others.
