Got a difficult one for all of you... I'm stumped
I'm calling this "open software" because this is driver related.
I have a Gatway Gaming laptop that I bought 2nd hand, looks to be in great condition and has a GTX 2060 which was one of my considerations.
Anyways, after I got the laptop the network was very intermittent. It would drop packets constantly and downloads would be interrupted and it was very frustrating.
Upon a lot of research, and tests, the network card that's in the laptop is a
intel wifi 6 ax201 160mhz
I'm on windows 10 home
GPU is a gtx 2060
GWTN141 model number laptop
Although there was various complaints regarding this NIC, no one had a solution.
It happens all the time intermittently even with ethernet. Connection drops, anything that's downloaded is interrupted.
I went through various different drivers, Uninstalled all drivers, did a clean OS install multiple times, but the base driver is corrupted or doesn't work properly.
I tried ethernet, same thing.
I booted into safe mode with networking, and it worked perfectly on ethernet then, but not before.. So there's some driver that messing it up.
Right now I'm uninstalling driver after driver and going 1 after another to see if there's 1 that works.
I also loaded the most recent intel wifi 6 ax201 160mhz driver for it and did a cold reboot, discharged battery and held power for 15s-25s
Still no dice.
If anyone can please help me with this I'd really appreciate it.
