[SOLVED] [Solved] My wireless adapter Realtek 8822BE error code 45 despite being built-in

[M.Dhenis]

My Wireless adapter Realtek 8822BE currently have a code 45 error despite being built-in into the motherboard (its a Laptop Asus Tuf 505DD), I have tried to reinstall its driver but still don't work, sometimes it will run but on disable mode when I try to enable it, it throws error code 10 and I haven't been able to fix it, I've tried to rollback to earlier driver but still doesn't work, I've tried SFC still doesn't work, I've check network status in BIOS and it's okay, I've check additional power plan but still doesn't work, I've used windows troubleshoot and still doesn't work, I've updated my windows still doesn't work.

The problem occurred when I shutdown my laptop then windows installing its update then when I boot my laptop again the wireless adapter doesn't work after I check device manager the device property say code 45 device is unplugged and it's confuses me how can a built-in adapter unplugged

If you have solution please help, I can't just reinstall it cause there's too many important program and configuration and currently I'm in a place where internet is very slow

Double check that your laptop only has one network adapter enabled.

Only one network adapter (either wired or wireless as desired/required) should be enabled. Not both wired and wireless at the same time.

Run "ipconfig /all" (without quotes) and post the results.

Try disabling all network adapters and then reboot the laptop.

Next enable and reconfigure the wireless network adapter.

It's VPN and the ethernet realtek that shows up, the wireless realtek doesn't detected because it's somehow unplugged hence code 45

Check the network configuration for your VPNs.

Default Gateway, subnet mask.

They're all unplugged cause I don't use it, I used a modem right now to temporarily connect to the internet, here's the config:

Wired connectivity appears fine.

Router (at 192.168.1.1) is providing the laptop a DHCP IP address of 192.168.1.24 (subnet 255.255.255.0) with a 12 hour lease time.

So if you want to (or are required to) use wireless then the wired network adapter on the laptop must be disabled.

Then enable and configure the laptop's wireless adapter to match the configuration of your wireless network via the router.

What make and model modem? What make and model router (or modem/router) if combined?

Normal connections being (line diagram):

ISP ---- > Modem ------->Router ------> wired devices and ~~~~> wireless devices.

Edit and correct my line diagram as necessary.

Only one router should be enabled to provide DHCP IP addresses.

If the modem is combined device then disable its' DHCP functions and configure all network devices to obtain a DHCP IP address via the router.

I've done that more than 5 times cause it happened before but all I need is restart and all back to normal, but this time I restarted many times still the problem doesn't solved, the problem is the wireless adapter somehow disconnected perhaps from driver malfunction so I reinstalled the driver yet still doesn't work, I downgraded the driver to the old working version and still windows can't recognize it, the adapter doesn't show up in any setting even driverpack and driverboost tag the adapter wireless as unplugged, I can't configure the wireless adapter cause the system can't recognize it, I need to use modem as temporary measure to connect to the internet but it's not permanent solution cause the modem is a bit old and constantly disconnect when it move even 1mm

Thank God,
I've finally resolved my problem so I will post my finding so when other encounter similar error they able to potentially fix their problem and not end up in 7 hours of agony like I did:

Make sure to do this beforehand, these are possible solution that I obtain from the internet
First:
Reboot your computer if it's doesn't work try cold booting if it's doesn't work try power cycle

Second :
try to update your driver then restart, doesn't work try reinstalling it from device manager by click uninstall then restart

If guide above doesn't work (like what happen to me) then try to do what I do
What I've done is:

1. disconnect any modem you have connected
2. try to get windows recognize the device even if it's error code 10, as long as windows able to detect it it's okay (how I do it: by bruteforce, keep uninstall driver in device manager and restarting until windows recognize it)
3. I install driverpack so it'll be able to detect the device and get the proper and latest driver
4. make sure the driver installation successful the do a power cycle (if you're on laptop shutdown your laptop by holding the power button until it's off but don't let it go, instead keep holding it for another 15-20 second)
5. boot/start your pc and hope it fixed the problem

although I can't guarantee whether the step above is working on other computer, my problem were the wireless adaptor sometimes throw code 45 error and code 10 error

Thank You Ralston 18 for the support
