Hey All!

I’ve been putting together a new rig and I have encountered an issue I haven’t seen before. Basically, my computer is strung together and I am navigating through windows 11 setup. I am at the step “Let’s connect you to a network”. I am plugged into ethernet, but also have the Asus Prime Z790-A WiFi with the antenna connected.

I first thought this was a firmware issue, so I updated my BIOS which was out of date by a handful of months. The issue persisted.

I looked online for solutions and most people use Command Prompt to end the task of a process called “Network something” I tried that, and it will not get me past the step, it will instead only have a retry button and proceed to take me to the same screen.

I thought it could possibly be the drivers, but I can’t install ASUS’ LAN and WiFi Drivers from BIOS, unless I can and don’t know how to do it. I could theoretically download those drivers from the command prompt in the setup, but I haven’t seen anyone demonstrate that so it has me a little nervous.

Let me know if you can help me out, thank you.
