Hello, I have been have some strange wifi problems with my asus zenbook pro model UX501J (UX501VW almost identical) it has an intel duel band wireless-AC 7260 wireless card in it, for some reason as of a few days ago after trying to cast to a miracast device my wi-fi card has been acting strange at first I though it was the drivers gone bad for some reason so I reinstalled the drivers from scratch and it sorta worked but when I tried it again I notice something strange right after I uninstalled the drivers by uninstalling the device in device manager if I refresh devices all the drivers have re installed them selfs…… so I uninstalled them in safe mode and they didn’t reinstall in safe mode… so I found the drivers and deleted them my self and restarted they came back almost instantly but the wifi was working fine…. so I though I had fixed it but after I turned it on the next day the wifi was all wack again…. the problem I keep haveing is after I restart the computer after it self reinstalls the wifi drivers the wifi brakes in a strange way and that is that out of the 5-8 wifi nets I normally see it now can only see 1-3 of them (there are 2 routers in my house on different channels 1 has 2.4 and 5.0 separated) and they all have very low strength from in the same room, the strange thing is is when I connect to one it suddenly gets full signal strength and the others just die out completely and if when im in my room (opposing the side of the house with the routers) if cant find any wifi networks but if i then go back into safe mode and uninstall the drivers again and reboot it can see and reconnect just fine until the computer restarts… also all other wifi devices work fine in my room with 40 Mbs down 5 Mbs up so… any ideas?
Hi, Whose WiFi drivers are you using, Windows, Asus or Intel? Presumably you’d think that the Asus drivers would be the best, it is after all their product that the WiFi has to work with. Here is a link to the most up to date Asus drivers for Win 10 http://ivanrf.com/en/latest-asus-drivers…
Run any program to fix your registry. It will solve your problem.
Purchased a 11AC USB 2 band wifi adapter, 600 mbps with a hi gain antenna for less than $10 USD on eBay. Installed the adapter and required software which provided the option to use the original internal wifi or that provided by the wifi adapter. Wifi adapter performance is greatly improved over the internal antenna/circuitry. Now when encountering even slightly weaker signals, connection with the adapter is good whereas connection is often not possible with the original circuitry/antenna.
