WiFi stopped working on ASRock A620M PRO RS WIFI

   ASRock A620M PRO RS WIFI D5 + Windows 11.

Everything was working fine when a network connection was suddenly broken.

Looking in the device manager I can only see the famliy controller. No sign of a wifi controller. There where several devices with exclamation marks.

Installed the latest wifi drivers (and install was a success) but windows still doesn't "see" the WiFi card.

Went into BIOS and checked that WAN Radio is on. Tried toggling it and make windows re-discover it. No luck.

Anyone have any good ideas what I can do except reinstall windows from scratch?

	I have no idea if it is completly built in on the mobo or if it is a hidden M2 that was preinstalled. The driver from ASRock is called "MediaTek Wireless Lan driver ver:3.4.0.1123" and that's about all I know about it :D

	i have a similar issue but with a Wifi USB adaptors suddenly stops working. I shutdown or force shutdown PC if hung -> remove wifi usb adator -> Start PC without wifi adaptor, once its fully booted into windows, insert the adaptor in a different USB port and it automatically recognizes the adaptor and starts working. been doing this for like ages LOL.

	I do not know, if it is the same issue, as I have, but I open settings - network&internet - advanced network settings - network reset (and then reboot pc). I have a similar issue on "x870 pro rs wifi", this occured several times already (this PC was assembled 4 months ago) after playing games for 3-5 or more hours straight (when fans gets noisy, etc). I do not know, if there is some overheating due to wrong installation of smth when assembling or it's a Windows 11 issue (never had 11 before, but wifi on this motherboard is Wifi 7, and windows 10 doesnt support wifi 7, so i had to install windows 11). I mean, if it's overheating at some place of the board, it shouldnt work immediately after rebooting, right? I tried to google solutions to this problem with no luck. So I have to reset network and reboot from time to time, which is mildly annoying given how much money this whole pc costed... at least now i know my wifi password by heart... And i didnt write to ASRock support, because they require all those serial numbers from the box, and I am too lazy to go find that box in my storage room (which is mostly boxes of all home appliances and pc parts...).
