My asus tuff 17 laptop has an issue after a recent windows update where the wifi adapter keeps disabling.

I have tried all the normal fixes, downloading updated drivers, uninstalling the driver and rebooting, etc and nothing works. I will have wifi connected for a random period of time and then the device will disable and I get an error 43. Then I have to disable and enable the device multiple times for it to connect again, only for it to disable again after a short period of time.

This is the device:
Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160MHz

If anyone has any idea how to help me with this issue, I would be forever grateful.

Ask me any questions so you have enough info to help me diagnose and fix this problem. I am not very computer literate...

Windows 24H2 has been causing a ton of wifi issues. If you google "Windows 24H2 Wifi" there will be some discussion with fixes you could try

This one looks easy and a bit promising:

Go to services(Search "services")



Note what these services currently are for you in case you need to change it back(Write them down in notepad, piece of paper etc.)
Change all of these services and start them:
- DHCP Client - Automatic
- DNS Client - Automatic
- Network Connections - Manual
- Network Location Awareness - Automatic
- Remote Procedure Call (RPC) - Automatic
- TCP/IP Netbios helper - Automatic
- IPsec - Manual
- Network List Service - Automatic
- Network Store Interface Service - Automatic

After you change them, restart your PC and see if it stops being disabled
