Intel WiFi requiers reboot

CLL90 — Sun, 19 Apr 2026 17:40:20 GMT

This is happening again. It happened a year or two back, went away, and now is back.

Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6E AX211 160Mhz Requires restart.

Never got an answer any other time I posted this problem so do not think I will get any now.
It tried many different things last time and nothing fixed it, it eventually just stopped.

This pops up about every other time I start the computer. Sometimes it takes two or three starts before I see it.

Hello CLL90,

Thank you for posting on Intel Community Forum.

I can see you're experiencing a recurring issue with your Intel® Wi-Fi 6E AX211 160MHz adapter requiring restarts. To further troubleshoot the issue, kindly follow the outlined steps below.

1. Update to Latest Driver: Download and install the latest Intel Wi-Fi driver 24.30.1

2. Perform Clean Driver Installation

Uninstall current wireless drivers completely
Clear temporary files
Install fresh drivers

3. Install all pending Windows Updates

4. Update system BIOS to latest version (contact your system manufacturer)

To address the issue properly, please share the information below.

1. Is this the original adapter that came pre-installed in your system, or have you changed/installed a new adapter recently?

2. Which Wi‑Fi driver version is currently installed on your system??

3. Have you tried both Intel generic driver and OEM driver?

4. Do you remember if this issue happened after a new OS update or Wireless driver update?

I look forward to your response.

Best regards
