I have ASUS ROG gaming laptop with Intel wifi, I recently bought a 5ghz router and all my other devices including Android & Windows 10 easily connect to it at full speed but this device does not even find it in the wifi list. I have already updated all the drivers using the Intel DSA and I still have the same issue.

My problem was SOLVED by searching online.

 

SOLUTION: In Windows 10 WIFI option there is a "Hidden Network" option all the way in the bottom of the list of wifi connections. I manually entered the name of my 5G wifi and it finally found the connection and I connected to it.

Having this issue in Win11, solved downloading latest drivers from Intel manually because windows update doesn't 

As of today: "Intel® Wireless Wi-Fi Drivers for Wireless-AC 7265 (Rev. D), 3168 and 3165" (ID 823059 Date 5/16/2024)

Hope this solution help somebody else out there
