Hello babajyde

Thank you for posting on the Intel® communities.

In order to check this behavior further, could you please provide the following details:

1. Are you having issues with Wi-Fi only or with Bluetooth too (both)?
2. Is the Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 3168 the original wireless adapter that came pre-installed in your system or did you integrated/replaced?
3. When did it start to happen this issue? Did it work fine before at any time? Is this a new computer? Please provide details.
4. If this worked fine before, do you remember if this issue happened after a new Windows update or Wireless/Bluetooth driver update?
5. Is there any error message? Or is there an error code in Device Manager?
6. Router/Access point brand, model, and firmware version:
7. Have you tried a different router or Access point for testing purposes? Have you rebooted your access-point, router, modem? Please provide details.
8. How far is the computer from the router? Are there any objects that may be blocking/affecting signal?
9. Have you tried a roll back to a previous driver version for testing?

Also, please run the Intel® System Support Utility (Intel® SSU) and attach the report to this thread to gather more details about your system.

• Download the Intel® SSU and save the application on your computer: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25293/Intel-System-Support-Utility-for-Windows-
• Open the application, check the "Everything" checkbox, and click "Scan" to see the system and device information. The Intel® SSU defaults to the "Summary View" on the output screen following the scan. Click the menu where it says "Summary" to change to "Detailed View".
• To save your scan, click Next and click Save.
• Note: To upload and attach a file, use the "Drag and drop here or browse files to attach" dialog below the edit box.
