    Hello and thank you for any and all help or comments. I purchased said mobo back in July and always had an issue with the Wi-Fi where I need to start the pc from shutdown sometimes multiple times in order to get the Wi-Fi to connect. This happens after I leave the computer alone say overnight and try to wake it up the next day. It doesn't seem to work from restart only shutdown. I have all the drivers updates and the bios. Can anyone take a guess what's going on ?

    It sounds like your Wi-Fi adapter may not be waking properly from sleep or low-power mode, which is common on some motherboards. First, try disabling Power Saving for the Wi-Fi adapter in Device Manager (uncheck “Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power”). Also turn off Fast Startup in Windows power settings, since it can cause connection issues after sleep. If the problem continues, reinstall the latest Wi-Fi and chipset drivers from ASUS rather than using Windows updates. You can also try updating BIOS settings or disabling deep sleep (ErP). It’s likely a driver or power-management conflict rather than hardware failure.
