Tuf B850 - Plus Wifi not working

[Spaz]

Just recently got a Tuf B850 and the included wifi adaptor isn't working.  Digging around in device manager the network controller (I'm assuming my adaptor) says there are not drivers installed.  I've got Armory Crate installed (read this can cause issues), installed the Lan, Bluetooth, and Wifi drivers still nothing.  Tried installing the chipset drivers, but the thing is stuck on checking for hardware compatibility screen.  My bios is updated to the latest version and wifi/bluetooth are enabled in the bios settings.

I had this issue as well, but I believe I got the wrong version of the driver at first. I downloaded both of the drivers from Asus' support website. The driver that works on my B850 Plus Wifi now is "MediaTek Wi-Fi 7 MT7925 Wireless LAN Card", according to my Device Manager app. The driver on Asus' website is called "MTK_7921_7922_7902 WiFi driver v3.4.0.1063".

I also got my Bluetooth driver working now. The Mediatek drivers I downloaded from the ASUS website didn't work. Windows only found a generic Bluetooth device and no matter what I did it refused to change/update the driver.

The ASUS DriverHub actually solved it! It found the appropriate drivers instantly. I downloaded the app from ASUS DriverHub and checked that the feature was turned on in BIOS.

I believe that is the problem is that specific driver not being installed.  However that driver doesn't exist for Windows 10.  At least it's not on their website if it exists.  I actually got the wifi adaptor working by upgrading to Windows 11 (was just curious if it'd work).

DriverHub was automatically installed when installing Windows 11 (pretty sure it wasn't installed in 10) and installed the driver.  Not sure if I could have downloaded driverHub and it have it find the "correct" driver for windows 10.
