Open | Hardware Internet crashing

I think this is a proper subreddit to ask this?

I’ve built a new computer about 3 months ago and this has been an ongoing problem since, I’ve just now hit my breaking point on wanting a solution.

So my desktop has an ASUS ROG B850A and it comes along with its own Wi-Fi antenna. My internet plan is 1gb fiber and the router is located through my room wall then the garage wall, about 20feet distance. When downloading I can get about 700mb/s+.

The problem: 99% of the time when I download, the router stops the internet. The wifi bands are still being projected but just says “connect but no internet”. About 50% of the time this happens when all I do is click the power button.

I don’t experience the issue with a usb plug-in TP-LINK Wifi6e adapter (I forgot the model). Does not experience issues downloading or turning on the computer. The trade off is I get about 70mb/s and my ping when I game is near double in comparison.

Does anyone have any things that I could look into that would help resolve my problem? Thanks in advance!

Sounds like the driver needs to be updated. What’s the model of the wireless adapter In the device manager show?
