Help with MSI Motherboard WiFi Connection Issues

-

I just got an MSI B840 P WiFi motherboard and I’m trying to set up Windows 11. However, I’m having trouble connecting to the internet. I followed the steps for the OOBE bypass, but now I can’t connect to WiFi at all. The only option I see is Ethernet, even though I have the WiFi antenna plugged in. Can anyone help me troubleshoot this issue? Thanks!

It can be frustrating dealing with MSI products sometimes. The best way to tackle your WiFi issue is to first install the necessary drivers. You can connect your PC to the internet using Ethernet temporarily. Once Windows is set up, an MSI installation window will pop up to install the drivers automatically. Just make sure to uncheck any unnecessary bloatware during the installation, like Norton Anti-virus or Voicemod. If Ethernet isn’t an option, download the drivers from MSI’s website on another device and transfer them via USB.

I had the same problem! Using Ethernet made it simple for me too. Just remember that if you can’t find the drivers online, downloading them on a USB stick is a good backup plan.

I looked everywhere for these drivers and couldn’t find them either. It was super annoying!
