Hello everyone!
So, I'm here because I really need help.
I've just spent the whole day trying to get my ***** wifi connection to work.
All my drivers are up to date, my wifi card detects the relevant networks but when I try to connect to the secure network/Freewifi ===> We could not connect to this network...
So I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers and rebooting. I tried disabling IPv6... etc. Well, I've done most of the troubleshooting suggested by Windows.
Nothing works....
I'm reaching out to you to try to find a solution together.
Thanks in advance!

My wifi hardware: Qualcomm Atheros AR9485 wireless network adapter.

    Right-click on the Windows icon
    Open Device Manager
    Expand Network Adapters
    Right-click on your WIFI adapter (e.g., Mediatek MT6730E...)
    Properties
    Power Management
    Uncheck "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power"
