Incomplete installation of ASUS PCE N15 driver

Hello,

I have moved and I want to connect to Wi-Fi in the new house.
Unfortunately, during all my previous years, I was connected via ethernet, and today that is no longer possible.
When I initially bought my PC, I had included a way to connect to Wi-Fi (Asus PCE N15) but I threw away the installation disk during the move.
I then retrieved the drivers on a USB stick and transferred them to the PC (W10 64bit). During the installation, everything goes well, except when I reach the step after the restart. A window is supposed to open offering to use the Asus program, but this window never opens. Therefore, I never complete the installation nor have the possibility to continue the setup.

See step 6 of the manual.

First 6 steps

Do you have any idea for a solution?

Sincerely,

    Hello @DoublePierce StatusMember.

    The driver is on this page.

    You didn't mention your version of Windows, on the page we can see that Asus has not developed a driver for Windows 11.

      Hello Bazfile

      I wasn't clear. I am indeed on Windows 10 and not 11, and in 64 bits. And I had downloaded the corresponding driver exactly from the same page you gave me.

      It is indeed the execution of this driver that is causing the problem.

      Thank you for your response anyway.

      Hello @billmaxime StatusContributor

      I don't know where this information is located.
      When I go to the hardware properties, I have:

      manufacturer: Asus

      description: ASUS PCE-N15 11n Wireless LAN PCI-E Card

      driver version: 2023.1.1201.2014

      and a physical address.

      Best regards

    hi

    I have the same driver as on the manufacturer's site (about four days apart)

    post 1 screenshot of your device manager

    re

    on your screenshot, we can see that the Wifi device is properly installed (no ? or /!\) yellow alert

    I moved and I want to connect it via wifi in the new house.

    did you change your ISP (internet service provider)?

      Thank you for your responses.

      I will try kaneagle's solution when I get the chance, I found a workaround in the meantime, a repeater and an ethernet cable.

      Thank you for your time!
