Model: Archer TX3000E  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hello everyone,

 

OS: Windows 10 x64 (newest edition)

Motherboard: Asrock P67 Pro3

Adapter: TP-LINK Archer TX3000E/AX3000

 

I have recently acquired the aforementioned network adapter - It has worked flawlessly on a fresh installation of WIN10 x64 however after updating the system to the newest version I can only access Bluetooth but the Wi-Fi has completely disappeared - the system does not even show any available networks.

 

I have tried changing the PCI-E slots, updated to newest BIOS and installed the newest Wi-Fi drivers in WIN10 safe mode. Basically I tried everything that had been mentioned here: https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/233394

 

I am clueless as to what can be done but my guess is that it must be a conflict of Motherboard/Win10 Update/Adapter.

 

Any help? Pretty please?

@Kevin_Z

Thank you for the answer.

 

To anyone interested I have found a solution which seems to work for my motherboard (Asrock P67 Pro3) and WIN10 x64 20H2 (version 19042.630) :

 

1. I have unplugged the TX3000E adapter from the motherboard completely.

2. I have completely uninstalled all Wi-Fi and Bluetooth drivers (INTEL PROSet/Wireless) and rebooted the PC.

3. I have downloaded the INF ver:10.1.1.8 driver (Windows 10 x64) dedicated for my motherboard (Asrock P67 Pro3) at https://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/P67%20Pro3/index.pl.asp#Download

4. I have reinstalled the Wi-Fi driver from the CD that came with the TX3000E adapter.

5. I have shut down the PC and plugged the TX3000E adapter into another PCI-E 4x slot and connected the power to F_USB on motherboard (PS: Make sure that the antenna cables are firmly attached to the adapter).

 

Works like a charm (both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth). Rebooted multiple times to make sure that nothing funny is going on. Hope that this helps anyone who is facing a similar issue.
