Thought it would have been turned to more modern UEFI system firmware instead. You may be having this issue.ĭidn't know that this device came still with legacy BIOS. In BIOS, there is a setting to enable LAN/WLAN switching which automatically disables the wireless card when an ethernet cable is connected and visa versa.

Update 1903 cannot be removed as it does not show in the windows update list.

No one can tell me how long this has been running this way and why. One detail: The laptop has been stationary for a long time and been using a wired connection. It sees wireless networks and just turns off, no exclamation mark or what so-ever. The issue I am seeing is that the WiFi turns off within 5 seconds after turning it on.
