    You just bought it? have you tried to contact your seller? I don't think you would have a wireless icon if the driver were not installed is it WIFI or WWAN you are trying to use?

    Are there any yellow exclamation point bubbles in device manager?

    Did you accidentally turn off the wifi switch below the ON/OFF switch?

    I'm having this same issue with my CF-C1. There is an exclamation point in device manager.

    After a sleep/wake, it magically works for a little while, then switches off.

    The wifi switch is on.

    :confused:

    As always, in order to get "fast help" response you need to post your system's Model Number ( CF-30xxxxxxx) to the thread.

    Is this on one wireless router or several. IOW router setting or TB setting but first go into bios and re-set to default. Make sure WLAN is enabled in bios.

    Try using ethernet to install the latest intel drives from intel's site. It worked for my CF-C1.
