If you have recently upgraded from previous versions of Windows then it’s possible that the old drivers will not work with the new Windows and hence the issue. The main cause of this issue seems to be outdated, incompatible or corrupted Network Adapter drivers. No Network Adapters showing in Device Manager.Network adapter missing in Device manager.These are the reasons behind the Network Adapter missing issue: In short, when you click on the Wireless icon on the system tray there won’t be any device listed in order to connect to the Internet and if you open Device Manager then you won’t see the Network Adapter tab. Easy and I hope I just saved you some hours of troubleshooting.If you don’t see Wireless Adapter under Network Connections neither there is a Network adapter tab under device manager then it seems like your Network Adapter is missing or not detected on your Windows 10 which is a serious issue because you won’t be able to access the Internet until the issue is resolved. Go back to your devices and projector page – now you will find the “add wireless adaptor”. It turned out it was all related to my Surface Pro 3 having a Cisco VPN client installed.įIX: Navigate to your WIFI network setup and remove “Deterministic Network Enhancer”. That is why I will share the answer here. The solution is simple but took me a lot of time to figure out, as the product is brand new and don’t have its own blog. Problem is that button is just not there.
You are told to just click on you “devices” button, hit “project” and then “add wireless adaptor”. Getting my Surface (Windows 8.1) to project was much harder.
Installing the little device was very simple – just plugged it into my projector. Perfect and what every man should wish for this Christmas! to project their screen without any cables. I took the time to buy the great new piece of hardware called “Microsoft Wireless Display Adaptor”, which allows all devices with Windows 8 and 8.1. Instead I will share something completely different and not reated to Project Online. Everything at this conference so I cant share any details. Just came back from a great MVP conference at Microsoft Redmond.
