I am unable to see wifi adapter on my Lenovo ThinkPad T14/T14s, while using it on windows 11 pc. In my network sharing center, I can see ethernet adapter & bluetooth adapter. 

Meanwhile, WLAN adapter was available till last night.

Let's go to the device manager and make sure that you have not disabled the wireless adapter. 

1. Right click on the start button and go to device manager. 

2. Click on the network adapters. 

3. Now right click on the wireless adapter and then click on the enable button. 

That's it you have enabled the device. now it should be showing in the network sharing center.

It looks like the driver is missing from your lenovo laptop. that's why you cannot see the network adapter. 

So you need to install the wireless driver by following the instructions given below. 

  1. Open Device Manager and find your Wi-Fi adapter.
  2. Right-click it and select Uninstall device (check Delete the driver software for this device if available).
  3. Restart your PC. Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver automatically.
  4. If not, visit your laptop or motherboard manufacturer's website and download the latest Wi-Fi driver.
