Model: Archer TX3000E  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: Unknown

On 29 December 2020 I bought the Archer TX3000E to setup Wi-Fi hotspots from my desktop, connect to Wi-Fi sources and also provide bluetooth functionality. I initially downloaded the drivers from the official sources, since I do not have a disc drive.

I downloaded all three, but only #2 seemed to work.

I currently have a working bluetooth connection, but further testing is required to ensure the bluetooth connection is useful.

 

I installed both 1 and 3 and restarted my PC, but the only new function I enabled was flight mode.

I uninstalled the intel Wi-Fi drivers and proceeded to create an ISO of the provided tp-link driver disc to see if using the provided drivers would make the difference.

 

Wi-Fi drivers installed were v21.10.1.

 

 

After restarting my PC, checking my adapters and perusing the device manager I still could not locate the Wi-Fi interface. See image below

 

 

Am I missing something?

@Kevin_Z I switched between PCI-E slots, the last one was the winner. Kind of worrying, because this is a brand new mobo and every port should provide the same functionality... Might become a problem in future when the rest of the slots fill up.

 

Thanks!
