Enable Wi-Fi on windows server

Open the PowerShell console as administrator and run these commands:


Get-WindowsFeature *Wireless*
Install-WindowsFeature -Name Wireless-Networking

fstab_image

After the installation is complete, reboot the host:


Get-WindowsFeature *Wireless*
Install-WindowsFeature -Name Wireless-Networking
shutdown -f -r -t 0

After the restart, the Wireless LAN Service (WLAN AutoConfig) appears in Windows, but it is disabled by default. Start the service and change its startup type to automatic:


Set-Service WlanSvc -startuptype automatic -passthru
Start-Service WlanSvc -PassThru
