No network driver found windows 11 installation

 No network driver found windows 11 installation


To fix "no network driver found" during Windows 11 installation, bypass the network requirement by pressing Shift + F10, typing OOBE\BYPASSNRO, and hitting Enter to continue setup without internet. Alternatively, download network drivers on another computer, move them via USB, and load them during setup.

Immediate Workarounds
  • Bypass Network Check: On the network connection screen, press Shift + F10 (or Shift + Fn + F10 on some laptops) to open the command prompt. Type OOBE\BYPASSNRO and press Enter. The computer will restart, and you can select "I don't have internet" to complete setup.
  • Use Ethernet: Plug in an Ethernet cable directly. Often, wired LAN drivers are included, even if Wi-Fi drivers are missing. 
This video explains how to bypass the network requirement during installation:


Permanent Solution: Installing Drivers
  1. Download Drivers: On a working computer, visit your motherboard or laptop manufacturer's website (e.g., Dell, Lenovo, ASUS).
  2. Locate Driver: Search for your specific model and download the Wi-Fi or LAN driver to a USB drive.
  3. Load Driver: During the Windows installation, when you reach the network screen, connect the USB drive, press Shift + F10, type explorer, and find your driver on the USB stick to install it, or browse for it during the network selection step.
  4. Alternatively, run the setup: If you have already bypassed the network, install the downloaded driver in Windows, or check in Device Manager for any devices with a yellow warning triangle and update them using the driver you downloaded
