Main issue: I don’t know what drivers I need in order to get my WiFi working.

Having a problem with my new msi x870 gaming plus WiFi. From what I’ve seen, this boards antenna is running wifi7 which only works on win11, and I’m currently on windows 10. I’m currently in the process of updating to windows 11 to see if it will work, but of course you actually have to be connected to the internet in order to proceed. Therefore, I cannot download drivers directly from the pc. Does anyone have any idea what drivers I need to install in order for the WiFi to work? I have the option to install drivers from a usb, but i have no clue what drivers this board/ network adapter needs. Bluetooth on it works just fine too.
No, I don’t have access to Ethernet unfortunately.
R9 9900x3d
Msi x870 gaming plus WiFi
7700xt (if it matters)
Any help is greatly Appreciated.

I’m having a very hard time trying to troubleshoot to get my pc to even find a network. I’m using an X870 msi gaming plus wifi, r9 9900x3d, 7700xt. Had this board for a while with no problems but I was using Ethernet. Now that I have to use WiFi, it’s not finding a network. When I troubleshoot, it says no Ethernet connected, which is weird because I’m not trying to connect Ethernet. Not sure if it’s possibly a driver thing, when I try to update drivers from device manager, they are all up to date. The antenna is a Bluetooth and WiFi device, and BT works fine. Running windows 10 and this pc hasn’t been turned on in close to 4 months before just now. Any help on suggestions? I’ve tried clearing cmos, uninstalling whatever random drivers device manager shows when the antenna is plugged in. Is there an actual driver from msi that I need to download in order for this to work? Any help would be appreciated.
