There is a Wi-Fi adapter d-link dwa 131 / E, for which drivers were downloaded from the official site. When you install them on windows 8.1 (they are just for this system), then the device is found in the list of equipment in the "device manager". If you go to "Network Connections", then there is a network in the list of Wi-Fi adapters, but it is turned off, when you try to turn it on, it instantly turns off. Accordingly, it is impossible to connect to a Wi-Fi network.

If anyone is interested, then by calling the D-LINK hotline: 8-800-700-5465, with the help of technical support, we managed to find out the reason. It turns out that it was necessary to start "Services" and there is a service for working with a wireless network (I don't remember the exact name, because I didn't do it myself) and change the startup type to automatic. After that, everything starts working.
