Wireless Adaptor Gone Walkies

Nov 15, 2018 5:04AM PST

All of a sudden when I turned on PC this AM I have lost wifi. The WiFi icon appears momentarily in the task bar then it changes to the ethernet icon with a red cross in it. Looking in Device Manager I can't find the wireless adaptor. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
