My older laptop got "bricked" after upgrading it to Windows 10 - both the Atheros Wi-Fi adapter and the Broadcom Cat-5 adapter were dead - due to no Windows 10 drivers.
It worked, even though the original hardware adapters are still non-functional. Wish Windows 10 was smart enough to use the old Windows 7 and 8 drivers, if no new Windows 10 driver is available for a device like these adapters. The old drivers were already bit, so clearly could have worked fine - as they clearly did to download, update, and install Windows Who makes any money by failing to support millions of devices that probably never will get Windows 10 drivers made for them at this point in their life-cycle?
Likewise, the bundled Broadcom drivers didn't work either for the same reason. Still waiting to see if any bit Windows 10 drivers ever appear for these devices. ZIP has to be installed manually using Device Manager.
Unpack the zip file to an empty directory. Details required : characters remaining Cancel Submit. Far from getting a new Pc, I can tell you how to solve this. I have had this problem with a Toshiba Sattelite, HP laptop, and now a Lenovo - all for family and friends.
Windows 10 has serious issues with Qualcomm Atheros WiFi adapters and there are workarounds that will fix the problem. First type of problem - You upgrade to W10 but the WiFi doesn't work. Open your devices list, as you have done, right click the Atheros WiFi adapter and then the drivers tab. Roll back to the previous driver and reboot. The Windows 8 driver for Atheros will work in W10 - you can download it. You may need to download the update exclusion tool from Microsoft to prevent the automatic updates from installing the faulty W10 driver again - its a little known free app that lets you mark things you dont want updated.
I can let you have details if you need them. Second type of problem - Your laptop Usually a Lenovo goes through nearly all the W10 upgrade and then fails before the progress circle on black background appears, with a message saying the upgrade failed and it has put it back where it was.
I had this four or five times and then asked Microsoft to help. They worked on it for hours and they were not able to fix it. I then disabled the Wireless adapter and rebooted. I had already used the media creation tool to load W10 upgrade package onto a USB. When the laptop came back up, ran the setup file on the USB and the upgrade went through, all the way. Hope that helps. I've met the problem on every laptop that I have upgraded.
How are other users updating out of date drivers since the demise of the Atheros. You may also install the drivers in compatibility mode. Compatibility mode runs the program using settings from a previous version of Windows. Follow these steps to install the drivers in compatibility mode and check if that helps. You may also refer: Make older programs compatible with this version of Windows Steps applies to Windows I hope this helps you.
