Windows 10: Broadcom 802.11g adapter

Recently Nov 2019 updated win 7 to 10 build 18363. My Broadcom WLAN adapter which was listed in device manager up until yesterday 20 dec has simply disappeared, although when looking in system under "components/network/adapter it is listed as installed.


Now I have no WiFi or Bluetooth connections listed or available in settings/ network & internet! Now I can only connect to the internet by running a 45 foot cable from my modem to the desktop. Everything was working up until 20 dec. I tested the half card in another comp and it works although its running win 7.


I have read of problems with Broadcom and Win 10 is there any fix???

Broadcom 802. 11abgn wireless sdio adapter


hi,

My asus t200 transformer book has the Broadcom 802. 11abgn wireless sdio adapter.
Recently, my PC started having serious issues with connecting to public wifi.
Everytime I try, my PC says my wireless adapter is experiencing driver or hardware related issues, and the wireless function shuts down entirely.

Restarting, enabling and disabling and so forth doesn't solve the problem, only a full uninstall of the device and a clean install of most recent drivers fixes the issue, until next time I try connecting to a public wifi.

My Asus runs window 10 64bit.

Any ideas?

 

This app can't run on this PC - Broadcom 802.11 Network Adapter Wireless... doesnt work on this verion of Windows

Try the one from the Broadcom website listed for Windows 10. You may have to restart your computer after installation for it to take effect.

Use a utility such as Aida64 to see exactly which model is your WiFi adapter. Then download latest driver directly from Broadcom and see if they do work. Since the problem arises only in public networks, it could also be some security restriction. I don't have a WiFi card right now, so I cannot help you with any settings. Anybody else?
