    Dell Wifi 1820A won't start


    Just updated to build 11082 of Windows 10. My wifi driver will not install properly.
    Dell XPS 13 9350

    From the event viewer: Dell Wireless 1820A 802.11ac : The version number is incorrect for this driver.

    Reinstalling drivers doesn't help.
    Any ideas what to do? *Think

    :)

    iTunes not starting after WIN 10 Creators Update

    Interesting. Dell XPS is the problem machine here as well. What did you uninstall--was it "WIDCOMM Bluetooth Software, Broadcom Corporation, 12.0.1.790"? I
    think the genesis of this was Dell "Dell Wireless 1550/1560/1704/1708/1820A/1830 Bluetooth Driver" which downloads "Network_Driver_YW21W_WN32_12.0.1.750_A04_01".

    Dell XPS 13 and wifi problems after Windows 10

    I'm also intermittently seeing this exact issue... usually when awaking the computer from sleep. The Wi-Fi symbol will indicate that there are no network connections available. I have noticed that I can disable then enable the driver to get this it to work
    in lieu of restarting the computer completely.

    PC: Dell XPS 13 (2015)

    Network Adapter: Dell Wireless 1820A 802.11ac

    Driver Provider: Broadcom

    Driver Date: 6/4/2015

    Driver Version 1.442.0.0

    I've installed whatever updates are available from Dell.

    EDIT: I've checked for updates through Device Manager rather than the Dell site and Windows found an update. I'll see how this works. The new driver is:

    Driver Date: 11/26/2015

    Driver Version 1.555.0.0
