Windows 10: Limited Connection through Wi-Fi after Windows 10 upgrade

Try
Dell Wireless 1702 WiFi + Bluetooth Driver Driver Details | Dell US


You can always uninstall the adapter and reboot to get back to 3.0.2.181

 

Hi,

Today I downloaded driver from Atheros Website but that also didn't work

 

Another to try
Dell Wireless 1702 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 3.0+HS Driver Driver Details | Dell US

 

Driver only unzipped but didn't install. *Sad

 

Did you?

Install

1. Double-click the new icon on the desktop.
2. The Self-Extracting window appears and prompts you to extract or unzip to "C:\DELL\DRIVERS\3K92G". (Where '3K92G' is the name of the file to be downloaded). Write down this path so the executable (i.e.Setup.exe) file can be found later.
3. The Self-Extractor window appears.
4. Click OK.
5. After completing the file extraction, if the Self-Extractor window is still open, close it.
6. Click Start button and then click Run.
7. Type "C:\DELL\DRIVERS\3K92G" (where '3K92G' is the name of the file) in the Open textbox and then click OK.
8. Follow the on-screen installation instructions.

 

I think there is some different issue.

The file is getting extracted properly and the folder "3K92G" is generating at the correct path and even the Setup.exe file is present inside that folder.

But when I am clicking on that executable file, nothing is happening. This is strange.

 

Have you disabled third party AV?

Is the exe blocked in properties|security ?

Try in Safe Mode.

 

Hi,

Where to check whether third party AV is disabled in my system and exe is blocked.

These are all new things for me. Never came across such issues ever before.

Please help !!! *Sad

 

Third party AV is non microsoft Anti Virus - stop it working.
Right click exe|properties - does it say it's blocked?
Have you tried Safe Mode?
Also right click exe|run as administrator.

All this for a driver that you don't even know will solve your problem!!!!

 

I am using Windows Defender only as antivirus.

I am attaching the screenshot of the properties of exe file. Couldn't find anywhere whether it is blocked.





I did try safe mode and was getting the same response from Setup.exe file (i.e no response)

Tried right click|Run as administrator but that also did not work.

 

Try 'security' in properties.

 

Just now I tried to troubleshoot its compatibility with Windows 8 compatibility mode and it got stuck at another point.

Attaching screenshot for the same.

 

Is there any solution to the issue that I am facing? *Sad
