[Hidden-tech] Problem with wireless adapter

[Donald M Stevens]

I assume its an onboarding wireless card?

You could go get a USB wireless card and see if that will work.
Probably cheapest quickness fix

Subject: [Hidden-tech] Problem with wireless adapter


Yesterday, my wireless connection dropped from my Dell Latitude Laptop running Windows 7. The wireless connection is working on all other systems and devices. My laptop works fine with a direct ethernet connection. So I ran Norton and Malware and defragged. Used Manage Computer checked all of the devices to make sure the drivers and software were all up to date. I ran updates and repair on devices that I thought could be related and it worked for a few hours then disconnected again.



Trying a number of different strategies (updating, rebooting, etc.) an error message came up that said:

Intel(r) Dual Band Wireless-AC 8260…No driver found.

Also: Network Controller…No driver found

And: Bluetooth Peripheral Device…No driver found



The last two have nothing in Properties that tells me who provides them or anything useful.

This is a long way of asking if there is a fix that I’m missing, if it is more likely that the wireless adapter/card has died, and if so who would be the best place/resource to fix it.



My many thanks, in advance, to this incredible group of people. Claudia
