Broadcom 802.11ac Drivers Windows 10

Hello,

I am running Windows 8 64-bit on a Dell Latitude E6430. In device manager under Other Devices it lists Broadcom USH w/swipe sensor and there are no drivers installed for it. I cannot find drivers or Dell ControlPoint for Windows 8 64-bit or any downloads under Security on the support website for Windows 8 64-bit.

Welcome to Microsoft Community. I will certainly help you with the issue that you are facing. This issue usually arises when there is a conflict with either the security program of any third-party Firewall. I would like to as you:

  • What is the make and model of your computer?

  • Is there any third-party anti-virus installed?

I would suggest you to try the following methods and check if it helps.

Method 1: Disable Firewall

Temporarily disable Windows Firewall and check if you are able to connect to Wi-Fi.

Windows Firewall from start to finish

Important: You should not turn off Windows Firewall unless you have another firewall enabled. Turning off Windows Firewall might make your computer (and your network, if you have one) more vulnerable to damage from worms or hackers.

In addition to a firewall, you also need an antivirus and anti-malware program to help protect your computer. Install Microsoft Security Essentials or another antivirus and anti-malware program, and keep it up to date. Many of these programs update automatically.

Method 2: Check which update is causing the issue.

You can check which update was installed on your computer. This will helps us check if there was any update related to the network or Wi-Fi adapter. You may check the Windows Update history and remove network related update and check.

To view your update history

  1. On the desktop, press Windows key + X and select Control Panel.

  2. Click on Programs and Features and click on View Installed Updates.

  3. Select the updates for the network adapter and click on Uninstall.

Reply to this post with the results of these methods. Hope this information helped.

Thank You

Broadcom Bluetooth Drivers Windows 8

Hi,
I recently got myself a HP 15-af114AU laptop which had Windows 10 pre-installed. I had to install Windows 8 Pro on it since Windows 10 was too slow for me.
Now here's the catch: HP does not provide drivers for this model for any OS apart from Windows 10. I downloaded the drivers and could install most, but not Wireless LAN's and Bluetooth's.
Wireless adapter: Broadcom BCM43142 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi M.2 Adapter
I could find different downloads for this one, few gave me an error saying OS isn't compatible.
I found one for Windows 7 - ran it in compatibility mode - although, it failed after the error: update.cpp 1205
I managed to find one half mini card adapter's drivers which belong to Lenovo - http://support.lenovo.com/in/en/downloads/ds034049 - it did finally let me connect to WiFi, but it is unable to detect WiFi few metres away, while my WiFi get detected at a distance ~5x more.
Is there any way I could use my WiFi on Windows 8 now?
PS: Also, I am not able to modify the brightness - I downloaded the graphics drivers and they got installed to (AMD catalyst), but when I see dxdiag, I cannot see the 2 GB onboard gfx memory.
Thanks for reading!
