Please ask any questions if I was not clear in explaining anything. Anyone have similar issues, or perhaps a solution? That's a long and arduous process to go through every time I power my computer on. During the installation of this update, be sure that you are logged in as the Administrator or as a user with Administrative rights. No problems until the next time I reboot or sleep/hibernate.Īs you can see, this is a strange problem. Qualcomm Atheros AR9485WB-EG Wireless Network Adapter (Windows 8 64bit) Download.
QUALCOMM ATHEROS AR9485WB EG WIRELESS UPDATE UPDATE
The "Device Manager" shows that it has reverted to the driver included with Windows, forgetting that I had just installed it with an alternate driver.ģ.2) After it forgets which driver to use, I go back to the "Device Manager", update it to use the alternate driver. Disconnects after 10 seconds and forgets which driver to use?! This is very weird.
Please read results, because it's still a mess here. Upon reboot, or restore from sleep/hibernate, the WLAN card is listed in the "Device Manager", is powered on and has no warnings.ģ.1) After rebooting or restoring from sleep/hibernate, I need to delete the WLAN card from "Device Manager", then reinstall it with the proper drivers. Upon reboot, or restore from sleep/hibernate, the "Network and Sharing Center" does not include the WLAN card in the list. Upon reboot, or restore from sleep/hibernate, the "Networks" charm/sidebar-thing shows that WiFi is in an "off" state. Can connect to all APs! No problem connecting at all! Very stable connection! Results are very mixed, please read carefully:

It does ask for my username and password, but times out when trying to connect.Ģ) Install official Qualcomm drivers provided by ASUS at this page (link) (). If you're unfamiliar with this, it basically means I use my school username and password instead of only a WPA2 password/key.
This is where things get a bit messy! At the university I attend and work for, every WiFi Access Point uses this scheme to authenticate users against the school's Active Directory. Cannot connect to ANY APs using WPA2/PEAP with MCHAPv2 (Authentication against Microsoft Active Directory) Cannot connect to most WPA2 encrypted APs I'll try to get all the pertinent information into an easy-to-read post, in the steps that I took and the results that I got.ġ) Install Windows 8 Fresh, use built-in drivers. So I have a very interesting problem! My G55, after upgrading to Windows 8 I tried using the built-in Qualcomm drivers, that didn't work so I experimented around for a bit.
