wireless-N 105 wireless dropouts

JHopk2 — Sat, 16 Nov 2013 15:44:19 GMT

Hi all,

Since upgrading to Windows 8.1 and the latest windows updates I have had a few problems with my Acer Aspire E1-571 Laptop.

I think I've sorted the Graphics issue but I am getting frequent wireless dropouts.

Can you tell me if there is a new driver I could install to help get rid of this problem please.

My current driver is:-

Intel Centrino wireless-N 105

Date 25/06/2013

Driver Version 15.10.0.12

Thanks in advance for any help with this.

Ummagumma

Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 105 currently uses Microsoft* inbox driver for Windows* 8.1. We recommend staying tuned for future driver releases. In the meantime you may also update your router's firmware.

Hi Joe thanks for the reply.

The drivers from Microsoft* are usually provided via Windows* Update or from Device Manager's "Update Driver…" button, which leads to "Search automatically for updated driver software". So, if nothing else appears from those options you have the latest Microsoft* inbox driver.
