UX32VD - Intel Update Driver doesn't upgrade Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235

[DVass1]

Hello,

I have serious issues with Wifi on my Asus UX32VD laptop running Windows 10 pro (64bits).

Ma Wifi connexion isn't stable, which increase loading pages time and download files time. The Intel update utility confirms to me that an update is available but it consistently fails. The installation process starts, but the utility tells me that the installation failed without Windows displaying any error message ...

I first tried to delete the driver but doesn't seem to help... I tried a manual driver installation by downloading the .exe file but the result is the same, the old driver is still being used ... Any idea?

DVAS,

What are the issues you are encountering with the Bluetooth*. Please provide all details possible.

[DVass1]

Bluetooth Drivers were uninstalled, I had to reinstall it to get my bluetooth work.

Even after installing https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25276/Intel-PROSet-Wireless-Software-for-Windows-8-1- Download Intel® PROSet/Wireless Software for Windows 8.1*. File name: Wireless_18.20.0_e164.exe (took me 2 hours) the 15.18.0.1 driver is still used...

Any way to force install for the newest driver ?
