Q: Windows 10 boot camp wifi lasts 7 minutes
Hello,
2012 13" MacBookPro, I have been using it almost exclusively as a Windows 7 Boot Camp machine for a good calendar year. The last week of November updated the OS to Windows 10. For three days now have had extremely terrible wifi problems, where the WLAN service stops after roughly 5 to 10 minutes. The wifi icon on the bottom-right shows no available wireless networks. Running the network troubleshooter solves the problem for 5 minutes, just as does manually restarting the WLAN service (which is set to Automatically run).
I've tried reinstalling device drivers from Boot Camp Assistant USB.
I've tried uninstalling the Broadcom 802.11n Network Adapter without deleting the driver.
I've tried uninstalling the Broadcom 802.11n Network Adapter including deleting the driver.
I've also noticed a lot of recent posts with differing Mac hardware with this exact same issue. Is this a driver issue? That seems to be the only path investigated...
Thank you,
Andrew
