Bootcamp wifi not detecting networks after mac OSX wifi update

I have a Late 2012 27 in iMac with a similar issue. I installed Bootcamp and the drivers. Everything seemed fine except the wifi does NOT load. It shows up as disabled and when I try enabling, it gives me a window saying "enabling" and dissappears after a few seconds with no change at all. I created a post here with some details https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5272823

I tried steson322 trick, but that didn't work either 😟

I have manage to solve this problem on my MBA 2013 :

1. Install Boot Camp requirements by Mac model

(For MBA 2013, using BootCamp assistance to download latest bootcamp driver)

2. If Network Adapter not working, direct to the bootcamp driver that you have download
BootCamp -> Drivers -> Broadcom -> (manually install "BroadcomNetAdapterWin7/8x64)

then your network adapter should be working
Hope this helps

It sounds like you were experiencing a different issue than the rest of the people in this thread. What we've been seeing is definitely not a driver issue, and manually install the driver does not fix it.

Thank you so much! This was driving me nuts. I had forgotten I turned off bluetooth in OS X to save battery life then I had no wireless in my Bootcamp partition of Windows 7 x64.

I found a solution for my problem. I formatted the bootcamp partition and installed Windows 8. Installed the Bootcamp software and everything worked fine. Don't know why or how, but it works.

It is a shame that his problem is still not solved by apple. I suppose that the mac users are note very important for them, they prefer to focus on mobile users 😠

I'm having the same problem. Keep getting "Limited" on my Wifi. Check ipconfig and it's got an IP address, default gateway. Not understanding what's the problem.

The problem as somebody told before is that the OSX, does not release the wifi card after rebooting. So you have to shut down the computer in order to have wifi on your windows.

I tried that and it didn't work.

I'm pretty sure whatever issue you're having is not the same issue everyone else in this thread is having. If you were having the issue described in this thread, you wouldn't even be able to see any wireless networks let alone connect to them. If you're connected to a network and have an IP address I don't think this thread it's going to be any help you. You should search the forums some more or start a new thread.

Thanks Admas Koh,

I tried restarting, shutting down, enabling and disabling wifi and bluetooth on OSX and nothing worked.

Manually installing the Broadcomm driver was the only way I could solve my issue.

I've tried everything in this thread and still can't get the network to enable.

I have a 2013 late MBPr 15 inch

The only thing I haven't tried is to install Windows 8, using Win 7 now.

Thanks all for saving my life. It works after I downloaded the Broadcom BCM4360 driver for Asus.

Then manually update the network card driver in Device Manager. It works immediately without reboot.

My MBA is 2013 model, just bought a few days ago, running Win8.

I launched .exe file with a driver manually from BootCamp -> Drivers -> Broadcom -> and it works immediately. I have a WiFi connection.

Hi -

I'm still having the no wifi problem in Bootcamp/Win 8.

I've re-installed Bootcamp, and replaced the Broadcomm BCM4360 driver (to the best of my ability - it only took the Download 1 from the link above)) and at least my Win8 seems to be looking for a wifi network now, but can't find anything.

The rebooting and shutting down hasn't worked, and I've never turned off the Bluetooth in OS Mavericks.

When I option-key boot up, I get a network pulldown menu that shows my wifi, but if I sign in, then boot up Win8, it gives me a Win8 error message and shuts itself down again, rebooting in OS X (the "preferred" OS option).

If I option-key boot up for Win8, but don't select any network (my usual means), I can get to Win8 fine, but I've never had a wifi connection.

Any suggestions?
