If you really want to debug the Wireless connection, you may need Wireshark and try to download just the drivers while capturing packets on Wireshark. Too many retries will cause network errors and BCA will give up on the download.


On BC6 assistant, to download drivers, you will need to use the Action menu bar item to download just the drivers.
