WiFi on Windows 10 problem

Hi

I have MacBook Pro mid-2014. What I have done is following:
-updated everything related to Apple or Windows on both mac/win sides

-upgraded to Windows 10

but my Wifi is not working, it finds my plan and seems to connect to it. But Windows says no internet connection (and points problem to driver)

I have tried probably every way to resolve it that can be found from internet and this forum, but no luck.

-Tried to update driver form bootcamp installer package

-Uninstalled device & driver

etc..

Can some please, guide me how to resolve this. Maybe working driver or something....

Thanks

MacBook Pro with Retina display, Windows 10

1. Can you check Windows Device Manager and check how many unknown devices (yellow triangle and exclamation mark) do you have?

2. Please post the line from Bootcamp.xml which has Product Version entry. It looks similar to the following...

<ProductManufacturer>Apple Inc.</ProductManufacturer>

<ProductVersion>5.0.5033</ProductVersion>

<ProductCode>{FA2B2C2A-EA41-495A-9308-60726125D562}</ProductCode>

Hi,

Bootcamp.xml contains:

<ProductManufacturer>Apple Inc.</ProductManufacturer>

<ProductCode>{FCFFE6B6-BAE8-490E-88D0-097A9DA1C43D}</ProductCode>

And here are screenshots from device manager

OK, some update.

I have tried following:

-uninstalled KB's 3120677, 3116908, 3116900, 3124200
after each uninstall tried to connect to wifi, but same error "No internet,secured"

-tried broadcomm drivers:
6.30.244.217, 6.30.223.215 and 7.35.118.40

-updated boot camp setup using brigadier.

Any advice how to proceed, btw my mac models is MacBookPro11,3 and Win10 build 10586.36 (updated from 8.1)

(I don't want reinstall bootcamp parition as I have so much to lose on win side)

I tried to installed KB3124200 again and used driver from Bootcamp setup package 6.0.6133, and issue still remains.

I'm kind of clueless what do next, was even thinking clean boot camp install, but not ready to that yet =)

Your driver store seems to be corrupted. Can you use pnputil (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff800798.aspx) and check the drivers that are being used for the Wireless adapter?

Thanks Loner T for all your help, but still not working or maybe I did something wrong

I uses pnputil to delete all network adapter drivers, uninstalled wireless adapter, restarted and installed bootcamp 6 drivers. but still no luck.

Do you think I used pnputil correctly, or is there something I could try still?

(I think I'll go and buy lan adapter to my macbook pro, but after holidays)

Yes it seems to come up properly, it finds my WLAN and tries to connect to but then shows "Secured, no internet" as connection state. Same happens if I try to use iPhone as hotspot.

If I try automatic repair, it says there is problem with my driver. Just if I could find out which driver has problems
