Feb 1, 2016 7:38 PM in response to mty713by Loner T,If you are connected via OS X and Alt-Click on the WiFi icon, it provides a drop down, which can show some details of the SSID. In some cases, a 40 Mhz channel may be problematic, based on the drivers loaded.
Is the radio 2.4G or 5G? I have a 2013 rMBP, which has no issues with W7/802.11n and wide channels. It is using the standard BC5 W7 Broadcom driver. Please see Re: Windows 10: BCM43xx S3 resume firmware initialization problem (MacBook Pro 15 mid 2014) .

Feb 1, 2016 7:47 PM in response to Loner Tby mty713,It's 2.4G. actually I tried both 2.4G and 5G, both didn't work. The wireless adapter is Broadcom 802.11ac, which should be able to handle 802.11n.
I tried to download Broadcom 802.11n adapter and installed it, it didn'w work either.
Can you please share me with the link of the your wireless driver?
I will give it a go.
Thanks

Feb 1, 2016 7:52 PM in response to mty713by Loner T,The driver is located at Install Windows 7 and earlier on your Mac using Boot Camp - Apple Support . Choose the link appropriate for your year/model and download the BC5 drivers package.
For your 2013 13 inch model, you need Boot Camp Support Software 5.1.5640, which has the following System requirements

You will need to run the driver by hand from the Drivers -> Broadcom folder.

Feb 1, 2016 7:56 PM in response to Loner Tby mty713,I actually tried this as well.
I think i might need to uninstall win7 and reinstall it again...

Feb 2, 2016 5:46 AM in response to mty713by Loner T,Can you uninstall this driver, delete the adapter, use pnputil to clean up the driver store and then retry this driver?
You can also download Acrylic WiFi to look at AP information and run Wireshark to capture WLAN packets/frames?
