I have an HP2000 Notebook PC running Windows 8.1I have been hoping for an update for this network adapter as I have been having network connectivity issues for several weeks and many times the windows diagnostic resets this network adapter.I am receiving notices via HPSA that there are (2) updates for this network adapter. I can download the updates, but the installation failed on both and I don't know why or where to look to find out why. More investigating now has me thoroughly confused. In response to your statement 'only update if you are experiencing problems'.Second sentence of my post stated:' I have been hoping for an update for this network adapter as I have been having network connectivity issues for several weeks and many times the windows diagnostic resets this network adapter.'

I'm going to mark my post solved by updating via the research I did myself. This was of no help whatsoever. I asked what the driver is/should be currently used with the Qualcomm Atheros AR9000 Series WiFi Adapter.

That's all I was needing to know. Frankly I am about ready to go out and find an HP building /company facility and throw my laptop right through the window of it. This is quite the load of crap. These HP 'forums' is something that follows in the footstep of google products.

It is their way of flipping you off and saying that they have no interest in helping anyone at all. I have seen this same question for months, and all the answers are full of crap and do nothing and is the same everywhere. They run you through a bunch of steps that are a neverending and never work! I actually did, I couldn't get a lot to work initially because for some reason everything that I downdload and installed would just disappear and go back to the old settinga as soon as I turned it off and on.

You can tell I was frustrated by the previous posts. I wrote an e-mail to HP corporate, and I don't know if it was a coincedence or not, but I recieved an e-mail back saying thanks for writing blah, blah, blah, about a week later and a day or two after that I got an automatic update alert and it was an update for the Wifi driver. It has worked fine ever since. So I am assuming they just finnally found a fix for it so if you are still having a problem you might want to check to see if you have missed or uninstalled updates. I am having the same problem with my PC. I have had connectivity issues for a number of weeks.

I have been able to uninstall the driver and reinstall a new one with correct specifications and that had been working. Now it simply won't read any wireless connections at all, despite downloading/installing many types of drivers (including the one that had previously worked).This leads me to believe it's an issue with the adapter, but it seems as though many people are having this issue so it's a software issue.
