Where can I find the specific driver I want to restore internet speed?
We have 2 laptops with the same specifications as shown in my profile (Dell Inspiron).
We recently had an issue with very slow internet, and having had the problem before I was able to fix it on one laptop by changing a setting on the Dell Wireless network adapter Properties: on the Advanced tab I changed the bandwidth from 20 only to 20/40 auto (see screenshot below). My download speed improved tenfold.
However, the second laptop had a new hard drive installed a few weeks ago and an different driver was automatically installed for the network adapter. This driver does not have an option to change the bandwidth.
I would like to replace the driver on the second laptop so I can make this change, as it seems to be the solution to the problem. The driver I need is: Qualcomm Atheros Communications Inc. Version 10.0.0.321 Issued 16/06/2015.
Is there somewhere that I can safely download this driver from? Dell does not seem to offer it on their site.
Alternatively, can anyone suggest an alternative solution?
