Lenovo Z585 losing wifi after driver update, driver rollbacks, 'fixes'
Hi good people,
So, I'm on here like thousands of others with intermittent wifi issues. I upgraded from 8.1 to 10 yesterday and everything works very well except for losing my wifi connection every 30 minutes to an hour.
My wireless adapter is a Broadcom 802.11n
the driver I'm using is Broadcom version 6.30.223.256
I've updated the drivers and the same loss of wifi happens. I've rolled back the drivers and the same loss of wifi happens. I've even tried a driver directly from the lenovo site that is a Cybertan Liteon driver that is the latest version for windows 8.1.
I've also unchecked the box in the power management page. Then rebooted.
I've also used all the commands, in the command prompt admin that start with 'netsh'. Then rebooted. The same thing still happens.
So, I'm up for new suggestions including compatible drivers from different manufacturers.
I'm really hoping there's a Z585 user on here that has solved this issue. According to the Lenovo web site this particular laptop has the latest drivers on the site and none of them are working so far.
