Intel (R) Centrino (R) Advanced-N 6230 Windows 10 connectivity errors

[GGarc8]

I am running a recent upgrade from Windows 7 Pro to Windows 10 Pro and for what ever reason I am unable to connect

to the Internet using my wireless or wired network adapters on my Sony Vaio Laptop...

Has anyone else had this issue? Also, why are there no references for Windows 10 drivers or utilities on this support site?

If there are Windows 10 drivers, please point them out to me.

Thanks,

-GG

G.Garcia,

If the wireless adapter is the original one installed by factory, we recommend that you contact your computer manufacturer first in order to obatin the latest drivers: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/topics/OEMs.html Computer Manufacturer Support Websites - Try uninstalling the current drivers and then use the ones provided by the manufacturer.

Please note that the latest drivers version ( 18.21.0) for this adapter in our download center are Windows* 7. 8 and 8.1 compliant and may or may not work because they are generic.
