First of all, let me start this by mentioning my laptop model : It's an Inspiron 15 3543
I upgraded to Win10 from Win8.1 and then performed a Clean Installation of Win10 to get rid of bloat and conflicts from the previous installation.
I downloaded and installed all of the drivers from this page :www.dell.com/.../drivers
All of them installed normally and worked except the Wifi + BT driver ( Dell Wireless 1705 802.11b/g/n, Bluetooth4.0+HS Driver )
The installer begins as normal, then the green progress bar reaches the end and the program shuts down, and I'm told that the package failed to install correctly.
I should mention though that the standalone BT driver works just fine, and it installs ( Dell Wireless 1704 Bluetooth Driver )
Windows has installed some generic Broadcomm drivers for the WiFi adapter from 2013, and if I uninstall them they just pop up in the Device Manager again. This wouldn't be a problem if the generic drivers weren't so bad. I lose connectivity almost every 5 minutes.
This is the Hardware ID for the WiFi adapter :
PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_4365&SUBSYS_00161028&REV_01
PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_4365&SUBSYS_00161028
PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_4365&CC_028000
PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_4365&CC_0280
I seriously can't get my head around this issue... Any help is appreciated
