Good evening, I long chose a new wifi for my laptop as a result I bought AR5B95 (Atheros ar9285). Which should be in the white list of BIOS. But it turned out that my PC can not determine it and does not let me into the system. Is it possible for your developers to fix this problem. 

At the moment there is BIOS F.41, but also tried on F.66. The result is negative "Wireless Module not supported WLAN Module ID (702) "

 

Bios F.41 (0166CF66.BIN)

You can see for yourself, NOTE. For a list of supported Atheros wireless network adapters, see "Supported devices".

 

Please give the corrected BIOS.

ME?

 

I 'm a happy amateur.  Retired.

 

Never been employed in an IT role in me life.

 

Although I was on the IT HelpDesk at the 2012 Olympics as a GamesMaker (Volunteer Unpaid).

Look at how well that went.

Class!

Well, that's very good. Probably, there was a lot of interesting. I myself would like to visit such a place :generic:

 

About my problemme with WIFI. Do you know who to turn to? And anyway, will my question be considered in the near future?

 

I'm sorry for my English. I have to use an interpreter :manhappy:

Hi

 

This forum is overseen by HP employees and hopefully they will escalate your concerns.

 

As to the Olympics, 1980, I went thru as a transit passenger, Sheremetyavo and there scores of Aeroflot planes done out in the Olympic livery.

 

I have never seen so many planes in a single place before or since.  I was IMPRESSED.

 

You could try a Private Message to a Moderator who may be able to help, Cheron or rick-s, to start with.

 

Thank you for the kind words, and I am out of ideas now.

Thank you. Oh, why are you not in the spirit. Have I offended you in any way? I spoke about my English. I do not speak English well and therefore use an interpreter!

Спасибо за добрые слова, и теперь я не в духе.
