Hi:

 

I don't think the SMBus controller is what is preventing the notebook from accessing the internet, but this is the driver you need for it...Restart the PC after installing the driver.

 

This package contains the Intel Chipset Installation Utility and Driver for supported notebook models running a supported operating system. This utility enables the operating system to show the correct name for the installed Intel hardware in the Microsoft Windows Device Manager.

 

Download the driver from another PC, copy it to a USB flash drive.  Plug the flash drive into your 6570 and run it from there.

If you can't connect via wifi, there should be another device in the device manager labeled as a Network Controller with a little ! mark next to it.  That would be the wifi adapter that needs a driver.
