Try this...
For the ethernet adapter, download, unzip and run the setup application from the W7 driver file at the link below....
Please post the hardware ID for the device you see listed in the device manager labeled as a Network Controller.
I just want to make sure that it is the ID for the Atheros wlan card. If it is, we can try a couple other drivers.
Use this guide for how to find the hardware ID.

Hi:
You can use all of the W7 drivers from the HP 2000t-2a00 notebook on your model, except the BIOS and firmware files.
You have to select the operating system from the drop down list.

Hi:
After you ran the drivers, the driver folder was created in C:\SWSetup\sp#####, where ##### is the file number of the driver folder.
Try browsing to those folders from each networking device that needs the driver.
I know those are the drivers you need, so unfortunately, if they are not working, I wouldn't know why they aren't.
