Hi @Tbonezz,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

I understand you are looking for the Latest driver for Broadcom 43225 802.11 b, for the HP Pavilion dv7-3111ea Entertainment Notebook PC. 

I was trying to find the details, however, it looks like there are no more drivers available for the PC, as this model has reached the end of life and we no longer have any drivers available for the Pc.

1. Use Device Manager

 

  1. Open Device Manager:
    • Press Win + X and select Device Manager.
  2. Update Driver:
    • Expand the Network adapters section.
    • Right-click on the Broadcom 43225 device and select Update driver.
    • Choose Search automatically for updated driver software

 

2. Download from Broadcom

  1. Visit Broadcom's Website:
    • Go to the Broadcom Support website.
    • Search for the Broadcom 43225 802.11 b/g/n driver.
    • Download and install the latest driver available.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.

Hi Vikram,

Many thanks for the info.

I did go into Broadcom & found a 'linex' driver update for W10-64

So I posted the info of it back on the forum. As a link.

'Norton utilities' are stating that they have the latest? 2016 update?
