RTL8822CE 802.11ac PCIe Adapter for windows 10 seems to have conflicts. Can I find an earlier driver

[JoshuaCaleb]

Hello, I have recently observed that my notebook has slower speeds than other devices on my network (that I have noticed). It has occurred over the last month or two that the local network dropped speeds on this device, yet I have observed that it also has a higher speed after booting.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the adapter (the latest driver), did various commands from the command prompt such as emptying the DNS cache, and I have even done a selective startup. I had read that some users have rolled back the driver and it seemed to solve the issue. I would like to see what might be a good place to download earlier drivers to see if this solves this issue. It would be appreciated.

Hi:

What is the driver version currently installed?

The driver information says the date is december of 2023 but the version is 2024.10.228.9. I also installed an older version after posting this, which is not reflected in the details of the driver (sp149656.exe). That currently seems to speed up the connection.

If you ever want to give it a try, the newest driver is 2024.10.229.0

 Both this one and the one that I had previously downloaded are working. Thank you.
