Microsoft Windows 10 (32-bit)

I’ve been dealing with this for around 4 months, ever since I finally updated to Windows 10. I had hope getting drivers and getting updates and restarting to fix the network and such could fix the issue, not nothing’s worked. I think it’s gone the longest a few days before it stops working and it’s hard to get back to work before it goes out again.

I’ve tried rebooting the network since that’s an upset and letting the computer restart, only works for a bit then stops, tried to take the adapter and remove it while it’s there and restart and that doesn’t last too long, tried looking for drivers to use on it and idk what happened there. I need to figure out how to solve this once and for all. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi:

 

See if this works...

 

Download and save this driver, but do not run it just yet.

 

https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp96501-97000/sp96873.exe

 

Go to the device manager, click to expand the Network adapters device manager category.

 

Right click on the RTL8188EE 802.11 bgn Wi-Fi Adapter listed there and select Uninstall.

 

Also check the uninstall driver box,

 

Restart the PC and install the above driver I posted and hopefully, that will resolve the problem.

Thank you! I’ll see it’s durability throughout the night and maybe a day more or so and if I have a problem I’ll let you know. If not, I’ll make the above comment as a solution!

It just went out again lol maybe I should just keep running the thing and see if that’ll bring it back everytime unless you have another solution

You're very welcome.

 

Sorry that updating the driver didn't resolve the issue.

 

Unfortunately, I don't have any other suggestions for you to try.
