Hi, DragonAngel:
What model PC?
What operating system?
The only driver I can provide right now w/o that info is the wireless driver.
The other drivers needed are for the Broadcom gigabit ethernet adapter and the Intel Management Engine Interface.
If they are on your notebook's support and driver page, those are what you need to install.

What model gateway and I will see what I can find there.
You can try these drivers and see if they work...
Ethernet: Select the W7 32 bit driver from the list.

Hi:
You need this driver for the wireless card in your Asus notebook.

Hi:
I don't know what to tell you. The hardware ID you posted is for an Atheros card.
I would try the driver from your PC's support and driver page if you have not done so already.
