The moment the Windows 10 Anniversary update finished installing the wireless access on the two private networks I log on two was broken. I get the message "can't connect to this network". The interesting thing is that I can connect to my cable provider's WiFi hot spot just down the block.
My machine is an Aspire ES 573-516D. Device Manager shows the network adapter as a Qualcom Atheros QCA9377. The driver date is 2/25/2016, version 4.0.2.217. I can provide the name of the five driver files if needed.
When the problem first showed I rolled back the Anniversary Update. It didn't fix the problem. So I don't know if the current driver is the pre-update, or the post-update. Regardless, it broke with the update and rolling back the update didn't fix the problem. I now have configured the system to halt any unauthorized updates
Any help will be appreciated.
===============================================
Windows 10 has been nothing but headaches. This laptop was running Windows 8.1 just fine. I let the "upgrade" to Windows 10 take place, and I lost the infrared interface to my dive computer. That caused me to lose a lot of data and took over 6 months to fix. Now the wireless, which was running fine, breaks with the Anniversary version. The idiots at Microsoft should be shot for shoving updates down our throats with no recourse, and then using us as beta testers for unproven software.
And to add insult to injury, the "upgrade" from Win 7 to 10 failed miserably on the desktop. Not enough space on the C drive. That one had to be rolled back as well, and is now awaiting a clean install when I find the time and get more confortable with the process. Ugh!
