Need W10 driver for Wireless Card
I have a HP HP Pavilion p6_2026 Desktop PC and wanted to add a
wireless PCI card to it. I bought 'HP 502300-001 Desktop Dual Band WLAN PCIe x1 Wireless Wi-Fi Card W/Anttena' on Ebay, and now I need the driver for it. I not only cannot find same, but when I try, all all I can get are vendors who want me to buy their 'drive updaters'. Before I give up, does anyone know a source for the driver I need for this adapter that will work in Windows 10? Thanks JW |

Entering the part number on the HP site seems to indicate it's an Intel product so it's possible Windows already has the driver especially as HP say that a driver is not available from their site. I got no driver with the card. I found somewhere a driver called 'Atheros Wireless Lan Driver' and got: Your system does not meet the operating system requirements. Update has been cancelled (9998). Windows did not offer to find another. The hP download site said there were too many possibilities to provide a list of possible drivers. Cool. I cannot find another driver to download. JW |

It's free and it will install and update the driver for you. It might hassle you about buying their pay version but you don't have to and it comes with no malware. Have you installed the card and see if there is a native drive for it? OR Have you considered some thing like this TP-LINK Wireless N Nano USB Adapte It is about $9 at staples. Using an adapter would probably be cheaper in the long run. I thought I already bought an 'adapter'. JW |

Thanks JW HP only lists drivers for XP and Vista, no W7 or W10. http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/p...mId=vc_67618_1 Card was made by Gemtek, circa 2008. MAC: 00-21-00-87-15-CD https://macvendors.com/ https://fccid.io/document.php?id=1023983 Chip was made by Qualcom/Atheros. https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Gemtek_WPEA-113N https://www.atheros-drivers.com/ AR9280; AR5009; AR5009 list drivers for W10. Will any of them work? IDK. I would try the AR5009 W10 drivers first. If that does not work then try the drivers for W8 and Vista. |

It did provide a list of systems that contained the card though and I went through a few of them until I found: I selected windows 10 64 bit to get there. http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/...A0AQC11TA930C7 on the Driver-Network section the last one is a Realtek driver, try that. Alternatively wotk through the list until you find one. http://partsurfer.hp.com/Search.aspx...ext=502300-001 has 134 items that contain the part. Select each one to find out it's product number and then go to http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers and search for the product. -- Faster, cheaper, quieter than HS2 and built in 5 years; UKUltraspeed http://www.500kmh.com/ |

JW The best I could find, is a Windows 8 driver for the 9280. https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Gemtek_WPEA-113N The hardware (Atheros single chip AR9280) appears to have been released in 2010. This should yield a PDF file. https://www.atheros-drivers.com/qual...code-4653.html It's hard to believe it is out of support already. This claims to be a Win8 driver, but it might actually be based on older content. win81-10.0.0.329-whql.zip 2,535,899 bytes https://www.atheros-drivers.com/qual...code-4655.html Qualcomm bought Atheros. And Qualcomm does not deliver drivers to end-users. Give the contents of that ZIP a try. Unzip the files into a folder. Using Device Manager, pretend to update the device, and point it at the INF files, and see if Device Manager is "interested" in the two INF files. I don't know why there are two INFs, so you may end up trying them one at a time. While they could be "layers" to the protocol stack, I can't tell by looking at the INF files. Paul |

I wanted to 'cast' whatever appears on my W10 screen like I have done in a companion Windows 7 PC (with same Chromecast device). Gotta check that out! Thanks anyway JW |
