We understand you're having recognition issues with your Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 2230 ever since you upgraded to Windows® 10.

(Code 31)."Ĭan anybody help? Obviously I'm happy to provide more technical details as needed.

This morning I gave it another try, uninstalled the 'hidden' device and then reinstalled it using 'instal legacy software' option, but now I get the error message "This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. In between different attempts to find a solution sometimes the device disappeared also from the 'hidden' items of device manager, sometimes came back upon restart, all very erratic. I found that it still existed under 'hidden devices', tried several things (uninstal followed by scan for hardware changes or - following the advice by the (not very useful) Dell customer service - installing Intel® PROSet/Wireless Software and Drivers for Windows® 10 (without any visible effect whatsoever), etc. In Device manager, the network adapter had also disappeared. the computer didn't know anymore that it exists (no reference anywhere to Wifi, for example under 'Network and Internet settings' Wifi doesn't appear as an option, etc.). The laptop is a Dell Inspiron 5521, originally running under Windows 8, then upgraded successively to Windows 8.1 and now Windows 10 Home (Creator's update).ĭuring an update of Windows 10 (this was before the update to Creator's) the wireless adapter suddenly became 'invisible', i.e. Now I have been without Wifi for more than three weeks and I am really anxious to find a solution. I have been struggling for some time with my Wifi adapter (Intel Centrino N-2230) which 'disappeared' after a recent update to Windows 10.
