Hi all,

I've had to format my dell 6430u latitude and now I can't seem to be able to find the driver for my wireless nic. It using Windows 7 x64 professional.

In my device manager the missing device is showing as PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0034&SUBSYS_020D1028&REV_01

I used ma-config and the component was listed as being a:

Qualcomm Atheros AR9462 Wireless Network Adapter

I've tried to source the driver on the qualcomm atheros website but none of the downloads seem to be picked up when i try to add the driver to the device.

Could someone help please?

Thanks for your reply.

I've tried every driver posted under there I'm afraid. Bluetooth has installed correctly with one of the installs on that page. Just not the wireless.

If you had the wireless card replaced, Dell won't help you...

If it's original, they should the driver for you, their website may not have the right drivers posted.
