I am in need of a driver for atheros AR 9285. I don't want a driver scanner or zip programs. I just want the driver itself. Does anyone have a safe link they can send me to use?? Please....

If it's for a laptop, you should download ALL the drivers from the laptop manufacturer's website only, not from anywhere else.

Laptop manufacturers are ALWAYS behind, I never use their sites, I use Intel for chipsets, AMD for graphics, Atheros or Broadcomm or whoever for WLS, etc etc... I never use 3rd party drivers though, has to be the manufacturer's drivers from their site.

Okay, I just downloaded the atheros drivers. Now it's in a ZIP file with some files inside.
I extracted everything into a folder.
Now I don't see any .exe files or anything like it..
How can I install it then?

Update: After googling a bit I found it: In device manager one can select the drivers manually. Just choosing the .sys file should do it
