I have a Surface Pro 3 and the wifi will not work. Just keeps telling me 'No Networks Found' I have tried uninstall the driver from device manager. (Let windows update do its thing to fix it. Enable/Disable it, Use Windows troubleshoot. Downloaded and tried these drivers from MS. Reverting back to Windows 8.1 using Reset.
Here is the current Adapter + Driver Version If anybody had this issue please chime in. I'm running out of ideas as to what it might be. If you know of a specific driver that works or have a SP3 with wifi let me know the driver version or share the driver with me. I have just had the same issue and spent a good 2 hours on it. This is the process I go it to work was similar to Tx1TG17Y but I had to d a few more steps at the end. Opened device manager 1) clicked on show hidden devices 2) uninstalled wireless adapter 3) hard reset the device ( Power Button + Volume Up Button until system goes completely black.) 4) restarted 5) Went to the device manager show hidden devices again. 6) Network adapter has a yellow triangle next to it 7) Disable device, the enabled device and restarted.
Now wireless adapter works. I have been having the exact same problem. I contacted Microsoft support and they were no help, offering lots of the usual repair routes, none of which worked. My Surface 3 is out of warranty so they have said repairing mine will cost £600! Pretty ridiculous as I can buy a new one for £900. Having tried every software fix recommended, including the ones posted here, I still have the same issue which leads me to believe it might be a hardware issue. I will have a look at a LINUX Distro in order to diagnose the hardware but I haven't really used LINUX so any advice would be appreciated!
Drivers don't want to install on my surface pro? Sweatyturtle Jul 27, 2013, 6:09 AM Ok so this is what happened: 1) Bought a USB2.0 to Ethernet adapter which uses the ASIX AX88772 driver.
It is all a little strange for a Windows person. There are about 300 Distros that you could try! Most of them have very good instructions on how to prepare a usb or DVD from a Windows environment.
Is one. Choose Windows and follow the guide. It is a live Distro so that you can try it do not have to install it on your machine It will not perform fast when you get it going since you are running from a USB stick, but it will do. Other Distros are designed to work from a USB by loading the whole OS into the RAM and running from there and they can be fast. When you get it going click on the icon for wireless and fill in the details and away you go.
