I have a laptop Acer Aspire V3-572G-72LR.
I am having serious problems with the 802.11n broadcom driver.
1. When I bought it, with Windows 8 64 bits, the driver version was 6.30.223.10 (31/5/2013). It worked well.
2. Some days later, Windows updated the driver to a version of 2014. Then the problems started:
- If you switch off the wireless card, you cannot switch it on again.
- If you hibernate the laptop, the next time you start it, it starts normally (not from hibernation).
- If you suspend the laptop, it does not suspend, and it does not restart.
3. So I used the option: Go back to previous driver version, and everything was fixed.
4. Yesterday I upgraded to Windows 10. It updated the driver to a new version, so all the problems came back. The driver was from 2014.
5. I have updated the driver to version 7.35.267.0 (15/5/2015), but the problems persist.
So I conclude that there is a problem with the drivers, starting from 2014.
The question is that Windows 10 does not allow me to go back to the old driver. In addition, Windows 10 is supposed to force you to use the latest versions.
What can I do? If the driver is not fixed, it will be impossible to use Windows 10. I will have to go back to Windows 8.
