WiFi card on Inspiron N5110
I own a Dell Inspiron N5110 with Intel Centrino N1030 as wireless card which is not supportive on windows 10 as on date. I recently upgraded from windows 7 to windows 10. As of now card is working fine but after a few days it will stop as it has happened earlier also when I tried to upgrade the OS.
Q1) Is there any alternative to make Intel Centrino wireless N1030 work with windows 10 through some tricks or any changes in the settings or anything like that?
Q2) If ans to Q1 is no then Can I change to any other wireless card which supports windows 10? Can somebody tell me which are the list of windows 10 supportive intel card which also support Inspiron N5110. like Intel wireless N7260 for instance?

Hi Jesse
Thanks for your response.
However I could not completely understand your reply. I already have an N5110 Inspiron for last 4 years with an in-built wifi card N1030 which I can see is enlisted by you. Now N1030 does not work on Windows 10 OS. So I would like to know how can I fix this? Do I have an option of making some changes in the settings anywhere to make N1030 work on WOS 10? If not, then out of wifi cards supporting windows 10, which one I can replace with N1030 inside my laptop the inspiron N5110? If not, then I might have to go for a usb wifi card
