support for broadcom virtual wireless adapter for windows 10
Hi there,I've reserved Win 10 upgrade. GetWin10 App says my Broadcom Virtual Wireless Adapter (Dell Wireless WLAN 1501 Half Mini-Card Driver) isn't fully compatible with Win 10 and I'll experience connectivity problems on my machine after upgrading. I can't get any drivers from Dell/Broadcom site that are compatible with Win 10 on my machine. Does it mean after upgrading to Win 10 I'll lose wireless connection on my laptop or Win10 will support my device out of the box? How to fix that issue?

I uninstalled the Broadcom virtual wireless adapter. I had no problems at all. Upgrade went smoothly with no hitches. The machine connected to the internet automatically for the download of win 10 and I have had no problems at all with internet connection.

I researched this for hours this morning as I have the Broadcom virtual wireless adapter and the dell 1501 wireless-lan half mini card. After seeing that there is no new update on any site that I can find, I went to the network sharing center on my laptop, then to the wireless network connection icon, clicked on it, went to wireless connection status details and then click on details and saw that my computer is using the dell 1501 wireless lan half mini card with my internet connection. I just uninstalled the Broadcom virtual wireless adapter and seem to be just fine.
