Windows 10

I have a I have a Dell Inspiron 15R (N5010)

I have Windows 7 and I already made a reservation.

When I checked my compatibility and found one compatibility issue:

Broadcom Virtual Wireless Adapter

Is there anything that can be done to fix this or will i have to cancel my upgrade which would be really sad?

I have the same problem with my 15R 5520.  If Broadcom doesn't release an upgrade, how do you change the wireless adapter?  Where do I get a new/different adapter?

The message was:

These devices aren't fully compatible with Windows 10

Broadcom Virtual Wireless Adapter

You will have to see if Broadcom releases an updated driver for the wireless adapter (otherwise, you may need to replace the adapter).

Dell likely won't support 10 on this system itself (as it did not support 8.1 on it).
