I have noticed more and more notebook manufactures are falling behind when it comes to posting updated driver and or discontinuing doing this. I found updated drivers for most of my system using downloads direct from manufacture. There are two that I have been unable to obtain Broadcom BT-270, Atheros AR9285, and Fresco Logic xHCI USB 3 FL1000. Broadcom's website has an automated suite to detect the bluetooth in your pc but fails to work. Atheros doesn't show any drivers downloads on their site. I found a Czech website to download from but the driver doesn't update. Fresco Logic's site doesnt show drivers downloads either. Anyone know websites for these three companies, or an improved database to download from?

I tried that, it told me my driver is better. I thought that is strange since its 8 months older than the Czech one.

And people wonder why I updated to an Intel 6200 :confused2:
-
i don't have any problems with the card i believe toyota_scion_tc don't have too
just driver issue -
Intel products = Far more support and driver updates.. and superior wifi performance in general anyways..
Those things alone is worth the upgrade.. looking to get my Intel 6200 shortly. -
I think it's value was quite apparent -
