Hello,
following a reformatting of my laptop, I need to reinstall drivers to connect via Wi-Fi or with a cable, but the problem is that I don't know where to find the drivers (the right ones) to install and it would be super nice of you to help me because my computer is 1 month old and at the moment I can't use it for anything without the internet and I feel like I paid €400 for nothing... thank you in advance ;)
Configuration: Windows Vista Internet Explorer 8.0

      thank you but I've already tried and it's impossible to know which one is the right one, because there are some Vista, some XP, and all that mixed up =/

    Yes, if you are on Vista, then only download drivers compatible with your system (Vista)

    For the Ethernet controller, download and install the "Realtek Lan" driver
    For Wi-Fi, select the Wlan driver.

    PS: for the Wlan, there are three models (Atheros, Foxconn, and Ralink). If you have any issues, don't hesitate.

      Yes, I already downloaded and installed them but still nothing... all I know is that the good one is "foxconn"... I'll start over again to see if it works... thank you.

    Hello,

    Before reinstalling, did you properly uninstall what was in Network Adapters in Device Manager?
