Asus T100 Wifi Issues

Solved/Closed

Hello,

I have an Asus T100 that I've been using for 3 weeks, and it was working perfectly until today. It no longer detects any wifi networks and shows an error message:
The Broadcom 802.11abgn Wireless SDIO Adapter is experiencing driver or hardware problems.

Upon researching, I've noticed that this issue is quite common but none of the proposed solutions worked (such as downloading the driver from Asus's website, for example).

Thank you in advance for your help!

    Hello, I had exactly the same issue, and it was on English forums that I found the solution: the latest driver version apparently creates this problem (version 187), so you need to revert to the previous version (168).
    For this, there is no need to start uninstalling everything and then reinstalling (as some forums suggest): there is a much simpler solution:
    - go to Device Manager (right-click on "This PC", properties, Device Manager is at the top left)
    - network adapters
    - Broadcom 802.11abgn Wireless SDIO Adapter: right-click properties
    - in the driver tab: click on rollback driver

    And normally you should find your Wifi network again within a minute!

      Thank you very much for your response!

      I know this comment comes well after your solution, but I only tested it today and I can now say that it is very simple and perfectly effective!

      And what if we can't click on "previous version"?

      Hello,
      I registered just to confirm that this solution works perfectly
      The problem just occurred on my T100 and apparently the manufacturer hasn't done anything since February.
      Thank you!

    Just like all of you, the WiFi on my Asus T100 was frequently disconnecting. I solved the problem by configuring my Freebox Révolution as follows:
    Freebox settings / Advanced mode / WiFi / Radio configuration / Primary channel: automatic channel rather than specifying a fixed channel. In this configuration, it's the Freebox that chooses the best channel based on occupancy rates and network "noise." It seems that the Broadband adapter does not support a slightly saturated channel. Since I made this adjustment, I haven't had a single disconnection.

    Hello,
    Is it the one from this LINK that you tried to install?
    Select your operating system, previously Drivers and Tools, click on Wireless Connection, the first one on the list.
    Best regards.
