Solved

Hello,
I have an Acer Aspire ES15 laptop with Windows 10. For some time now, whenever Windows 10 updates, I no longer have Wi-Fi; my Qualcomm Atheros QCA9377 driver shows up in red. So I connect an Ethernet cable and right-click, and Windows offers me a solution. But after the next Windows 10 update, I lose Wi-Fi again. I understand that there is an incompatibility between Windows 10 and the Qualcomm Atheros driver. What can I do? Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hello,
    For updates (for Windows 10, applications, games, etc.), never use Wi-Fi; you should stick to the Ethernet connection. The speed is much better. No crashes.

      Thank you for your clarity, it is difficult for me to use the Ethernet connection because the ADSL comes into my home through the narrow hallway of the entrance and I cannot set up a computer there with an ethernet cable; I could in the dining room but the cable would have to be over two meters long, so I make do with WiFi (which works well) since I have almost as much bandwidth over WiFi as I do with ethernet!
