![]() ![]() In Windows 11, Windows 10 & Windows 8.1, right-click the Start menu and select Device Manager In Windows, use a built-in utility called Device Manager, which allows you to see all of the devices recognized by your system, and the drivers associated with them. Once you have downloaded your new driver, you'll need to install it. Most major device manufacturers update their drivers regularly.

So pretty much just wondering if I should simply replace the network card, or if there's some other troubleshooting step that I should try.How to Update TL-WDN4800 Device Drivers Quickly & Easily Step 1 - Download Your Driver So I figure it's the WiFi card itself that's the issue, and probably just needs to be replaced, but the card does work flawlessly once it is actually connected to the network, so I'm not sure what to think, hence why I'm posting here. and finally if all the above failed I'd give up and reset the router, which is a pretty annoying solution to do, since no other device on the same network has had any issues. ![]() If that failed I tried "netsh winsock reset" and "netsh int ip reset" If that failed I would uninstall the device from device manager, "scan for hardware changes" and then reconnect to my network If that failed then I tried "ipconfig /release" and then "ipconfig /renew" in command prompt This used to work pretty well, it would usually fail once or twice with an error of "the default gateway can't be reached", but would usually fix itself eventually. use windows own troubleshooter and hope that is fixes the network issues. My typical trouble shooting process thus far has been the following: (Here's what It shows up as in device manager) There aren't any more recent drivers on TP-links own website, however I did see that it might be possible to get a windows 10 driver through Qualcomm since that's the actual manufacturer of the card. The card is on a windows 8.1 driver, and I have windows 10, however I doubt that that is the issue since I've had windows 10 ever since I purchased the card without issues until now. This only happens to my computer, no other device in the house has any issues, including my phone connected to the same bandwidth, right beside the computer. The problem I've been having is that every time I turn on my computer (it gets turned off between work, and at night) the card will find my network, but won't be able to connect properly. ![]() So I've had this card (Model number Tl-WDN4800) for over 2 years now, and it hasn't given me any problems until the last 2-3 weeks. ![]() (First post so apologies if anything isn't formatted correctly) ![]()
