Qualcomm Atheros Ar9485 Driver Windows 7 Asus Iso

Just would like to find site with New Drivers for Qualcomm AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter. Have been on the Qualcomm site but I am afraid I am not smart enough to figure out where this driver is at. I have searched it and the search brings me to same place as the rest of the rest of the 8xxx drivers. My Driver version is 8.0.0.238 driver Date: Driver was provided by Atheros Communications Inc.

Download Qualcomm Atheros wireless driver. Drivers for many devices with Qualcomm Atheros chipset, for example Allied Telesyn, Belkin, Cisco, D-Link, Gigabyte, HP, Linksys, Netgear, Proxim Orinoco, SMC, and more. Choose a driver version for AR9485 and Windows 8 64bit.

Built by: WinDDK I am having same problem I have been reading about on these forums but have not read any solutions other than updating the drivers, with no clear and present link to, driver download that I could see. I to am having problem DNS Server is not responding on wireless and I see no solution for this problem. My eyes and attention span are starting to fail me in my old age and heightened state of frustration. The sites that I have gone on are the free scan with $4.95 download driver doctorbendovers. Which in my experience do not work anyway as the drivers they end up downloading are not newer and are usually older. But they already have the money! Thank anyone for your help and time with this problem it is greatly appreciated.

Lange203, I did some searching and for the most part found the same problems you've run into. I did however run across a source for an unofficial modded driver.

Reading across multiple forums, it seems like a legit fix even if it's unofficial. In fact, it seems to me more legit than the 'official' drivers. Below I've pasted the description, installation instructions, and a working download link. At the bottom, I also pasted a couple of representative forum entries.

I vetted the source sites, which check out, and downloaded the file and scanned it with four different AV and malware programs and it comes out clean, too. The only thing I couldn't check is whether it actually works. From what I've read about the adapter issues though, I don't see how it could be much worse.

Again, I can't tell you how well this will work or even if it will work at all, but if you want to chance it, here it is (I would recommend setting a new Restore Point before installing, just in case): v8.0.0.279 with modded INF v1.29 for both Vista/Win7 x86 and x64 Should work for ALL Atheros Chipset versions Driver installation instructions - Below is the latest driver with a modded INF that includes the fix and has everything enabled. DO NOT adjust pcieaspm setting to either 1 or 3!! This could possibly cause the error to happen again (not the actual fix but part of it) Just extract the driver somewhere and use the update driver method to install. If a previous driver is installed remove this and if it auto detects an older one then remove this as well, do this until it no longer installs a driver. Reboot after the uninstall then point the new 'hardware found' to the directory where the modded driver is.
