WLan Driver 802.11n Rel. 4.80.28.7.zip is crucial software designed to improve the wireless connection and performance of computers with Broadcom network adapters. This driver helps your computer communicate effectively with your wireless hardware, making it essential for a stable and fast wireless connection.

This driver ensures that your computer can smoothly talk to its wireless components. Installing this driver can lead to better stability in your wireless connections, which is very important for activities that need a steady and reliable internet connection like streaming movies, playing online games, or downloading large files. The driver supports several wireless standards like 802.11n, 802.11a, and 802.11b, which means it can work with various types of wireless networks.

The issue may be that there was never offical compatiblity for the TL-WN725N V1 with windows 10. The chipset maker may have made one but TP-Link never confrimed the V1 of this adapter would work with Windows 10. Also it has been seen that each time MS updates Windows 10 there is always a chance current drivers will not work or have issues. In situations like that the Chipset make in this case realtek will have to look at the cause and develop a solution for that chipset. Since we do not give offical support for Windows 10 the best solution would be to check with Realtek if this particualr chipset will recieve an update for the new Windows 10 build.

my pavilion g6 laptop's wifi adapter hasn't been working correcty recently. my internet router and networks are running fine as they should be, but every time i reboot my laptop, it keeps saying that there is no connection and no other wifi netowrks, when there clearly is other networks because of my surrounding neighbours.

These ralink adapters are plain ol' sh*t. I'm not sure if this will be a complete fix for you, but I've been wresting with my network adapter for months and this has proven to be the most effective for my computer. I have an HP Envy fortunate enough to be equipped with a Ralink RT3290, running windows 8.

Out of the box, my comp was working fine and it connected to the network OK. As soon as I moved further away from the router, I experienced constant drop outs, and the connection would always flounder between low signal strength, to completely disconnecting itself from the router, where I had to manually re-connect it. A really frustrating issue at that. I use my computer on the top level of my house, and the router is at the basement. So I was getting sick of it fast. Driver update after driver update, no luck. After trying everything under the sun, I decided I would bite the bullet and I tried something a little unorthodox...

I simply uninstalled the driver from my comp. Yes, really. When a component on your comp has it's driver stripped, Windows software has a few drivers that will install by default for your hardware so that it can remain functional on your computer. So, once removing the ralink driver from my computer, windows installed it's default driver for my network adapter and... Voila! My connection problems are practically non-existant at this point. The hardware is still not the best but I can at least browse the net in my room without my connection experiencing constant dropping out.

Now, other than the wireless button light stuck with an orange glow, and device manager listing my network card as #10, I am still using this driver with minimal issues. Occasionally, it will forget the connection once I awaken the laptop from sleep, but this issue was much, much worse with the ralink drivers than without.

If you are fully aware of the risk involved (which is little, to be realistic, this can always be undone & you can always re-install the ralink drivers if this deosn't prove to be an effective solution), I will explain in detail how I managed to do this.

4) - A popup should appear and you should be given the option to proceed with the uninstall or cancel it. Make sure to check the "delete driver software for this device" before you proceed or else windows will re-install the ralink driver.

- If you have a ralink driver installer that's newer or equal to the driver already installed, you can run the installer to remove any leftover driver software that is usually overlooked by device manager when uninstalling it from your computer

- Optionally, you can check C:\Windows\System32\Drivers for any potential leftover driver files. It is important to check for any leftovers that device manager/the ralink installer may have missed because it can potentially conflict with the alternate default windows WLAN driver. the drivers should have an abbreviated name of your adapter (ex. rt3298.sys); they shouldn't be hard to find. Be careful as well; IT IS WISE TO ALWAYS BACK UP ANY DRIVER SOFTWARE YOU MAY BE REMOVING IN CASE YOU MAKE A MISTAKE.

I hope this is of any help to you. People who know nothing about what they're talking about will tell you to install the latest driver and yatta yatta yatta well since that didn't work I had to take the liberty of trying to find a fix for these accursed adapters myself. I hope this somewhat helps your issue!

I have been having the same problem! It's extremely frustrating. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Ralink RT5390 Wi-Fi Adapter a dozen times. It will work for a little while and then it drops off.

forget the solution here as i did try that a couple of times and it didnt work. how i fixed mine was by doing a whole factory reset. i did that cos at the time, i had the BSOD so a factory reset was the only option for me.

My WiFi driver - Ralink RT5390R 802.11bgn Wi-Fi Adapter - fails frequently and the problem is not resolved by deleting and reinstalling the driver. It stil has the same problem. Each time it quits working, I have to "disable" the driver and then "enable" it again to get it to work with my WiFi or restart my HP laptop to get it to work. Seeing all the other responses to this problem should be a serious FLAG to HP and RALINK. This problem seems to persist throughout the PC world where the driver is being used. FIX IT PERMANENTLY!

Hi Paul Please excuse me butting in but my posts are not being answered. Is the link specific to the PC in question or do you think it might work for me. I have a Compaq Presario CQ56 running Windows 7 Home Premium. I have a Ralink RT5390 WiFi adaptor. My router is fine because my phone connects with no problem. I have tried everything I have seen suggested in other posts including updating the bios. I uninstalled the adaptor, deleting the driver but Windows still found a Ralink driver and I still can't connect. I should say that the network is visible, I just can't connect to it.
