Wireless AC1200 Dual Band USB Adapter where are windows 10 drivers?
betatwins:
where are windows 10 drivers?
FurryNutz:
What region are you located?
Drivers for 10 may not be available at this time. You can try using the most current drivers located on D-Links regional sites.
RayVTx:
I am also curious about compatibility of D-Link drivers with Windows 10.
I have two AC1200 USB adapters and an older DWA-131 adapter...on three separate computers. Last night I migrated one of my computers (the one with the DWA-131) from Win 7 to Win 10 and lost internet connectivity as a result. Interestingly enough, the DWA-131 successfully shook hands with my router but it could simply not gain access to the internet. Researching the internet this morning from my workplace, I find that many new Win 10 users have been reporting this same issue. Lucky for me I was able to revert my rig back to Win 7, and guess what? My adapter works again! Microsoft's pat response to users experiencing the Win 10 internet connectivity loss is to check that we have the most up-to-date (compatible?) drivers. For now I am forgoing any further migration to Win 10 unless this issue is resolved.
Questions:
1. So is this a D-Link driver problem or a Microsoft migration/upgrade problem?
2. Does anybody know if all D-Link drivers (US region) have been evaluated for Win 10 compatibility? If not, when will this be done and when can the user community see some notification from D-Link that Win 10 compatible drivers are available for download?
Please advise.
Thanks.

I recommend that you phone contact your regional D-Link support office and ask for help and information regarding this. We find that phone contact has better immediate results over using email.
Let us know how it goes please.

I sent D-Link Technical Support an email message with my query.
Will wait for their response and keep you posted.
