Region : Ukraine

Model : TL-WN951N

Hardware Version : V1


I have assembled my new computer with Windows 8 OS.
Didn't have normal possibility to use wires so i installed TL-WN951N V1 adapter.
Your Windows 8 Compatibility List: http://www.tp-link.com/common/Promo/en/win8compatibility/ says that it is compatible.

The problem is that Windows 8 automatically installed it with "Atheros AR5008X Wireless Network Adapter" driver.
If i try to install latest drivers, utility and QSS from here: http://www.tp-link.com/en/support/download/?model=TL-WN951N&version=V1#tbl_a with setup.exe, after reboot i see blue screen of death with "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" message...
If i try to install only driver through Device Manager, i see message "Driver started to install, but then error occurred"...

So i don't know what else to do to install normal driver for this adapter.
I need it, because i have low speed and dropping connection problems.

I heard that TL-WN951N V1 does not require to install the driver on Windows8 because that the Windows 8 has already contained the driver automatically by default. So the TL-WN951ND V1 is plug and play to Windows 8 at the moment.
