TL-WN822N - Windows 10 drivers needed
Model : TL-WN822N
Hardware Version : V3
Firmware Version :
ISP :
After upgrading to Windows 10 Home 64bit on my old PC (Biostar AMD 880G+ motherboard), the system keeps crashing upon start-up. When the system does manage to get to the Windows 10 desktop, it crashes repeatedly again; each showing the error message, kernel security check failure. This keeps going on until I get bad config system info.
Troubleshooting steps taken (but do not work):
1) Downloaded and installed latest onboard Lan driver (Win 10 64bit) from manufacturer and Realtek.
Shows up in Device Manager as 'Realtek RTL8192CU Wireless Lan 802.11n USB 2.0 Network Adapter'
2) Tried to update device driver for the wireless adapter using either the current drivers from TP-Link or from the manufacturer.
3) Windows 10 accepted ONLY the onboard LAN driver from the manufacturer as the most latest and suitable version, but crashes within 1 or 2 minutes.
Compatibility troubleshooting (file properties) using Vista, Win 7, Win 8 settings do not work at all.
4) Crashes repeatedly until Win 10 decides to disable the wireless adapter altogether
(as seen from Device Manager and the TP-Link utility icon in taskbar).
5) Tried to repair using bootable Windows 10 DVD (created using Microsoft online tools)
6) None of the advanced repair options work (did not try the command prompt option).
7) Option to go back to Win 7 not available.
Final action taken and result:
Clean install to Windows 7 SP1. Installation of TP-Link latest drivers successful.
Shows up as '300mbps wireless usb adapter' in Device Manager.
No crashes so far even after installing latest onboard Lan drivers from Biostar.
I hope that TP-Link would come up with latest Windows 10 drivers as soon as possible.
