I see some have been successful with the new beta driver. I have attempted to install it 3 times and all have resulted in a BSOD during installation (DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. Twice, my PC required repair and had to be restored to a previous state. I guess I'll wait for a non-beta driver release. I only wanted to update the driver to see if it would fix the random problem I am having with this device. On start up, Windows will randomly not load these drivers and hence, I will have no connection to the internet. Going into device manager to disable and then re-enable it works but is inconvenient.
