Qualcomm Atheros Sparrow 11ad Wireless Network Adapter

(3 stars by 224 users)

Qualcomm Atheros is a manufacturer with strong technical strength. The wireless network cards it produces have always been good. One of the network cards: Qualcomm Atheros Sparrow 11ad Wireless Network Adapter, has been recognized by many consumers, If you plan to use the computer for a long time, you can consider using this network card. Qualcomm Atheros Sparrow 11ad Wireless Network Adapter has a very small heat generation and good stability. In addition, it also supports the sleep function. When the network is not busy, the chip automatically reduces the work frequency and save power, If you have many wireless routers around you, it is recommended that you use a network card that supports standard wireless protocols to establish a stable network connection with these routers. Qualcomm Atheros Sparrow 11ad Wireless Network Adapter supports the latest standard wireless protocols, Nowadays, more and more people are shopping online. Qualcomm Atheros manufacturers also take this into consideration, so they add encryption function to Qualcomm Atheros Sparrow 11ad Wireless Network Adapter, which can encrypt data before transmitting to external devices. However, this function is not enabled by default. The encryption function will be enabled only when you set it in the control interface of the driver, In order to ensure a faster network speed, the Qualcomm Atheros manufacturer uses a high-quality circuit board as the bottom plate, so that all components on the circuit board are in good working condition, and the electronic interference generated by each device in the main computer box to Qualcomm Atheros Sparrow 11ad Wireless Network Adapter is very small, Whether you like playing games online or shopping online, this card is very suitable for you.

Qualcomm Atheros Sparrow 11ad Wireless Network Adapter driver installation information

The following is driver installation information, which is very useful to help you find or install drivers for Qualcomm Atheros Sparrow 11ad Wireless Network Adapter.For example: Hardware ID information item, which contains the hardware manufacturer ID and hardware ID. These two ID values are unique and will not be duplicated with other hardware. According to these two ID values, the matching driver information can be accurately found. This method is more effective than any others, and 100% correct.There are many other information items that you can use to find the driver version information and the required driver files.

The name of the driver type in the system is: Net, and the drive type GUID is: {4d36e972-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}.

Use the search function to find the driver you need

Many hardware names are usually named after the chip model, and each chip model has its own dedicated driver, so as long as you know the chip model used by the hardware, you can find the right driver. For example, if your graphics card is named: "AMD Radeon RX 580", while actually the core chip model used is: "Radeon RX 580", then enter "Radeon RX 580" or "RX 580" to find the driver.

If you have a laptop or an all-in-one PC, you can also use the product name to search, and then go to the download page which has all the drivers for this machine (including: graphics card, network card, sound card, etc.). For example, if your laptop product name is: "Dell A6-9220e Inspiron Flagship", then type "Dell A6-9220e" to find all the drivers for this laptop.

Search steps:

1. Enter a keyword in the input box and click the "Search" button

2. In the query results, find the driver file you need, and click the download button

Driver Finder:

• Can't find the required driver files?
• Don't know how to find driver files?
• Unable to download driver files due to unstable network?
You can try using this driver file finder. The method of use is very simple. The program will automatically list all the driver files available for your current system. You can install drivers for devices that do not have drivers installed, and you can also upgrade drivers to the latest driver version for devices that have already installed drivers. Click here to download the driver finder.
