Windows 10: BT Dual band ac wireless dongle

[Hale_SP]

Can anyone confirm whether the BT Dual band ac wireless dongle will work with Windows 10 upon launch please? Thanks

no one can tell you as very few people have yet got windows 10

Yes it does work... BUT! You need to download the Windows 8 driver before you upgrade/install W10, the W7 driver WILL NOT WORK and once you've killed your other OS you have NO WAY of getting the right one unless you have another machine or cable connection handy.

I have set up a dual boot with W7, so I went back into W7, downloaded the W8 driver and saved it somewhere easy to find (all your drives are accessible in W10) and hey presto and it is currently working fine (am typing this from W10). Hope that helps.

Me too!

How do we get the Win10 driver for the dongle? - Win10 is not getting it.
