I have tried the latest driver updates and uninstalling and reinstalling. I have also tried a clean install. I have tried taking the Network adapter out and putting it back in. now I am stumped. I am getting error code 10. and when I try latest drivers it says that the latest drivers are already installed.

    In the end, I moved the PCE-AC68 to a Fedora-based linux box and bought a new PCE-AC88 for my Windows box.  It installed properly and is working.  So my repurposed PCE-AC68 is working fine, and my new PCE-AC88 is also working fine.  I realize that's not a valid solution for everyone, but for those of us who have to have our systems functional immediately, that one will work.   What's nice about Linux is that once hardware is supported, it seems to be supported forever without undue breakage -- a philosophy sadly lacking from Microsoft.  Microsoft might take a page from IBM's backward - compatibility philosophy, and assure that once hardware works under Windows, Windows won't break that hardware.  That's why IBM implemented the 7090 microcode in S360 -- they allowed their customers to run really ancient operating systems and business software on modern hardware without problems.

    Best wishes to those plagued with this problem.

    Hi there,

    I am having the same issue. I installed the latest update to Windows 10 and my ASUS PCE-AC68 stopped working. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. I have changed the slot the card is installed in and nothing has worked. Any updates on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

    Interesting.  Immediately after installing 1701 yesterday, my AMD system (8-core FX) code 10'd on the PCE-AC68 and I cannot get it back.  In device manager, all the information about the card drivers is correct.  The Oct 2017 drivers won't install using the ASUS utility, and neither the 2016 nor 2015 drivers work.

    Kind of sad, because prior to this update the card produced reliable fast connections to my access point over 200 ft away through three walls.

    I'll post the system characteristics as soon as I get back to it; obviously, one can't do research on a machine with no network connection to the outside world.

    Same problem here.

    I made some investigation on two different computers with the same Asus Wifi card PCE-AC68.

    System 1:

    Mainboard:  Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3-AM3+

    Processor:  AMD Phenom II X6 1075T

    System 2

    Mainboard:  MSI H97M-E35

    Processor:  Intel CPU Core i3-4160 (1150)

    Fresh insalled W10 pro 1703, Asus driver installed, both computers have a functioning Wifi card.

    Fresh insalled W10 pro 1709, Asus driver installed,

    The intel system is okay, on the Amd system the card driver is not starting, code 10.
