Solved Missing network and ethernet control drivers

[tariel]

Hi there

I recently did a clean re-install of Windows 7 but forgot to backup the drivers.

I did a Google search of the hardware ID's that I'm missing, but I'm taken to a rather shady Russian website.

The physical hardware itself is TP-LINK 300Mbps Advanced Wireless N PCI Adapter.

From the Ethernet Controller, I'm missing:
PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8168&SUBSYS_E0001458&REV_06
PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8168&SUBSYS_E0001458
PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8168&CC_020000
PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8168&CC_0200

From Network Controller, I'm missing:
PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0023&SUBSYS_3071168C&REV_01
PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0023&SUBSYS_3071168C
PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0023&CC_028000
PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0023&CC_0280

Please help!

EDIT:
I've managed to get the Ethernet controller driver installed, but I am still looking for the Network Controller. I found out that it's coming from Atheros, I must've tried about a zillion different drivers but none of them are working. It's hard to navigate through the Atheros website since it is in Czech.

What is your system specs? Motherboard?

How about the Win7 driver from here.

Or try one of the drivers from here.

Or from here.

Or from here.

Posting again because I figured out the issue. In case anyone else has the same problem in the future, this is what I did.

It was the physical TP-LINK wireless adapter. I unscrewed it and plugged it back in, re-installed the software that it came with, and the internet works now.
