Macbook pro, boot camp, can't enable wifi adapter I installed Windows 8 on my macbook pro (Item No : 8899069, Mftr Part No : MD313LL/A) via boot camp. I installed the boot camp support tools. The wifi adapter says that it is working correctly. However, when I go into the control panel, the wifi adapter is not enabled. When I try to enable it, it says "enabling...", but then goes away. It's not enabled afterwards.

I tried to uninstall the driver, and then repair the support tools. No luck.

I followed these directions, with no luck. I also tried to run setup.exe from these drivers, with no luck. Last, I tried to run setup.exe in compatibility mode, with no luck.

Has anyone been able to get the macbook wifi enabled in Windows 8? It reminds me of a time when I couldn't get my wifi card to work, and then I realized I didn't press the 'enable wifi' button on my pc.

I don't even see an error in the event viewer :(

Has anyone been able to get wifi to work in windows 8?

EDIT: The network card is a Broadcom 802.11n network adapter (as per the device manager)
Try to install the Windows 8.1 driver from this website: Link (or here you have the Download Link directly: download).

One solution would be: 


  
  Boot into OS X
  Select Windows as primary boot partition
  Restart your Mac (it should boot now directly into Windows)
  Restart Windows (NOT turning off. Start > Restart)
  


Second suggestion:


  
  Uninstall the driver completely 
  Restart into OS X
  Then restart into Windows
  


Sometimes the WiFi driver is working after a few minutes. If not: Install the driver from above (from the Download link).

It has something to do with Bootcamp and Mac. This isn't a Windows problem. The driver isn't loading properly. Maybe Apple is going to fix this.
