  Drivers come from the NIC vendors, or from the OEM using the NIC. If you want this NIC to be supported on Windows Server 2016 you will need to contact Qualcomm.

  Hi,

  The window server 2016TP4 is a new operating system for window server.

  You could contact the NIC manufacturer to get more help.

  Thanks for your understanding.

  Best regards

  Thanks for that. The file win10-10.0.0.318-whql.zip works on Windows 10 64bit and probably would install on WS2016TP4 but for some sort of symbol declaration in the line.

  "ServiceBinary   = %12%\athw10x.sys" the %12% should be "Windows\System32\drivers" I think its the path to the other OS drivers that's translating wrongly

  If you try and alter the file a checksum error occurs. So leaving to WHQL to get this working

  Thanks again

  Hi there. I just ran into the same problem today, and solved it instaling the Windows feature "Wireless LAN Service", rebooting the machine and after that, the network adapter showed as installed on device manager.I also manually started the "WLAN AutoConfig" service. Qualcomm Atheros AR9485 Wireless Network Adapter working fine on WS2016TP4.

  You should not be using TP4.  Use the released software - it was released a couple months ago.  https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/evaluate-windows-server-2016

  You still need to contact Qualcomm to get their Windows Server 2016 driver. Also make sure your BIOS and firmware are up to date.

  Thanks

  Now it can work on WS2016

  I ignore reinstall driver

  because I think start the "WLAN AutoConfig" service after that the Network Adapter can working on WS2016

  Now I reinstall driver it can working on WS2016

  Moreover, my WS2016 is up to date,and BIOS isn't up to date,it can working.
