Optiplex 7040 Network Driver

Post by Cindy1994 »

I recently got an Optiplex 7040 desktop computer, but I'm having trouble finding the network driver for it. I've searched on the Dell support website and even tried a few other driver update software, but I still haven't come across a working link for the driver. Could someone please provide me with a direct download link for the network driver compatible with the Optiplex 7040? Thanks in advance for any assistance!
