Realtek 8187B Disconnect

Post by Lorie96 »

I recently encountered an issue with my Realtek 8187B wireless adapter, as it keeps disconnecting intermittently. I suspect that updating the driver might solve this problem, but unfortunately, I have been unable to find a reliable source to download the latest driver version. I have already searched extensively on the official Realtek website, as well as various reputable driver download websites, but to no avail. Could someone kindly provide me with a trustworthy link to download the updated driver for the Realtek 8187B wireless adapter? Thank you in advance!
