Hel!o!

Seems to be there is a serious bug in BCM43xx adapter firmware (MacBook Pro 15 mid 2014) resulting in failed S3 resume initialization (wake-up from Sleep) under Windows 10.

Detection algorithm:

1. Using Device Manager completely uninstall Broadcom 802.11ac network driver with option 'Delete the driver software for the device'.

2. Press 'Scan for hardware changes' button to detect device instance named as 'Network Adapter' and select 'View' -> 'Show hidden devices' from menu, so you can see only one 'Network Adapter' device.

3. Put your computer into sleep mode by selecting 'Power' -> 'Sleep' from start menu and some times later resume it by pressing space bar for eg. Now you can see another detected (duplicated) 'Network Adapter' device instance as active, but the first one becomes inactive. This is because failed adapter firmware initialization on S3 resume.

4. Reboot your computer, open Device Manager again with 'View' -> 'Show hidden devices' option to see (vice versa) the first 'Network Adapter' device instance as active, but another one (duplicated) becomes inactive. As a result you always have annoying problem with wi-fi network connection after sleep mode until reboot.

Of course you can repeat steps with Broadcom 802.11ac network driver installed, it doesn't matter, because the Apple should provide us with firmware update to solve this hardware problem.

Any other ideas?

Best Regards.
