There’s a new round of driver updates for the Surface Book and Surface Pro 4, rolling out a Windows Update chute near you. This is the third driver update for SB and SP4 so far this month, with a major release on May 9, followed by a smaller update on May 16, and now this update, dated May 24.
If I count correctly, the Surface Book and Surface Pro 4 have had 12 driver/firmware updates since their release last October: Oct. 23, 2015; Nov. 2; Nov. 18; Dec. 2; Dec. 17; Jan. 27, 2016; Feb. 17; Mar. 15; Apr. 19; May 9; May 16; and now May 24. Microsoft seems to have shaken off most of its debilitating Surfacegate hardware problems (see Paul Thurrott’s description) in April, but the complaints continue.
- If you are facing problems connecting to the Internet on your Surface tablet, it is more likely there are some problems with the Marvell Avastar Wireless-AC Network Controller driver. It is the main wireless interface driver in your Microsoft Surface tablet that is used to connect to wireless networks.
- Surface Pro 3 network adapter failure. 'The Marvell AVASTAR Wireless-AC Network Controller adapter is experiencing driver- or hardware-related problems' This makes it impossible to connect to any networks, as there is no physical Ethernet port on an SP3.
- Nov 15, 2016 Microsoft Surface Pro 3; Updated to Windows 10, Driver Issues. The Marvell AVASTAR Wireless-AC Network Controller is listed in Device Manager but I have zero network adapters listed. After Upgrading to Windows 10 on Surface Pro 3 the WiFi stopped working and Network Settings reported the Marvell Wireless Hardware.
- These updates include one for the driver of the Marvell Wi-Fi AC controller called 'Marvell Semiconductor, Inc. Driver update for Marvell AVASTAR Wireless-AC Network Controller.' If I reboot and apply this update, I will lose my Wi-Fi connector.
- Home » Marvell AVASTAR Wireless-AC Network Controller Use the links on this page to download the latest version of Marvell AVASTAR Wireless-AC Network Controller drivers. All drivers available for download have been scanned by antivirus program.
- Download Marvell AVASTAR Wireless-N Network controller v. 65 For solving a surface wireless connection issue, I tried to delete the wireless adapter and wanted to refresh the driver. Finally it seems Windows RT can't recongnize the wireless adapter automatically.
Remarkably, as of very early Wednesday morning the Surface Pro 4 update history site has details about the patches:

Dan Thorp-Lancaster at Windows Central relays a tip from one of WC’s twitter followers, Jesse Cook, that clicking on the More Info link in the Windows Update dialog takes you to a new Driver Information site. Although there’s nothing on the site (“Driver Information: Coming Soon”), it’s a tantalizing hint that maybe we’re going to get detailed changelogs for more of Microsoft’s drivers.
