Hello,
Does anyone with the newly released Macbook Pro know if the Bootcamp drivers have been updated?
Would someone be willing to upload the driver set they downloaded from Bootcamp assistant to their dropbox or googledrive and send me the link?

Thanks everyone
 
from what happened last time i remember AMD took longer than Apple to stick it on their page. but you're right I bet an update is going to happen any day now
 
looks like it could be for both but i'm not sure. Anywho i've just updated my website to incorporate compatibility for the new Radeon 460, 455 and 450 with the latest Crimson driver release 16.11.3. So now new Macbook Pro owners can also enjoy the latest releases and compatibility for the latest games :) see my signature for the link.

The software catalog has 2 BootCamp packages released on Nov 1st.
So I assume the Touch Bar and the Non Touch Bar's drivers are the same.

So I have the new MBP 15 with touchbar, I was able to get windows 10 to install but for some reason the bootcamp drivers didn't download. In windows 10 mode you can't install the drivers the end in .pkg. Does someone have these drivers available in windows type file extensions so I can download them. Apple is telling me to contact Microsoft for the drivers, 6 hours waste of time today

Is anyone else experiencing issues with wifi and Windows 10? Mine is either dropping nearly instant or its not connecting at all... Really need help with this, as boot camp is hardly usable without any kind of internet connection

Wifi in Windows 10 keeps dropping. I reinstalled Windows, thinking it was a driver error but now it doesn't even want to connect to any network... I'll try downloading the files posted and see if it helps. Anyone else having this issue too?

I was having the same issues with wifi. Would love to know if you find a solution.
 
I installed my 15 Inch yesterday and I have no Problems with Wifi.

If you have drop Outs, you can maybe try other encryption methods. I'm using WPA2 CCMP on my AVM Fritzbox 6490 with 5 GHZ AC-network and everything is smooth. It must be something with the combination of the Network Drivers and certain router Setups.
 
Didn't update yet, but I found out, that attaching dongles causes wifi drops in both Mac OSX and Windows 10. As soon as the dongle is removed, the connection is back.

That and it seems there is no proper usb c to via dongle - one that doesnt cause distortions...


I guess I will have to buy an Apple Dongle now...

I'm using the Apple dongle to connect my wireless mouse and still had wifi drops in Windows 10. However, moving my laptop closer to the router and disconnecting my old laptop did seem to hold the connection and be relatively stable. When I bring my old laptop back to my desk, which is about 3 metres away and not obstructed by anything causes the drops and failure to connect.
 
So what is the consensus here?

Do not install the Bootcamp drivers yet?
Is the AMD driver support as horrendous as predicted?

Mine was dropping wifi about every few minutes and then reconnecting when in bootcamp (not osx). In Windows 10, I opened Device Manager, selected the network adapter, went into power management and un-selected "allow computer to turn off this device to save power". Haven't had any issues since with it since. Hope that helps.
