My model is NP-R519-JA06UK. How did you find the driver downloads as i cannot find them but it might be due to me using my phone.
the long second link is directly to the driver......Gettin' There, Wherever There is......
I have a dodgy "i" key, so ignore spelling errors due to "i" issues, ...I blame Apple0 -
According to the specific link for your model, the WiFi card might need either Qualcomm Atheros WLAN Driver ver 1.0.0.1, Windows 7(32bit,64bit) or Wireless LAN,ATHEROS ver 9.2.0.470, Windows 7(32bit,64bit). (Both are direct links to the respective ZIP files).0

I would avoid those like the plague, they not only install stuff you do not need (as reported in this very forum) but they are loaded with PUPS.

Just find the WAN card in device manager, it will either be an unknown device or it will be in Network adapters and be yellow or red.
Connect an ethernet cable and see if you can get it to be found automatically by searching from device manager
Or open up the laptop and see what model it is and get the bona fide driver.
After did an scan withmalwarebytes and found nothing.
2 weeks later scanned with malware byres and it was clean, then a second scan with AwCleaner and found 4 pups from a new firefox addon
Just did a virus total and got this, so fairly sure it is clean.

Drivers have always been a pita to find!0 -

I think that long link is the one, there are other that are older,
The site is pretty naff design, not surprised you did not find it, you have to click on driver then do that awful scrolling to the Manual Download, that is because Samsung has some auto download manager, you can get that too if you want.

I to have a samsung n50e7c. Guys, think twice about using the drivers on samsung's site, they are often old. Samsung just sell consumer products, and offer little aftercare and are not interested in it - unlike HP and dell whom usually do.
There is samsung software that will check your drivers and install samsungs latest old driver version your PC. Was installed on mine but removed it, I'm fairly sure yours will have a version too
You need to go to the chipset supplier and get the drivers from there.0
