Can someone point me in the correct direction for the wireless network drivers for the ASUS  Z170-A?

 

It's kind of crazy that this isn't included on the CD. It seems the latest driver for the WI-FI Go! only goes up to ASUS-DELUXE...

 

Many thanks in advance.

Thank you for that absolutely unhelpful and generic advice. I've already taken a look on there and am finding it hard to locate the correct method...

Sorry, you didn't say that you checked. I don't think the Z170-A has wifi built in anyway.

The Asus Z170-A doesn't have onboard wifi. Find your wireless drivers for your adapter/card on the manufacturers website.

No luck... I can't seem to find it among the multitude of options.

 

Also, take a look at the product https://www.asus.com/uk/Motherboards/Z170-A/

 

Promotes the wi-fi go feature.

Wifi go isn't a driver, its an utility found within Asus's AISuite software. https://www.asus.com/support/faq/1012149#A4

What exactly are you talking about? The Z170-A doesn't have a wifi card, you must have been looking at z170-deluxe or z170-premium. Since you have the physical mobo, you can look at it's IO ports, you won't see any wifi antennas or antenna ports there.
