I did an upgrade from Windows 8.1 with bing to windows 10 home

but when i upgraded to windows 10 would see the network adapter

in device manager but it doesnt know what to do with it

i installed the drivers from intel's website and still no luck

So just to confirm, Windows 10 doesn't seem to have the driver for the network adapter? I'm assuming it's the Realtek wireless adapter driver you're talking about in this case. Try right-clicking on it in Device Manager and clicking Uninstall, checking the box to delete the driver software. Restart, then do a fresh install of the newest driver available from Intel (you probably already have this downloaded, but just in case)

So what does your Device Manager look like right now? Can you post a screenshot?

Weird as it may seem, one workaround for this appears to be to uninstall the driver completely (again), then restart. Then, run the installer in Windows 8 compatibility mode (right-click the installer, click Properties, go to the Compatibility tab, select "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" and make sure Windows 8 is selected). It's dumb, but a similar issue was resolved this way by suggestion from a Microsoft engineer that seems to have actually worked for a number of cases.
