qualcomm atheros wlan and bluetooth client installation program download windows 8.1

Moving on to my Acer Bluetooth mouse now, which came in the box with the S7 (was only using touchscreen and keypad up to this point), I see nothing in instrux about how to connect the mouse. Very slow download for two items: Intel HD Graphics Driver and Qualcomm Atheros Bluetooth Suite (64) 8.0.0.222, including Qualcomm Atheros WiFi driver installation 11.43. The Acer update manager came up and listed two updates, and I figured it was good to grab those, since who knows when the computer was actually built, etc. Out of the box I got the S7 set up quickly, including W-Fi. Short version is that you may have to take some steps on your own, with no help from Acer update manager or Windows 8. This is long but may help others (since it seems to be a common problem). I have not decided whether to keep it yet (I don't love Win8 yet, but this is an Acer problem - not Win8). Here was my solution to no bluetooth: first, I have an Acer Aspire S7-391 with Windows 8 pre-loaded.

And support apparently doesn't respond or try to help. The Wireless Lan drivers (new) v10.0.0.217.v3 from shoudl be clearly marked as for LAN _and_ Bluetooth. The Bluetooth driver v.0206 from should not be posted. I will recommend to folks that they NOT purchase Acer systems due to poor support. After 1 day of fairly heavy system usage, my mouse seems better. Re-runninng install, and using Repair mode finally got mouse working although this repair lasted more than 5 (scary) minnutes. After 1st 'install' mouse was completely dead. It would be nice if this was clearly described.

loading Wireless Lan drivers (new) v10.0.0.217.v3 from includes later Bluetooth update. It doesn't seem to help mouse disconnect att all and may have even made issue worse loading Bluetooth driver v.0206 from is waste of time.
