Broadcom wireless driver for Retina to get WiFi working under Windows 8?

Hello,

The problem is Apple doesn't provide a Boot Camp driver set for the Retina MacBook Pro yet. I had to use the Broadcom wireless driver from my SNB MacBook Pro to get WiFi working under Windows. Unfortunately, NVIDIA doesn't offer a downloadable GeForce GT 650M driver for either Windows 7 or Windows 8 just yet. The R302 Verde drivers are supposed to be due out in the not too distant future with support for the 650M, but until then you're mostly out of luck.  Just as before, switchable graphics isn't functional under Windows – the discrete GPU (650M) is the only one exposed.

I just replied to you from my own experience. So now you can also visit https://images.anandtech.com/ to know more details about it.

Thanks.
