I've watched many videos on this topic but not one fixed my problem. tried resetting IP and didn't work. my surface pro 2 doesn't show any networks available even though before the update it was fine and showed all of the available networks. when I open my network from the control panel I cannot see my own device . and the main issue that comes up is it can't detect any networking hardware. how do I download drives when I can't hook up to internet. please help
 
Solution
You can also download drivers on another PC, and moving them on a PC, or straight onto your (Android) phone, and plugging it into the Surface.

I'm sure you've read posts like this one about obtaining Surface-specific Windows 10 drivers.
