Note the highlighted part about no driver support for w10.
Msft will support w7 until 2020 so you have another 4 years.

I am using DELL Inspiron One 2310 All-in-One computer which now runs on Windows 7 Home Edition 64 Bit OS. This is about four years old now, and runs flawlessly, and in full speed. I have received Windows 10 upgrade. When I performed the compatibility test, I get this message: "Device manufacturers haven't made this device compatible with Windows 10, so they will cause problem. Check with manufacturers for support. You might not be able to connect to the Internet" The device in question is "Broadcom Virtual Wireless Adopter". Is there any remedy for this problem? Since, the incompatibility problem would apply to all computers using the above adopter, the problem is not specific to my computer. Therefore, I see little point in contacting the manufacturer. Is there any remedy for this problem? Or, should I chuck Windows 10, and continue with Windows 7? I would be grateful for any input on this issue. Many thanks.

is to replace the Broadcom card and replace it with something like an Intel (amazon) or buy a USB adapter. Otherwise you can stay with Windows 7.
