Can someone please tell me, what's the correct model of the 7265 network card for my laptop? I believe it's 7265.NGWG.SW, but I'm not sure.

What's the difference between 7265.NGWG.SW and 7265.NGWWB.W?

Thanks,

ole

How to stop Wifi Link 5100 AGN from connecting to a particular wifi device?

$

My Wifi Link 5100 AGN keeps connecting to our hospital's guest wifi, instead of to my Verizon Jetpack Mifi. When I boot up my laptop, it automatically selects the hospital's wifi, but I don't want to use that and have to disconnect from it and connect to my own wireless. Is there any way to tell it NOT to select the hospital's wifi? It will also drop my own wifi halfway through the day without notice and reconnect to the hospital's wifi. Without being aware that it does it, I can end up breaking some of the employee rules about using that wifi! Help!

Intel Wireless Adapter Support for 802.11k, 802.11v, and 802.11r

wireless-AC 7265 slower than old laptop with Atheros 802.11N from the same spot.

my old laptop has a atheros wireless chip inside.

my current laptop has an intel 7265. latest drivers installed.

Both are synced with the router at 150mbps.

 

From the same position on my desk, same TPLINK wr841n N-router, same modem, downloading the same speed test file ..... http://speedtest.choopa.net/1GBtest.bin

 

The intel only gets 700K/s, while the Atheros gets 2900K/s

With 8 parallel threads, I can't even max out my internet connection with the Intel. I get 5300KB/s.

With 2 threads, the Atheros gets 5300K/s, and 3 threads maxes out my connection at 7MB/s.

 

 

Why does the Intel run 4x slower than the atheros? It feels like the Intel is capped.

It's consistently slower. Single thread performance is terrible.

For example, downloading Nvidia driver package, the Intel only does 3.6MB/s, whereas the Atheros maxes the connection out at 7MB/s. The Atheros could probably go faster if I had a faster broadband connection.

 

 

How can I get the Intel to perform similarly to the Atheros

 

I already have the wireless on max power setting in Power options.

What settings and hacks do I need to implement?

 

throughput booster setting does nothing

Intel, PLEASE standardize driver and application version numbers and release dates!

I'm doing a periodic check for driver updates. Every time, the same issue drives me nuts, which is the lack of consistency in the way that Intel assigns version numbers to drivers which are used by the intel driver download website and the intel driver update utility. This applies to many, if not most, intel drivers.

 

For the record, my computer is an HP ZBook G2 laptop with Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 (wifi and Bluetooth). I have discussed drivers with HP support and they have no problem with users downloading drivers from the Intel, rather than from the HP website or using the HP support assistant utility. A related issue is why the wifi and Bluetooth parts of this chipset are decoupled requiring separate drivers. If they are separate products, why not separate them in the software download center?

 

Here are some examples relating to the wifi and Bluetooth device.

 

First from the device manager:

Next from Programs and Features:

Note the inconsistency with the device manager.

Note the inconsistency with the device manager, and it even reports two different versions!!!!

 

Next from the Intel driver update utility:

The intel driver update utility can't even figure out what version the Bluetooth driver is! It thinks it's the same as the wifi!

 

Next from the file manager:

I hope this is enough evidence that this issue is real and needs to be fixed.

 

If that's not enough, the website reports newer driver versions for the wifi than the driver update utility:

The version recommended by the intel driver update utility isn't even shown on the driver download website! Why are these shown as applications when they are drivers?

 

Note also the application, version 3.1.1311, dated 2014. What is this item?

 

If I filter only drivers, the only items are drivers for the Bluetooth, none for wifi!!!!

When I see this sort of garbage from the Intel, I can't help but wonder how the company can claim to have anything remotely referred to as a software documentation and release methodology.

Hello,

I want to disable the RF Bluetooth function of the module by using a software mechanism called SW RF Kill with Windows 7 x64Bit. In the Intel docs there is text like "StP SD also supports Bluetooth SW RF Kill". But how can I implement that in Windows 7?

Wireless-AC 7265 BSOD Error

Hello all,

 

I've had some issues with my wireless AC 7265 adapter. I noticed it was intermittently losing connection or losing major speed. I made the changes recommended here: Re: AC-7265 Frequent disconnects/Painfully slow when connected

 

and so far I haven't that issue occur again.


However, earlier today I had a BSoD (blue screen of death) error (Driver_IRQL_not_less_or_equal netwtw02.sys) that forced my laptop to shut down and lose my work. I am wondering if there is a fix in the works or if anyone else has had this issue. I have the most current driver installed (18.30.0.9).

 

For more information on this, see here: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-performance/driverirqlnotlessorequal-netwtw02sys/8947ed87-1213-41ef-b46b-e61b6373f509

 

This is a brand new laptop and it has had a lot of driver issues so it has been a little frustrating.


AC 8260 Bluetooth Audio Sample Rate

Product Name: Elitbook 1040 G3 Notebook

Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

 

I recently switched to a HP Elitebook 1040 G3  with Windows 7 Professional 64-bit from an older Elitebook 8470p. I am loving the upgrade with a few exceptions. When I connect a bluetooth headset (I have tried 3 now) and go into Sounds -> Playback Devices -> Bluetooth Headset -> Proeprties -> Advanced I am unable to change the sample rate under default format. It is locked at 1 channel, 8000 Hz (Telephone Quality). I connected the headphones to my old laptop (Elitbook 8470p) and they work great.

 

I figured this was a driver issue so I updated to the latest drivers on the HP site for my Intel AC 8260 wireless card as well as the latest bluetooth drivers. I then uninstalled the drivers and loaded the latest ones directly from Intel and there was no change. I then uninstalled and loaded the previous set of drivers from Intel, again with no improvement.

 

Please help. I need stereo bluetooth audio to get through my work day.

AC 7265 Issues

Hi all,

 

As many others in these forums I have issues with my Lenovo branded laptops using Intels 7265 wifi NIC, how ever most are all relating to Windows 10, I still use Windows 7 Pro.

 

I cannot seem to install 18.40 drivers, when I do, the installation process completes without errors, but driver isn't changing, no matter what version I had previous.

 

Tested with the 17.x driver, update to 18.40 will update the software, but not the drivers, no matter if I use Lenovos system update tool or the drivers found here.

Latest version I can install that would update the drivers is 18.33

 

I get BSOD with 7E or 1D (or is it D1), all related to NDIS.sys or the NETWFW02.sys

I can get it stop casting BSOD by disabling the WiFi, but that wont do us much good when working from home where WIFI would be used.

 

All affected machines are at latest BIOS. Intel management firmware is also latest. All windows security patches have been installed.

None of the posts I have read here mentions much about the environment, so heres my specs, hoping someone can help me out:

 

2,4ghz networks only. Fixed channel, multiple APs with same channel and SSID

Current driver: 18.33

Files: bdupflt.sys (Bitdefender filter driver), netwfw02.sys, netwfw02.dat, vwifibus.sys

 

Machine: Lenovo T550, 20CK

Intel Advanced-N 6235 and Windows 10

$

First off, there's some problems with the Windows 10 driver downloads redirecting me to a 404 page.

 

Secondly, the windows 10 drivers for the 6235 are having some issues. I've installed the most recent Bluetooth software as well as the new WiFi software (which I had to install via the IT zip file). The error I'm describing, however, occurs both with the old drivers and the new ones.

 

It seems that there is some sort of bluetooth bug. Playing over bluetooth speakers, the sound speeds up, slows down, and is generally distorted. Restarting the computer seems to solve the issue for a few minutes at most. Disabling WiFi and restarting has the same effect, but eventually it comes back. The problem gets worse when actually using the WiFi to access websites. Setting WiFi off seems to solve the issue.

Intel Advanced-N 6235 Bluetooth not working in Windows 10

I just upgraded to Windows 10 last night.  I have an Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235 wi-fi/bluetooth combo card in my laptop.  Windows 10 recognized the wi-fi portion of the card and installed the proper driver for that; however, I see nothing about Bluetooth anywhere in my Device Manager.  I looked through the info on Intel® Wi-Fi Products — Which Intel Wireless Products Support Windows® 10? and I see that the 6235 is supported.  According to one of the articles on that page, I just need to install the Bluetooth driver.  If I click on that link, it takes me to the download page for the PROSet download page for Bluetooth, but Windows 10 isn't listed anywhere on that page.  I tried installing the 8.1 driver and that didn't seem to do anything.  Anyone have advice?

Hi.

 

I am new on this forum, sorry if it was already answered on some previous topic, I didnt found anything like this.

 

I would like to ask you how can I enable my AC 7265 to use both bands (2 and 5 GHz) at same time?

 

Also, I cant see any option related to the wireless mode = "C" technology, please see the attached file.

2016-05-07 (1).png

I am using the driver 18.33.0.1 (05/01/2016) on Windows 10.

 

Any suggestion?

 

Thanks everyone!!!!

Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235 card working slowly on Windows 10

I have a few years old Samsung Ultrabook laptop, which has an Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235 Wifi and Bluetooth card.

After updating to Windows 10 I haven't been reaching proper Wifi speeds with my laptop. At the moment I can get 50/50 down/up from my Wifi

with my cellphone or my tablet or an another laptop, but with this one I get something like 7-15/10 down/up. I've tried to install the Windows 8.1.

drivers (version 18.40.0) but they dont seem to install, since in the Device manager I seem to always see the Windows 10 native drivers (version 15.18.0.1).

Hi Guys,

 

I really need your help. I bought the new Aorus X5 Laptop a couple days ago. With it comes a AC8260 as wifi chip. It's not working very well to say the least.

I'm having a lot of connection issue. I'm losing a lot of pings and the ms are high for most of the time. Then the connection get lost again. I can't fix this problem by my own. I already tried a couple solutions for other chips mentioned here or in other forums. At the moment I'm using the driver version 18.32.1.2.

 

Please let me know what kind of information I need to provide to get this tackled somehow.

 

Regards

Dear forum members,

 

in my Dell XPS 13 Developer Edition is built in a networking card:

3a:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless 8260 (rev 3a)

 

To let the wifi properly work i downloaded manually the firmware files:

-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1745176  4. Feb 12:23 /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-8000C-13.ucode

-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 2351636  4. Feb 12:23 /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-8000C-16.ucode

-rw-rw-r--. 1 root root 2390004 14. Mai 21:45 /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-8000C-17.ucode

-rw-rw-r--. 1 root root 2381764 14. Mai 21:45 /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-8000C-18.ucode

-rw-rw-r--. 1 root root 2383144 14. Mai 21:45 /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-8000C-19.ucode

-rw-rw-r--. 1 root root 2383328 14. Mai 21:45 /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-8000C-20.ucode

-rw-rw-r--. 1 root root 2394060 14. Mai 21:43 /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-8000C-21.ucode

 

I will describe my issue more detailed. I enable my bluetooth in gnome 3.18.2 which properly shows bt devices in range.

I let pair the device successfully and the mouse is working as expected. Then after a while a couple of minutes less than

10 and both stuck, the mouse never moves anymore the wifi has 100% packet loss. This can just solved by turning off and

turning on again, so i can at least say i tried this common scenario.

I've attached the dmesg output which contains all messages around the issues.

 

It would be great to solve this problem. I also will provide all necessary information to help solving this.

 

Thank you very much

Daniel
