Welcome to the HP Community Hope you are doing well. So, do I need to replace the physical wifi card or is there any other solution to try? The connection doesn't show up at all in Network Connections anymore. I tried resetting the IP address but got an error, I also tried to boot in Safe Mode and that did nothing.Īt this point, the Intel wireless driver on shows up in device manager when I choose the show hidden drivers. I have tried changing the power setting, it was already on max power.

I did a system restore back to last week, when a Windows update was done and that didn't solve anything. I have uninstalled and reinstalled drivers from Intel and HP twice. I have done almost every suggestion I could find online to fix this issue. Then the section for Wifi didn't show up at all. At first, I couldn't get the wifi switch to stay on in Network & Connections. And it would fix itself and stay on, but Tuesday I only got it to work twice for about 30 mins each time. It would usually just have that little asterisk near it. Starting back in November of last year, it seemed like every other day, or every two days, I would have to troubleshoot the wifi connection to get it to work. Instead of the standard wifi icon, it was a box with a red x in it. Vermagic: 3.14.On Tuesday night I booted up my notebook and saw that the wifi wasn't working. Still not solved.I installed the fresh released 3.14 mainline kernel.no 5GHz BandĠ4:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless 7260 (rev 6b)įilename: /lib/modules/3.14.0-1-mainline/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwlwifi.ko.gzĪuthor: Copyright(c) 2003- 2014 Intel Corporation ĭescription: Intel(R) Wireless WiFi driver for LinuxĪlias: pci:v00008086d0000095Asv*sd00005490bc*sc*i* To anyone with the same problem, if you must use the 5GHz band there's two options: Downgrade your kernel version or buy a different card (the dual-band 7260 costs about $25). It seems that the new kernel simply identified the card correctly, so it only allows the card to pick up 2.4GHz networks, as its supposed to. I swapped out an Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205 from my old laptop. The drivers for the single-band version just have the 5GHz band deactivated. I assume that all three versions can pick up AC networks as well. So, apparently the Dual Band and single-band versions of the Wireless-N 7260 are the same piece of hardware. The wireless card inside of my laptop was in fact the single-band 7260. The Toshiba Satellite P55 requires you to remove the whole bottom panel to access anything inside. I eventually hung up, as the conversation led nowhere. He came just short of accusing me of lying, and I came just short of offering to send him a video of the card picking up 5GHz networks. I also told him several times that the Intel Web site reports my card as the AC version. I assured him that my laptop is able to see 5GHz networks in Linux.

After asking for the laptop's serial number, the representative insisted that my model comes with the single-band 7260, not the dual-band version. I don't have an AC router, so it's impossible to determine if my card picks up AC networks. Note that there are three versions of the 7260: single-band, dual-band, and AC. The the utility detected my card as the AC version of the 7260. at the time had plenty of those.įrom Windows, I used the driver update utility from the Intel Web site.
I assumed it was a driver issue, as Windows 8.1. In Windows, the card has only picked the 2.4GHz networks from the first day I bought the laptop. This issue has been resolved, though not in the way that I wanted.
