7265.NGWG.W I checked spec’s but could not find reference to station/AP/wifi direct modes. Can you confirm that these modes are supported? Thanks!

JMull20, Thank you for posting in the Intel® Communities Support. We will do further research to verify if in fact the Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265 card supports station/AP/wifi direct modes, as soon as I get the confirmation I will post all the details in this thread.

JMull20, I just received an update on this matter. In reference to your question, WiFi direct is supported as you can confirm in the following link under technical specifications, it requires Windows* 8.1/10: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/wireless-products/dual-band-wireless-ac-7265-brief.html Station is also supported. AP is not supported, however, it supports soft AP or mobile hotspot on Windows*. Regards, Alberto R. Intel Customer Support Technician Under Contract to Intel Corporation

JMull20, I just received an update on this matter.

 

If you are using a laptop, the best thing to do will be to get in contact with the manufacturer of the laptop, they should be able to provide the models of Intel® Wireless cards that are supported by the computer.

 

Once you get those details, you can either use the following link to compare and choose which one is the one that you prefer, or you can always let us know the models that are supported by the laptop and we will confirm if they support AP as well:

Alberto,

 

Hi. This is for a custom Single Board Computer. They use Windows 10. I am not sure what the best steps to take are. Thanks for your help!

JMull20, Thank you very much for letting us know those details.

 

In this case, since you are using a custom Single Board Computer, we cannot guarantee that any on the Intel® Wireless cards will work with your platform, we cannot guarantee that they will be fully compatible and that all the features they have will work with your system.

 

After doing further research we gather a list of Intel® Wireless cards that are similar, not the same, to the one that you are using, but that might not be compatible with your computer:

Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 8265:

Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 8260:

Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265:

Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260:

Are you a designer of laptops?

Is there any project that you are developing?

JMull20, I just wanted to provide another suggestion for this case.

 

Since you are using a custom Single Board Computer, if you have the option to find out the model of the motherboard being used, you can always get in contact directly with the manufacturer of it to gather the list of Intel® wireless cards that are fully compatible with it, then depending on the models showing in that list we will be able to verify if they support AP as well.

 

Any other inquiry, please let us know.
