AC 7260 Driver for USB Restore (Server 2012)

Hello

I have a Dell XPS 11 laptop which uses the Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 + Bluetooth 4.0 adapter

I also have a server running Server 2012 which I use to make daily backups of my home computers

Problem - I need to a full system restore of the DELL XPS and when I boot the USB restore key - it can't find the server because it can't find any network devices on the XPS

(I ran into a similar problem with my Intel NUC but eventually found the proper driver to get it working)

So what I am looking for is the driver files that I can copy to the restore key to enable the network card so I can connect to my server. Factory OS for the XPS is 8.1 but I don't think it should matter

Any Ideas?
