Intel published this revocation list about the AC-7260 and other wics containing a firmware/driver bug September 2013. It's now December 2015, and this WIC has been beyond broken this entire time. There's no fix, no device settings that will change this. To trigger the bug you just need a little wireless contention, like going to a Hotel.

When will we see a fix, if ever? I've seen other Intel employees saying turn it off and on again, however this is beyond disgusting.

Lenovo Yoga, Windows 8.1, the Intel Article covers this pretty well. When is a fix going to ship for this extraordinarily well known and described issue?

Aleki, as stated a number of times, and in the articles, this is Windows 8.1. This was reproduced on Windows 10 right above your post as well.
Please stop trolling.

OP, what symptom are you experiencing? I've never heard of this before, but I experience frequent inexplicable hangs of IE11. I'm wondering if this might have something to do with it.

darylm if you do something as simple as `ping -t 4.2.2.1` and browse the web, the condition will be reproduced (wireless frame dropouts without losing sync to the AP). If not, try going to a Denny's or Hotel, or using a shared WAP. I still find it completely bizarre that aleki_intel didn't bother to even read the OP, to see that there's a news release describing the issue, and that it is indeed not fixed.
When will this critical issue be resolved? I'm constantly VPNing into customer environments, and I'm sure these wireless controllers are being used in health. Why has this taken 2+ years and there's still not even close to a recommendation nor fix from Intel? I used to recommend Intel to everyone, I was burned recently by the X710, and now this Wireless NIC; what happened intel_admin?

Why was closed? This is the exact described issue. There are hundreds of threads about this product and model not working.
This summarized the issue quite well, and linked to 6 other threads on the Intel board alone. On the Ubuntu boards, and elsewhere this shows the product to be completely broken. Why has this not been fixed?
