Having issues connecting to iphone using Lenovo X1 carbon with Intel Wireless-AC 7260 Adapter. Updating driver from version 16.6.0.8 to 17.16.0.4 seems to improve the issue but I don't see in the update log where these types of isssues were fixed. Is there a way to get more detail about what was fixed in each update of the driver? I also have some great wireshark output showing the adapter seeming to get confused on how to find its network peers and route traffic is anyone wants to see it.

Justinsha,

Could you please provide more details on what it is you want to do?

Is this wireless adapter the original one that came installed in your computer ?

Where did you get the latest driver from?

*If the wireless card is the one that came installed in your computer when you bought it, all drivers must be updated from Lenovo* Support Page.

Does it find and connect to any other wireless network?

What OS is running on this computer?

What iPhone* model are you using?
