Re: Intel Dual Band-N 7260 - Bluetooth Problem

TDas · ‎05-28-2014

Hi,

I'm using a Dell Inspiron 7537 with Intel Dualband N 7260 wifi card.

I'm facing problem to use the bluetooth, like incomplete pairing with bluetooth devices; after initial pairing it connects to internet to install some driver, and then the device is showing driver error. I tried with switching off internet, but then it's showing incomplete set up.

I tried with generic windows driver as well as latest intel driver (17.0.1401.422), but no success.

After checking the post by other users, it seems this issue is present for long, but Intel developers are unable to fix it.

I dont understand why intel or Dell use such cheap products in high end laptops.

Not only bluetooth but also the wifi on this 7260 cards is headache....some time it feels like i should throw this intel card to thrash bin and get a good quality Atheros card.

Hey Intel folks, tell me if you guys can fix it or should i remove it and purchase something useful.

Tdas777, thanks for contacting us through the Intel Communities.

Regarding your issue, could you please let me know if you have the same behavior when connecting any other device?

Which operating system are you using?

TDas · ‎05-29-2014

@sylvia_intel

Yes with other devices, it's behaving similar.

Windows 8.1 update 1

Silvia_L_Intel1 · ‎05-30-2014

Tdas777 which other device did you test?

TDas · ‎05-30-2014

Well I tried with:

Razer Orochi 2013 BT mouse

Phone: Nokia N8, Nokia 5130, Nokia 5800, Sony Ericsson Naite

Nokia BH505 headset

A coworker tried this on Friday and he was able to paired two different cell phones to a computer using the same wireless adapter model.

I'm wondering if you could check the Microsoft event viewer on your system. You may find an error code or some helpful information in order to find out what is causing this behavior.

Please let me know.

Which driver version was his wifi on?

Silvia_L_Intel1 · ‎06-04-2014

Tdas777, we were using Wireless_17.0.2 version.

TDas · ‎06-05-2014

sylvia_intel

Yes, me too...

Silvia_L_Intel1 · ‎06-06-2014

Tdas777, before we escalate this to the engineer team would you please test driver version 17.0.3

Hi,

Today I again installed Dell driver, this time it's working.

sylvia_intel

Hi,

I didn't notice earlier; but the link you posted, is for wireless adapter (wifi)!!

Do you want me to update wifi driver to that version??

Currently Installed driver version is 17.0.2.5

Kevin_M_Intel · ‎09-30-2014

Hi tdas777,

I would like to know some more information about the configuration you have so can you attach your dxdiag report here?

How to get it?

Dxdiag Report: Type dxdiag in Start Menu> open> Save> Attach using Advanced Editor Options.

Can you also provide the driver version installed on the computer?

Thank you for providing the information.

Please try uninstalling the wireless and Bluetooth driver and download the latest drivers:

Wireless:

https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=24168 https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=24168

Bluetooth:

https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=24191 https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=24191

It is important to update the BIOS to the latest. I also recommend you running all windows updates after installing our drivers.
