Hello melma3, Based on the information provided, I assume you are using Windows* 10. First, perform a clean install of the wireless driver by following these steps: Steps: Clean Installation of Wireless Drivers https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000022173/network-and-i-o/wireless-networking.html Driver: For Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265 Windows® 10 Wi-Fi Drivers for Intel® Wireless Adapters Version: 20.120.0 https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/28241/Windows-10-Wi-Fi-Drivers-for-Intel-Wireless-Adapters?product=83635 It is worth noting that the issue described seems to be Access Point / router-sided. If the issue persists, please check the following information: 1. Use other Wi-Fi devices such as a smartphone or tablet to verify if the wireless AP or broadband router is functioning. 2. You may want to reset your modem/router. 3. Update your router firmware. Wanner G. Intel Customer Support Technician Under Contract to Intel Corporation

Hello melma3, If you already performed a clean install of the wireless driver, make sure the adapter is set to Maximum Performance. Setting Power Management for Intel® Wireless Adapters https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000005879/network-and-i-o/wireless-networking.html Were you able to reset your modem/router? Are you able to test other devices (e.g phone) to see if they show the same behavior? Also, check Windows* updates, scan and apply all of them. Make sure Windows* is up to date (e.g Windows 10 October Update (version 1809). Wanner G. Intel Customer Support Technician Under Contract to Intel Corporation

Hello,

 

The problem still on the first boot up of the pc,also can the problem be from windows like it's not compatible with the wireless card?

EDIT: when the problem happend i reconnected the pc to my mobile data and the wifi works fine and smooth,i guess the problem is from the router.

Also,Itried other pc's and they don't have this connection problem.

Hello melma3, Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265 is compatible with Windows* 10, so that should not be an issue. We still do not know the Windows* 10 build you are using. Is it up to date? Wanner G. Intel Customer Support Technician Under Contract to Intel Corporation
