Hello,

I´m looking for the latest driver for the Intel dual band wireless-n 7260 for Windows 10 64bit. The official support pages are not available (404). It would be very nice if anyone could tell me a download link. (f.e. url )

Thanks and best regards,

Christian

I need more information. Please download and run the Intel System Support Utility for Windows. When you start the tool, select Everything and then click on Scan. Once it completes the scan process, click on Next and then Save. Pick a name for the text file to create and click on Save to create it. You can then close the app. Finally, open a response post here and then, using the Drag and drop here or browse files to attach dialog (below the edit box for the body of your response post), upload and attach this text file to the response post.

Dear N Scott.
I really appreciate your help.
This driver is completely what i want and it works perfect.
Before i ask this file to my laptops company but they dont have any ideas to fix it and just recommended to buy new one.
So i almost give up to use wifi by this laptop. But you save it and save my wallet too! Lol
Thanks to god to meet you at here.
Have a wonderful days!

Hi. I also need the latest version of the wireless AC-7260 driver. As this WiFi adapter supports also Bluetooth i need the AC-7260 Bluetooth Driver as well. Thank you very much.

Hi Scott,

I see that many of us have the AC7260 driver issue in Win10x64. My Dell laptop cannot see an AX router, but other devices can. Can you send this to me as well?

Thank much!

I need to re-install the AC 7260 driver on an old Windows 8.1 64-bit laptop.

The 'WiFi_Intel_Win81_64_VER17015' driver install package on this site is installing a driver dated 2014 and is crashing. I'm pretty sure what I had last installed was more recent, dated 2019 (maybe through Windows updates), but I was trying to solve a problem and uninstalled it, not realizing I can't easily get access to it again. 

If you have something for Win8.1 x64, I'd really like to try it out. Thank you!

I forgot to mention, if I could also get the Win10 x64 driver, it would be much appreciated. I've been unsuccessful on a couple of attempts at upgrading that laptop to Win10 because of some update failure, but if I ever succeed, it would be good to have the corresponding AC 7260 driver.

So, I managed to get myself sorted out by using the Microsoft Windows update catalog. For anyone else interested in trying this, you can go to https://catalog.update.microsoft.com and search for 'AC 7260' and any other keywords for your setup. I also used the freeware 'Snappy Driver Installer Origin' to detect the missing driver (after I uninstalled it) and show the hardware IDs to add to the keyword search to narrow it down but that might not be necessary. I just wanted to be totally sure I was getting compatible drivers. There were a number of versions to pick from dating back to 2013. I picked the latest driver 18.33.17.1 dated 2019-04-29 and things are working okay now.

 

Scott, I still wouldn't mind getting whatever latest you have for Win8.1 and Win10, just in case. Thanks.

Hi, Scott

I'm really sorry to bother you with, what I think is #63rd request, but I just can't find those drivers anywhere else. If you could send me newest drivers for "Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260" that would be great! I am really disappointed with Intel for removing downloads for discontinued products. In my case, my cousin was considering buying new laptop only because his laptop does not detect new wifi network. He's not tech-savvy and I believe that there are more people with similar problems. You are really saving peoples money and older working devices from being thrown out, thank you for that!

I'd also like the latest driver for Windows 10 and the Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260.  I'm having all kinds of trouble finding it anywhere.  I reloaded Windows 10 on my laptop and it's now my wireless is unstable. Thanks a ton!
