Unable to update drivers with windows update

Recently we have noticed that intel drivers like wifi, bluetooth are not getting updated through windows update. Current wifi driver was updated in march/april and we still have drivers back from october/november.

 

There's no optional update available. Am I missing something, how can as IT admin I can bulk update these drivers for my organization?

 

Thankyou in Advance

Hello Maddie01,  


  

Thank you for posting on the Intel® communities. I am sorry to know that you are having issues with your wireless adapter.   


  

In order to better assist you, please provide the following:  


1. Can you update the driver manually without issues?

2. What is the brand and model name of your wireless adapter?

3. Do you get any errors when trying to install the driver from a Windows update?

4. Is this issue recent?

5. What is the operating system installed as well as the version and build?

Hi DeividA,

 

Thank you for your response. 

1. Can you update the driver manually without issues?

Yes, I have installed intel DS&A and can manually update it but unfortunately, for staff that would be extra and as admin to keep it all patched need better solution.

2. What is the brand and model name of your wireless adapter?

Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160MHz

3. Do you get any errors when trying to install the driver from a Windows update?

Update is not even available in windows update!

4. Is this issue recent?

I think this is an ongoing issue as current installed driver is from October/November where as intel's latest is from March

5. What is the operating system installed as well as the version and build?
