Hi aleki_intel

Sorry for the late reply, been busy for last few days. I bought this dell laptop with DOS pre-installed. I later installed Win 7 and was able to get all the drivers except for Wireless Network device. It shows as Unknown Driver in Device Manager. So I tried searching on google using the Hardware Id . It look similar to Intel® Centrino® Ultimate-N6300 however take a note of my Hardware Id once again

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_422B&SUBSYS_00008086&REV_1A

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_422B&SUBSYS_00008086

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_422B&CC_028000

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_422B&CC_0280

The SUBSYS ID is 00008086 . The Drivers I found for Intel® Centrino® Ultimate-N6300 online doesnt have SUBSYS ID as 00008086 . They have SUBSYS ID something like 11218086 etc (not 00008086) .

So can you please point me to the correct drivers for my device.

Hello Naineesh,

The Intel® Centrino® Ultimate-N6300 comes in the dual and single band versions. Intel recommends that you always try the computer manufacturer driver first: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/topics/OEMs.html Computer Manufacturer Support Websites - Also, It is important that you confirm this piece of information before getting the drivers in order to make sure you are getting the right ones. As a second option, here are our generic driver versions found in our download center:
