So I have been looking at the following WiFi adapter to replace the existing Qualcomm Atheros AR9485WB-EG with the Intel 7260HMW Wireless AC + Bluetooth 4.0 and wanted to know if anyone else on the forum has done that yet and if they did, what issues did they face?
I lot of comments flew around the web suggesting driver issues / bluetooth issues with the Intel 7260HMW however at the same time, people downloading the drivers directly from Intel seemed to resolve any issues they faced and things worked out well for them.
I'd like replies ideally from people who have actually done this rather than those who have read up about it online. I've also read up about it online so nothing new there.
I'm looking to pick it up from:
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/New-802-11AC-WiFi-BT-4-0-Dual-Band-Mini-PCI-E-Card-7260-7260HMW-Wirel...Looks pretty original to me and every one of the original cards are also made in China. Also the feedback on this particular company and product has been very positive.
Looking forward to hearing from fellow ROG compatriots.
Cheers!
