T60P with Intel 7260AC dropping connection.

#1 Post by pboneal » Wed Jul 15, 2015 9:25 pm

Is anyone using this wireless card with a T60P (2623)? I modded the bios and it worked but had trouble resuming the network connection when I opened the lid. Other than that it worked fine. I played around with the drivers using the latest from Intel and even a few older ones but now the laptop drops the connection about every 10-15 minutes. I wish I could get it back to just trouble resuming or even better, working like it did with the N card.

Which router do you have?

Is the "power saving" option disabled in the card's properties?

Asus RT-AC68U and every other device in the house works flawlessly. I'll have to check the power saving option but should it kick in while I'm actively surfing?
