Dv9000 can board support intel ac 7260 wifi card

i'd like to upgrade my wireless card from an intel 4965agn to the intel wireless-ac 7260 on a Pavilion dv9000 laptop.
is there any way to update the bios which will allow the system to recognize the ac 7260 as a supported network device?
if not, is there any other tool that can scan your machine and identify your upgrade possibilities for a wireless network card based on the bios that you currently have?

Hi,
That card is the best chip you can have on that laptop. The laptop is too old to support the AC standard and the Intel chip supports up to 300Mbps and both wireless bands (2.4/5GHz). That is a pretty good wifi because some HP laptop series can't even upgrade to a dual band wifi card such as yours or Intel 6235 etc..

Is it possible to use Intel PROset Wireless/WiFi card on MacBook late 2007 in replacement of Airport?

Will Intel PROset/Wireless WiFi card work on MacBook Late-2007? I don't have an Airport card with me as this MacBook was only given to me from a friend. Also will Mac OS X 10.6 install even though the WiFi card and Bluetooth card is not in the MacBook?
MacBook Late-2007, Mac OS X 10.6, 1GB RAM, 8x SuperDrive, 235GB 5400rpm HDD, Intel Core 2 Duo T8300, Intel GMA Graphics

I would seriously doubt that you will be able to use this card as a replacement for the AirPort Extreme card in your MacBook.
A better option would be to use a wireless USB Wi-Fi adapter instead. You can find these at a number of vendors on the Internet. One would be Other World Computing (OWC).
As far as installing OS X 10.6, you should be able to install it from the OS X installation disk regardless if the AirPort card is missing.

Does the X58 boards support intel 2 core quad 775?

i have a question the X58 boards support 2 core quad processors? because it says 45 nm support.

For future reference, look at the socket of cpu.
Core 2's are socket 775 or LGA 775, X58 is for Nehalem or better Bloomfield cpu's, new architecture and has socket 1366 or LGA 1366.
The numbers stand for the number of pins found on the bottom of the cpu, the core 2's had 775 contactpoints, the new Nehalem 1366.
The 45 nm you refer to is the productionproces on which it is made on, e.g. 45 nm.
The smaller this number becomes, the next step is 32 nm, the more processors can be cut from a wafer.

Yoga 2 11 support for new AC Wifi card

I just recently upgraded my Yoga 2 11 with a new Crucial MX100 512 GB SSD. While in the laptop, I pulled the factory Wifi card and bought and installed the Intel Dual-Band Wireless AC 7260. I get the dreaded error on bootup that it has detected a unsupported wi-fi card. Is there a supported AC card for this machine, or plans to support this Intel card?
The top card is what came from the factory (real piece of junk), and the bottom is the new Intel card.

Have you considered looking at what's available in the Lenovo Outlet ?
Here's one example, Y11s Haswell: http://outlet.lenovo.com/outlet_us/itemdetails/59RF0542/445
Listed as a refurb. My experience with refurbs from the outlet is that I couldn't tell them from 'new'. YMCV.
Happy Hunting!

Can I add a mini pci WiFi card in my Sat Pro L10?

My L10 has no internal wifi card installed but the motherboard has a socket for it. The wifi switch on the front is blanked off and the keyboard hot key is not configured.
If a card was added could the hot key be configured to be an on/off

Hi
As far as I know you can upgrade the unit with the wifi mini PCI card. The Fn keys should also works and should enable the antenna with the key combination FN+F8.
I also found the hotkey utility and a wireless driver for this unit on the Toshiba page.

Directx 9 Support - Intel 945 Express Graphics Card

This Z61T Model 9442-E6U has a lot of power and I use is mostly for business. I purchased software recently that requires DirectX9 and I continue to get a program error that my graphics card does not support DirectX 9. How can this be? Is there a work around? I am shocked that this computer, with all its power, does not support the DirectX 9. I have installed the latest DirectX9.0c software and the latest graphics drivers. Help!!!

That card will run the game I have it and its amazing but you will need at least 2 gigs of ram to run it.

T410 and Intel AC-7260

I have a T410 2522-DM2 originally equipped with a Intel N 6200 PCIE adaptor system BIOS is ver. 1..45. Documentation for patch grw210ww rev.01 clearly states that my T410 (windows 7-32b) will support the Intel AC-7260 PCIE card. When I replace the PCIE with the AC-7260, I get a message from the BIOS that it is not authorized. I have seen at least one other complaint about this misstatement-statement &/or error. Said grw210ww documentation makes no mention of any particular BIOS version. What's the story here, is there a specific BIOS version to make the document true? Or some other mechanism to make this thing work as advertised? Note that grw210ww also mentions the N-6200 as being support as well.
I would appreciate an answer from some responsible for the content of Thinkpad/Lenovo technical document content.
Thanks,
LJB

Welcome to the forum!
T410 does not support AC7260 with any stock BIOS.
You will need a third-party ("modded") BIOS in order to use that card in your machine.
If you could post the link that you're referring to about T410 supporting the AC card, it would be highly appreciated.
Cheers,

X220 doesn't recognize Wifi-card

Hi everybody, I ran into some issues with my X220 some weeks back and have been trying to fix them to no avail. As far as I can remember I took some time a few weeks back to install the 1.40 firmware-update and also updated the battery-firmware in the same routine. I'm not sure If it was immediately afterwards (since I'm using a dock with LAN), but the wifi-card (Intel 6205) wasn't recognized by the OS anymore. No entry in the device manager! Here's what I've seen/tried so far:1) What I was firstly able ot see was that the device would sometimes show up after returning from sleep when not in the dock.2) Since I have an Ericson WWAN-card i switched mPCIe places. WWAN-card works in both slots. No recognition of the Wifi-card in both. >> So it doesn't seem to be related to mPCIe or the board.3) My guess was a faulty card, so I tried a newly-bought Intel 7260 Wifi-card in the slot.3.1) The Wifi-card must have been recognized by the BIOS, since the whitelist-fault was presented and I had to remove it to even be able to boot again.3.2) As the warranty wasn't my concern anymore anyways I flashed a whitelist-disabled version of the 1.40 firmware. As promised, I was able to boot with the 7260 card.3.3) Yet still, the card is not presented in the device manager.4) Since my Windows 7-installation had quite some time on its shoulders I reckoned that maybe another OS would be able to properly recognize the card. I just freshly installed Windows 10 and again - nothing is able to bring back the Wifi-card.5) I used a linux live distribution to check whether that one recognizes any of the the cards. It also wasn't able to see any of the two. Does anyone have any experience with this kind of issue? With best regards and a hopeful thanks in advance, Christian

Update:
I used a debian live installation running from a pendrive to look for detected hardware. No wifi was found - again for both cards.
I'm really lost for ideas at this point. What really irritates me is that the BIOS/UEFI recognizes the 7260 card with correct VID and PID. Yet still the cards are somehow (I guess) not made available to the operating system.
On another note: I've just noticed that I posted in the wrong forum section. It's about an X220, so the "ThinkPad X Series Laptops" forum would be the correct one. Could a moderator maybe move this topic?

Yoga 2 Bluetooth not stable with 7260 AC card

Hi everyone,
I'm having a problem with my Microsoft Wireless Bluetooth 8000 presenter mouse staying connected via Bluetooth. I have installed the latest Kona Wifi driver and the latest Bluetooth driver from the Lenovo site. It's my opinion that these two drivers are not compatible.
The only way I have been able to keep both the wifi and the Bluetooth stable and not drop connections is to have the latest Kona driver for wifi and roll back the Bluetooth driver to the "generic Bluetooth driver" from 2006. When I use the most recent Bluetooth driver it works initially but then it will be totally unresponsive after I sleep or restart the computer and I have to keep reinstalling the Bluetooth mouse to reconnect. Crazy!
I have all the Bluetooth, USB and Wifi energy setting turned off so the computer cannot put any of them to sleep to save power.
On a side note, I also installed the Intel AC dual band version of the card.
I have noticed that I have lost my 5 Ghz wifi connection completely a couple of times in the last few days with both the Kona version of the wifi driver and with the driver direct from Intel's site. Both appear to be the same driver. The only way I am able to get my 5 Ghz back is to reboot the computer and bang - it's back.
The other interesting thing is I can have the laptop right next to my router and the it will go from 2 bars to 5 bars back and forth but when I monitor the connection with Inssider it does not show any signal drops or degradation of signal. What the heck is going on with the windows wifi meter?
I don't blame these issues on Lenovo and I understand that I now have a non-stock wifi card installed so I'm on my own. I think there is an issue Intel not getting these drivers right with the windows 8.1 update. Intel needs to get their crap together with their 7260 series of wifi cards. Anyone know what the new MacBook pros are using for AC wifi cards?
BTW - turning of Bluetooth is not a reasonable solution to fixing my problems. Both should just work. I'm curious if anyone else has found a good combination of Bluetooth and wifi drivers who may also have installed the AC dual band version of the card. I'm about 90 percent stable at this point but I just can't stand the idea of using a Bluetooth driver from 2006.
Overall, the laptop is good. The greasy looking track pad looks like hell already and the light bleed from the bottom of the screen is annoying. High res is awesome for most things but almost un-useable for other older programs that won't scale right. My wife is getting huge headaches trying to use a work program with miniature font. When I remote desktop into my home server it is terribly small....break out the magnifying glass!
Looking forward to the yellow update and hopefully some wifi/Bluetooth stability in the near future - I'm talking to you Intel. Peace!

I'm using a Logitec Bluetooth mouse and have problems. I installed the Bluetooth drivers from the Lenovo web site. When I click to open a window, the Bluetooth mouse becomes inoperable. I can use the touch screen or the pad to move the cursor or windows. The mouse will "go to sleep" and then re-activate after perhaps 20 seconds or so.
No time to troubleshoot it right now, but has anyone tried new drivers from Intel for the wifi card or from Microsoft for Bluetooth? All Lenovo drivers are dated October 16 I think. The fact that it happens with a Logitec mouse susggests driver problems.
Love the laptop, however !!

External antenna on mini PCI WiFi card

Hello,
The stock mini PCI WiFi card on the MEGA 865 has terrible range. I can not connect to an access point beyond 20 feet. Can an external antenna be added to the card? Does someone sell a mini PCI WiFi with external antenna? The new MEGA 865 PRO has an external antenna!!!!! Where can I buy this 865 PRO WiFi card and antenna? My PCI slot is filled and USB keys seem to have about the same range.
In another computer I have a D Link PCI card 802.11 a/b/g with external antenna with excellent signal at 100 feet.
Thanks for your help!

ahh ha! success...
I got new Intel drivers for my wireless Mini-PCI card from the Intel site itself.
It now is very stable...transferred more than 5gig at once without dropouts
Only problem is that the speed is sacrificed a bit...i was getting slightly higher transfer rates with the original drivers(which came with the card).. now im getting max 2MByte/s(16Mbits/s) with these new drivers....also Windows can see the wireless network connection as "Status:Excellent"..so im pleased with the stability
Can any1 explain how(even when 2 wireless-G devices are sitting next to each other) they can never reach 54MBit/s ??? So then 108MB/s must be an absolute load of crap ..and not even reach 54MBit/s properly
I should be getting around 54MBit/s ..after all why say its 54MBit/s when its not ....grrrr

Hp Envy wifi card replacement

Hi, I want to replace my wifi card which intel centrino 2230, can any one tell me which wifi card other then intel is compatable with my laptop. thanks

Changing the wifi card would change the MAC ID of the PC as well and that is why it would not be recomended.
However, you can add a wifi card that is of the miniPCI spec.
you can visit http://partsurfer.hp.com/search.aspx and check if there are any cards compatible with you PC listed.
Just add the product number of your PC in the search box.
Changing the card on the PC would also void your warranty in case of a failure caused by the new card.
The easiest thing to do will be to just buy a USB wifi stick, these are very cheap and usually dont require drivers.

Are you going to add Intel 7260 AC WiFi card to X230's BIOS whitelist?

Are you going to add Intel 7260 AC WiFi card to X230's BIOS whitelist in the future?
I'm thinking about upgrading my wifi-card to an Intel AC card.
Thank you.

Presently Lenovo Regulatory Notes list consists wifi adapters with AC specification support in the m.2 formfactor only, for the new laptops line on Haswell. Do conclusions yourself.

[W520] Can't install updates for Intel WiDi or WiFi drivers

The Lenovo ThinkVantage System Update is telling me there are Intel WiDi and WiFi drivers available. When I try to install them they seem to install fine, I get a Windows pop-up saying 'you're new hardware has installed correctly', then my system restarts and the updates are still listed as new available updates. In the ThinkVantage update history it says for both "Did not install". When I look at the driver version for the WiFi driver it is 14.03.0000.0 but I already have version 15.1.0.18 according to the ThinkBantage Toolbox System Information. So I already have the newest drivers? Why is the Update tool prompting for these updates? Should I just hide these updates? I don't care about WiDi but I'd like to have the newest WiFi drivers.

The cable between the logic board and the 3G board was removed can I convert it to a Wifi only?

I have a Ipad 2 3g. someone detached the cable between the logic board and the 3G board can I convert it to a Wifi only?

The ipads that have 3g have an extra section attached to the logic board by a glued on wire. I bought this at a tag sale. Someone was apparently trying to repair their iPad and they did not know that when you removed that glued strip attaching the 3g antenna to the logic board you would never be able to re-atach it again later. So basicaly my 3g logic board is now in two pieces. the main logic board with wifi and the cdma 3g antenna. Now their is no differnce between the logic boards in either wifi only or wifi and 3g devices. I attempted to restore the device with the ios for wifi only, because there are 3 different ios versions depending on if you have wifi only wifi 3g with SIM card, or wifi 3g cdma.
