Intel AC-7260

Hi,

Just an FYI for anyone interested. I have a Intel AC 7260 dual band wifi card in my laptop. Upon updating to the latest drivers I noticed that gamestream became basically unusable. Horrendous stuttering that was solely attributable to the network and not graphics or cpu.

Uninstalling the "Wifi Proset" drivers as Intel call them and allowing Windows 10 to install a much older version resulted in smooth gameplay again.

New Driver Version - 18.33.11.2

Currently installed and functioning well - 17.15.0.5

There are no other variable except for the driver version and this is reproducible. I thought it may help someone tearing their follicles out.

Hi,

i have similar experience... all from or above v18.x.x.x is faulty for the AC-7260.
