Hello blacksmithy,

The http://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/product-briefs/dual-band-wireless-ac-7260-bluetooth-brief.pdf Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 supports Intel® vPro™ Technology, however, the adapter does not require the CPU to support Intel® vPro™ Technology in order to operate.

Intel® vPro™ Technology is sophisticated and requires setup and activation. Availability of features and results will depend upon the setup and configuration of your hardware, software and IT environment. To learn more visit:

The best source to confirm if the Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260, M.2 Form Factor is compatible with a determined PC is the http://www.intel.com/support/oems.htm Computer Manufacturer Support. For more information about this, please review the following documents:

Thank you for your reply. Probably some of the local resellers of this wireless card has translated the section about vPro incorrectly what was really confusing.
