I think I'm having a driver issue with the Intel Dual Band
Wireless-N 7260. The driver version is 16.1.0.14 which is the only driver for
Windows 7 at the moment. Frequently, but not all the time, when I click on the
Windows 7 access point list, I get all of the 2.4 GHz band right away, but the
5 GHz band takes 5 - 10 seconds to appear on the list. Are you guys having this
problem? So far, no speed or drop issues with the 2.4 GHz band. My router is
only 2.4 GHz so I can't test the stability at 5 GHz.See this link for the picture: http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2853/9379658261_1a76c2dd97_o_d.jpg
Ever since I updated to 16.1.1.3, I haven't had this problem now. My connection is far more stable too at 2.4 GHz band despite 30 access points/routers in range. I'm sticking to this version for Windows 7 even if newer version comes unless I found problems with this one.
