This is my first post and I have the Intel-N 7260 card in my Lenovo Flex 15 (Win 8.1 64 bit, 8 GB RAM, i5-4200U). A little horrified to see all the time and energy on this issue with no apparent resolution.
We are using version 17.1.0.19 of the Intel driver and no joy...resume from sleep causes a frustrating intermittency of WiFi.
Intel, is this a recall issue? It sure seems like it if after so much time and so many iterations of the driver, the problem persists. I am guessing this is a hardware flaw that Intel is unable or unwilling to timely solved with software fixes.
