Updating Driver and Software
The following methods can be used to update your Intel® Wi-Fi driver:
  • Intel® Driver Update Utility
    The easiest way to update your Intel Wi-Fi driver and software is to run the Intel Driver Update Utility tool. This tool identifies your adapter and updates your computer with the latest version, if necessary.

  • Manually update the driver
    Download your driver through Download Center. You need to know your adapter name and operating system to locate the driver.
After you have the software or driver on your hard drive, simply double-click the executable. The install wizard walks you through the installation process.
