Hi Members.
I am trying to replace my old wifi-card in the PC: HP G62-a19SO with the Intel 7260HMW card with Dual Band Wireless AC.
I found this forum about how to make the Bios accept the wifi card with NWL. Had F.0A and tried with sp55430NWL and the bios crashed. Updated to latest F.48 and then tried sp55430NWL. This works. Just a little helper if you have the same problem outthere.
Well, my problem is now that I can switch WLAN ON and OFF on the button on my PC, but the card doesn't register this in Win7. The HP wireles assistant does though. The HP wireless Assistant is working for turning Bluetooth on and off, but no WLAN is registered.
I have tried deinstalling HP wireless Assistant and installing the Intel drivers through the automatic update program. Removing the device in device manager and reinstalling. Nothing works. The card seems correctly installed, but just says hardware switch is OFF even though the button works and I can switch it ON and OFF. It just stays OFF.
Can anyone help me out?
Thanks so much for wonderful help with removing whitelist, just doen't help if it will not read the card properly.
