I used this Intel 7260HWM to replace a failed Broadcom card that came factory installed in an ASRock Z97E-ITX motherboard. This Intel 7260HMW card has worked flawlessly so far. The signal strength is excellent. I downloaded the drivers from Intel's website before replacing the old card, but I didn't need them. Windows 10 detected the Intel 7260 WiFi chipset, automatically installed the drivers, and automatically reconnected to my WiFi network. I was surprised that I didn't even have to re-enter the WiFi password. I saw an "unknown device" in Device Manager, but before I could see what it was, Windows 10 automatically started installing drivers for the 7260HMW's built-in Bluetooth, and of course it wasn't an unknown device after that. Installing it on the motherboard was also fairly easy. Those little IPX antenna cable connectors were a bit of a hassle because I was too careful not to accidentally break them. Otherwise installing it on my system would be trivial. My only concern is that the seller is hiding the Intel name and logo from the label on the photos in the description, but they are not hidden on the card I received. Could it be an unauthorized dealer with no warranty? Could this be a quality rule deviation? Could this be fake?
