For as well-supported Intel wireless NIC's are, I've found they are utter garbage. The Intel 7260 in my work-issued W540 randomly flakes out on me and has giant latency spikes, I actually ended up saying to hell with the one in my personal XPS 13 and swapped it with a Broadcom card that's worked much better.
- cies 10y agoGood to know. I kind of assumed they'd be like Intel graphics: most open among its competition.
- snuxoll 10y agoYou're not wrong, which is why I said they are well-supported. But that doesn't mean anything when the hardware itself is awful, I have the same issues regardless of whether I'm using Linux or Windows. I may need a proprietary kernel module for my Broadcom NIC, but the damned thing actually works consistently.
