    Guys

    am looking to fit this card, as among other things I have an AC compatible router and just wondering if anyone knows of or had any success with the right drivers/software for this card, dell does not supply any for my model of laptop but do for the Dell XPS 12 (9Q33) would these work on my laptop??,

    Or would i be better using the intel drivers and software?,

    I also want to be able to utilize the intel WIDI function, which i have not been successful in doing with the current intel 2230 wireless card thats fitted (Intel Centrino Wireless-N 2230) keeps coming up wireless adapter not enabled or something like that

    any help appreciated

    For the new stuff the drivers that are on dell's website are the Intel drivers.
    https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Se...ductProduct=Intel®+Dual+Band+Wireless-AC+7260

    You will need both drivers.
