It has a wireless network adapter Intel Wireless-AC9560 160MHz. The problem is it randomly stops working. 1st time i faced this issue was in around June,2020. I got freaked out and just did a system restore, and everything came back to normal.

But I started facing this issue again from starting of Oct. The adapter stops working and the wifi stops cause of it. Error message when I go to properties:This device has stopped working (something of this sort)

Locate the drivers you downloaded back in Step 1. Run as administrator, and follow the wizard to completion. To Run as administrator right-click over the file you downloaded and select the option to Run as administrator.

We have not heard back from you, so we will close this inquiry. Please remember to follow the steps given above, and if after that you keep having this problem, you should contact the OEM as this can be a hardware problem.

So I work for the IT department of the Ohio State University. We have a brand new Dell computer that came with a 7265 Adapter. Immediately upon receiving it, we noticed that after several hours, the wireless connection would drop. The adapter would be unable to see any wireless networks at all. If you disable and re-enable the adapter it connects immediately.

"The description for event ID 8000 from source NETwNb64 cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer."

Checking the WLAN-Autoconfig log, we see a pattern. There are three messages that pop up every once in a while, roughly every 2-3 hours. These three messages all arrive in this order within the same second.

followed about 10 seconds later by a disconnection from the wireless networks. After this event it appears that we are no longer able to see any wireless networks until the adapter is reset or the machine is reset.

To be totally honest, I don't know whether any of these events are related, and I am not sure if it's possible there is a hardware misconfiguration, but this is a brand new computer, it has happened with two separate wireless cards (of the same model) and there is no other software installed on the computer that could be interfering with it.

- Go to Windows* Device Manager - Network Adapters, look for the Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265 and enter the adapter properties, in the Power Management tab, toggle off/on the option "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". Check if the behavior improves when you change this setting.

3. In Control Panel, Device Manager, Network Adapters, right click on the Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265 and Uninstall it, make sure you mark the option to "Delete the driver software for this device".

I should reiterate that my initial steps before starting this thread was to do a fresh install from an official microsoft ISO of windows 8.1, then immediately install the package you linked to. I did no other configuration or software installation of any kind. Only a moment ago when you had me reboot did I even install the windows updates.

I do occasionally see messages from the windows troubleshooter when I try "troubleshoot my connection" after it drops that say the drivers have a problem. I don't know if that's a meaningful message, but it's what I have to work with :/.

I don't know if it would happen during normal operation because there is no software on the machine and no one can use it until I get this worked out and give it to the professor who ordered it. So far it has only been observed to happen during sleep mode, and not even immediately. It happens only when the computer has been idle for several hours. (At least that I've observed)

@Johns: There is nothing relevant to a wireless adapter in the power settings. (see screenshot below) However, this machine has no Dell software on it at all. It has been formatted and all that has been done was installing a vanilla copy of Windows 8.1 Pro and the driver for this network adapter. I have not even browsed to a website on it, other than the link given above to the driver.

There are no other power plans available. 'Balanced' is the only one that exists. Any other power plans would have to be created, and since there are no settings to change that relate to the wireless card, I would not know how to go about creating such a plan.

Jesler's suggestion about enabling Hyper-V has, indeed, allowed me to access the device's power management settings, and I've disallowed turning the device off to save power. I'm now waiting to see if the problem recurs.

I Have an Asrock 390m-itx/ac mobo. Everything was fine, but then these automatic updates were pushed to my pc, and now the intel wireless bluetooth is screwed up. You can see the little usb icon in the systray toggling on/off continuously, and if you look in device manager, the icon is constantly disappearing and reappearing, and you can hear the windows new connection sound effect constantly going off. Intolerable.

I should note that when I see intel wireless in my device manager, i can uninstall, but there is no checkbox to delete files as well. This does exist on Intel Bluetooth. When I reboot, the Intel Wireless driver is already reinstalled.

I had recently updated Intel BT drivers and after that no BT device would connect to my desktop PC anymore. The BT on/off toggle had disappeared form that right-side panel accessible from the taskbar. When I opened Device Manager, the entire tree of devices would keep on refreshing every 2 seconds, until I manually disabled the Intel BT adapter (which was being continuously reset or something). I tried all manners of drive removal/upgrade/downgrade to no avail. Of course I tried rebooting the computer and even messed a bit with BIOS configs for nothing.

Yep. Like many others, I created an account to say thank you- roughly four years after this thread was created. The solution is still relevant, and it's far and away much easier and less time consuming than any of the other "solutions" I tried.

Edit: It might be important to add that different machines might require a longer or shorter interruption in the power supply for this to work. I've seen one person in this thread who unplugged their machine for 15 minutes, but I only unplugged mine for about 30 seconds.

Intel wireless wifi link 4965 does not function under windows 7. I'm running a Lenovo ideapad Y510, Avast antivirus and windows firewall. Unit was running Vista, sprung for a new HD and Win7 home premium and can't get a wireless connection under Windows 7. Troubleshooter says network adapter not connected. Intel adapter failed the association test. I updated all network adapter at the Intel download site and have tried uninstalling and re-installing in normal ansd safe mode. This appears to be quite an issue for some Win 7 users that M$ has failed to address. See this link...,

THE BOTTOM LINE HERE, IS, WIRELESS ADAPTER IS SHOWING NOT CONNECTED AND FAILS "ASSOCIATION TEST. I COULD GET WIRELESS UNDER WINDOWS VISTA, BUT CANNOT GET WIRELESS UNDER WINDOWS 7. ANY HELP FROM THE INTEL WIRELESS WIFI WHIZ KIDS WOULD CERTAINLY BE APPRECIATED. MATT125

Issue SOLVED! Purchased MediaLink USB WiFi. Now wireless up and running. Lenovo tech sent me link to power management software that theoretically could solve this issue. Installed but do not know if deployed right, it did not work. M$ techs gave me all of these supposed fixes which were entirely off base. Since Lenovo did not update their driver for Ideapad Y510 to be compatible with Win 7 and M$ did not make Win 7 backwards compatible with Intel WiFi 4965AG, the problem remained. Save yourself the aggravation and frustration of dealing with this issue by buying a wireless USB! Thanks for everyone's input! Have a great holiday and a great new year!

So, I hope it's a short time before this issue is solved. I will post the fix as soon as I get the Intel wireless wifi link 4965AG operational under win7. Wifi connectivity issues under Win 7 are a huge problem on the M$ answer site and M$ has not issued a one size fits all fix for this issue. So, I'm really curious to see what the fix is. Take care.
