Hey everyone, I'm dealing with an Intel AC7260 in my laptop and it's running into issues similar to the one mentioned in the forum link. I'm trying to find a replacement card but have been stuck since about four years. Intel has stopped supporting this model, and most manufacturers don't currently offer mPCIe cards. I'm wondering if there are any options left or if using an M.2 adapter would be the best solution. Thanks!

Absolutely, it's better to use something that works directly without needing a converter.
