Hi:

 

You can get them directly from Intel at the link below.

 

Wireless:  Driver only (64 bit) is the second file on the list.

Hi I have a HP ENVY that I bought back in july of 2013.  It has been working flawlessly until about 3 weeks ago when my wireless connection keeps dropping (sometimes every few minutes and the only way to fix it is to do troubleshoot and reset the connection. I have windows 8.1.  It always says there is a problem with the gateway but it seems to fix itself until sometime later then it drops again.  I have the Intel(R) Centrino(R) Wireless-N 2230 card. I have tried clicking uninstall and restarting the computer but I run into the same issues a few hours later.  Could it be that my network card is dieing or is there some software update that I need to fix this issue?

 

Its a 64 bit operating system.

Hi:

 

The only suggestion I can offer, would be for you to install the latest wireless card driver for that card...

 

You want the second file on the list for W8.1 64 bit.

It fixed the problem thank you.  I tried the windows update check before even for optional opdates and it never fixed the issue.  But downloading the driver from intel directly seemed to fix the issue.

You're very welcome.

 

Glad the latest driver from Intel worked for you.
