Intel ac 7265 wireless adapter

[dk02655]

I have two related issues.  1) Connectivity on my HPx360 convertible has been poor lately.  Very erratic.  No other computer in house nor any other wireless device has problem.  2) I let the HP support website identify my model for updated drivers.  Interestingly, it found my computer and listed all the drivers but it lists a Realtek RTL8723BE/RTL8188EE 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN Drivers update but the driver on the computer according to everything including going into device manager shows it's an Intel AC7265.  Is the software on the HP site incorrect?  I don't think so. The intel update manager says driver is up to date but I'd like to try and install a different driver either HP specific if there is one or the previous driver which I had no problems with.  Device mgr won't let me roll back to previous for some reason.
