Hi All,
I am on Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit and I was facing the below issue:
So I connect with this laptop to my wifi device and I can access the internet as usual. But after some time (varies from 2 minutes to 1 hour) the wifi indicator in taskbar on the bottom shows no internet access and I loose the intenet connection. I have to restart my router and I get to connect but same story after a little while. I have to place my router next to my bed and have to restart it all the time and it is getting really on my nerves.
Some more background info: The laptop can connect to my office WLAN network without any issue for whole day. I have tested it on two different networks. I have reinstalled the wireless drivers but to no use. On the other hand Router is and was working fine with my old hp notebook 4530s also it shows no issues when i am connected via android device.
It is just that when I connect Elitebook 840 G1 to my home network, the problem mentioned above starts happening i.e no internet access. Can someone tell me whats can be wrong here? what settings might cause this issue.
What I did is to install these drivers and everything is perfect now. Ensure that the driver "Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-N 7260" is version: 16.1.3.1
Enjoy you HP EliteBook 840 G1

Hi chr0naut,
Did you ever find a solution for the windows 8.1 Enterprise x64 840g1 systems?
Also just curious, has anyone else officially reported the issue to HP support? I'm being told my current open case is the only one to be reported which I have a hard time believing
I should also mention that we are having the same issue. Intermittent "Limited Connectivity", multiple wireless networks, multiple drivers tried, etc
Thanks
