New Intel WiFi 23.50.0 drivers are bogus, right?!


Recommended Posts

Have you experienced speed issues with the new Intel WiFi drivers?

Driver version 23.40.0.4

Whereas on the newest 23.50.0 these speeds are:

I'd say that's a huge difference.

I have both a AX200 WiFi 6, and also AC9560, on two systems having the same ussies on the same network (fiber 1 GB/1GB)

IDK works fine for me on my AX210, same full 500Mbps download speed, better upload speed. I let the Intel Driver and Support Assistant perform a full update.

Same here. Strange this this happens on two devices, each with different specs, CPU's and WiFi cards.

Might be time to run Driver Explorer... see what's lingering in your system. Start fresh with that newer version.

Do you mean DriverStore Explorer?

Is that one safe to use?

Hello,

The drivers are legitimate releases from Intel.  They recently released new Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Ethernet drivers:

I have noticed they typically release new drivers towards the end of the month.

Yes... and yes it's safe to use. You'll see the drivers listed by date and you can remove every old driver laying waste in your system.

This is where I got the 23.60 Drivers from, it works good on speed tests!

There is zero reason to install unofficial drivers from 3rd-parties. Good grief!

I like to get them from (official) Intel sources indeed.

Plus, as mentioned the change in router settings did fix a lot.

drivers are signed from Intel, don't worry they are not made by North Korea or something like that.

I am dumbfounded that in the year 2024 people make the above statements...

Non-official non-WHQL drivers will simply not install in regular windows. After installing the driver, you will see that Driver Provider is Intel. Station-drivers is a well known site which aggregates all known latest drivers. I have been using it since 7-8 years and never had any issues.

Station-drivers is mentioned, but also Necacom.

Maybe that's where confusion lies?

    • draw.io Desktop 30.2.6 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics. Generate diagrams from text descriptions using our smart templates.
