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?

    • Hello, I am not as familiar with AMD CPUs as I am with Intel's, but as I understand it, that's a mid-range CPU from about three years ago.  I would think it to be fine for everyday casual-type use.  A larger SSD might be better, but with storage prices these days that's a decision that has to be carefully thought about.

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.5 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.5 changelog: Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows (DirectSound and ASIO) Fixes several crashes and memory corruption issues Fixes opening several headerless files at once, which previously dropped all but one Improves batch export by suggesting and remembering the destination folder Fixes accented and non-Latin characters in VST plug-in and compressed-archive file names Adds zstd compression support and updates the archive library Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • I did think about a Echo show once and it would be useful to see what my cameras see. But my brother got one and I changed my mind. Adverts and not really worth the price just to see my cameras. I have a load of dots and a Echo Gen 4, they will do.
