Does anyone know if there is an AC Wireless card out to upgrade to on my G75VW?
I have the Asus Router that supports AC but my G75 doesn't have the card.
I knew about this awhile back when I purchased the Router but was checking to see
if there is now one that can be put in my G75.

Please let me know if anyone does

_Thanks

Hi,
i have a G75 and like also to change the crap wifi modul to the Intel 7260. So far i use the ASUS USB-AC56 Adapter that works well but not stable since i updated OS to Win 8.1
Because there are some versions of the Intel 7260 could you confirm that this is the latest version that i shoud use for the G75:

Also it would be good to know it this version of the 7260 works on 5Ghz.

yeah
it is the "latest" version
it has wireless AC which is solely on the 5GHz band and of course you can useit on 5Ghz Wireless N band.

but that is expensive as balls! you could buy 2 for that price...
try your online retailers they probably have it cheaper
rig: Impact VII / 4790K / Crucial Ballistix SP 16GB 1600Mhz/ 256GB 850 Pro
Corsair AX760 / H105 AIO Watercooling / Bitfenix Prodigy
laptop: G75VW 3630QM / 670m /16GB RAM / 256GB 840 Pro + 750gb/ BD drive
Gaming OC for 670m 750/1750

with a compatible .ac wifi router, intel 7260 can reach the full speed 867Mbps 😄

Today installed the 7260 in my G75VW. Very easy to install only took about 20 minutes and with my new AC router it amazing on the download speeds.
I think that Newegg made a mistake though and sent me four of the 7620 modules so now I have 3 extras! 🙂

Yep, just got my 7260 today and just finished installing it. Holy crap! I only have 105mbps internet but I'm sucking every bit up with this new card. Up from about 50mbps with the Atheros. It was extremely simple to install as well and for $30, well worth it!

Ive installed the 7260 in my G75VW and have been having different problems.

I uninstalled the old atheros drivers

placed the new card in and installed drivers, ive gotten the bluetooth to work twice both times after a fresh install of the drivers. after a restart no bluetooth in site. No where in device manager as it was shown before.

While the bt was working i was able to connect my phone as a bluetooth device and everything worked fine, after restart gonezo.

If theres any suggestions on what to do i would appreciate the help. Thanks everyone
