Hello, i got the intel 3160 ac adapter a while ago and since then i have a weird issue, every once in a while i will lose signal to my router and the adapter wont pick up any wireless network, i have to disable the adapter, then enable it again so i can get any wireless network around my flat. I m using the 2.4 GHz band. The bluetooth is working fine with no problems so far. I m in desperate need of help, i m sick of having to disabling/enabling my adapter every 10 mins

I only have that issue when the signal is weak or lots of interference. Have you tried using 5GHz if your wireless access point is capable of it?
