Windows 10 64 Bit - WPA2 personal + AES = Regular disconnects. TKIP = OK.

OK I have two HP laptops with Inter Wireless cards and both suffer from the same issues under windows 10.

Unless I enable TKIP cypher on my SSID then I get a disconnect every 15 seconds or so, with pretty immediate re-connection.

I put it down to bad drivers on the first laptop, because I found an old driver from 2011 that worked fine, but I have a new HP X2 2110 with the Dual-band Wireless-AC 8260 and I have tried all available drivers versions and they all experience the same issue.

Only by enabling TKIP on my SSID does the wireless stay connected.

Every other device I can connect with no issues on AES. Only Intel wireless & Windows 10 have these issues.

Any ideas Intel?

cheers

Pierrescotland,

According to official specification, the Intel® Dual-band Wireless-AC 8260 complies with the latest security/encryption standards as you can confrm it here: http://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/product-briefs/dual-band-wireless-ac-8260-brief.pdf Intel® Dual-band Wireless-AC 8260 - PRODUCT SPECIFICATION - TKIP, on the other hand, is one of the early security/encryption protocols and no longer meets the current security standards. Could you please be so kind and confirm which driver version you have for this adapter?
