Intel 7260 - Failed to send DQA enabling command

n2linux · Post by **n2linux** » Thu Mar 21, 2024 9:49 am

New to me laptop. Unable to get Intel 7260 wireless to work in linux. Dual booting with Windows 11. Card works fine in Windows. DMESG shows "Failed to send DQA enabling command: -5". Been fiddling with it a couple of days now. Looking for some help.
