Unfortunately Intel does not want to take responsibility.
I'm stuck with using a mini router as a wireless client and connect the ethernet to the LAN port of my notebook (because the company that made that port actually cares about their product). While the crap Intel garbage is stuck to being just a Bluetooth receiver (I'm surprised it actually works).
Next time I think about buying anything Intel, I'm doing my research.
I will be telling people about this product and the lack (most people would say none) of customer support for the thousands of people affected by their negligence.
The little man will prevail.
