I have a Lenovo Ideapad Y510P (59405661 Model)
The Wireless Card is an Intel Wireless-N 7260 (802.11bgn) card
I downloaded the wireless driver from http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi, opened the file, and copied the .ucode file into /lib/firmware/
I haven't been able to get it to load the driver and am still unable to connect to wireless networks. Is there anything I'm missing or anything else I could try?
