Intel is now rolling out its latest drivers for Windows 11, reports Windows Latest. The new drivers are intended to fix various Wi-Fi and Bluetooth issues, resulting in more stable connection speeds and less interference with wireless headphones.
For a while, there have been problems between Wi-Fi and Bluetooth in Windows 11, especially when both connections compete for the same wireless channel. Sometimes, when you’re at your PC listening to music, your Bluetooth device might disappear from the Quick Settings and can’t be found anywhere for some reason.
Meanwhile, with active Wi-Fi connections, there can be delays and glitches with Bluetooth audio transmission when Bluetooth and 2.4GHz Wi-Fi are being used in the same room.
Intel’s latest drivers are designed to fix these issues in Windows 11. The easiest way to install them is via the Intel Graphics Software app. Alternatively, you can download them via Intel’s support website.
In the long term, Microsoft will make the drivers available via Windows Update. However, the exact timing for that is still unclear.
