Also in Device Manager, under Bluetooth Radios, Uninstall the Generic Bluetooth adapter, or Intel® Centrino® Wireless Bluetooth®, also selecting the option to "Delete the driver software for this device". Repeat this process until the OS does not allow deleting the driver, or until the controller shows as Unknown Device. Reboot the PC or scan for hardware changes, check device manager and if an older driver is detected and installed, repeat the actions to uninstall and delete it as well. Make sure you mark the option to "Delete the driver software for this device". In Control Panel, Device Manager, Network Adapters, right click on the Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 2230 and Uninstall it.

Here are the instructions to do a clean install of the BT and WiFi drivers: Please remember that the PC manufacturer support is the best source to obtain drivers for your system, since some OEM's add customizations to their systems and may require their OEM drivers for proper operation of the Intel® Wireless Adapters. When uninstalling the drivers, are you doing a complete removal of previous versions? Was this the original adapter that came with your computer?
01 and Windows 7 64Bit (Prof.)Īs was mentioned in the related forum, this may due to other Bluetooth drivers previously installed in the system, or because you need to use a different Bluetooth driver version. What's going wrong, Intel? Searching the community I found several other (old) discussions with the same problem, e.g. If I switch back to v3 driver series the bluetooth adapter shows correctly as "Intel Centrino Wireless Bluetooth 4.0 + High Speed Adapter" (and uses an Intel driver). The bluetooth card is always detected as a generic bluetooth adapter using v17. Since using version v.17 of Intel's bluetooth drivers the device shows up as "Generic bluetooth adapter" in device manager:Īnother strange thing: the adapter is not only called "Generic Bluetooth Adapter" but it is in fact a generic Microsoft bluetooth driver and not an Intel driver! However the Bluetooth audio driver is the correct driver by Intel.ĭoes the v.17 driver package not include a driver for Wireless-N 2230 cards? It makes no difference if I upgrade directly from v3 to v17 drivers (without uninstalling v3 before) or uninstalling v3 before installing v17 driver. I use an Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 2230 in a Lenovo E530.
