You're all going to have to accept the fact that you're basically going to have pay the $6 membership fee to have access to these files. I paid the price and it was completely worth it given the amount of time and headaches that were saved.

 

I got the Intel 7260 AC card here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MY9S692/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

 

I have a Y580. My bios version was v2.07. 

 

I downloaded the file named "[Y580][Y480]-'unlocked_BIOS'_660mGHzEdition_WhitelistMod.zip"

 

I got the error about the version not being newer than the current one I have, so I followed these directions:

• Open platform.ini in notepad.
• Find the line number 3: "SwitchString=ACEN DCEN CPVER:[1] FHRST RESSEN"
• Change the "RESSEN" to "RESSDIS"
• Save the file then launch InsydeFlash.exe.

Done.

Enjoy your new Wi-Fi card.

It is reality so easy as written by schmoofer. Okay when you get the f.....g screw out witch one has mounted skew.  Also without to drill round about 5 minutes.

I have also use the AC7260 and V2.07. All files you needed are in "[Y580][Y480]-'unlocked_BIOS'_660mGHzEdition_WhitelistMod.zip" (when u get it). Included antennas working well.

Thx to the community.

@xNotto thanks for the information.
