New Update for Intel Killer Software Suite

Changelog:-
  • Fixed Smart AP and it is working properly now
  • Added additional start up type on one of killer components services to ensure full features working
Untested features...
  • Bluetooth tab [I guess they are trying to make a UI for [WiFi + BT] in one program?
  • Start VR mode
  • Extreme Game Mode
Notice:- It's better to use it along with Intel Wi-Fi Ultra Killer modded drivers for better coherent and compatibility. Although it will still work with stock Intel WiFi drivers.

  • Uninstall the previous version first by simply uninstalling it from device manager like this

  • And then install the new ones by downloading from the attachment :)
Once I make sure that everything is fine and no issues being reported, I will edit the main post and post the this Killer Intelligence Center installer ;)

Oh, shocko_O
Wifianalyzer doesn't work with the standard driver.
It works with the custom driver.
The APswitch doesn't work with either driver.
After a clean install of Windows 11 24H2, Bluetooth no longer showed up in Killer, but now it shows up with this patcher.
My environment is Windows 11 24H2, AX210.

Working nicely with the newest driver/killer, however Double Connect is still not working atm.

I still think its related to this, in cmd run:
netsh wlan show wirelesscapabilities

Which reports:

Wireless System Capabilities
----------------------------
Number of antennas connected to the 802.11 radio (value not available)
Max number of channels the device can operate on, simultaneously (value not available)
Co-existence Support : Unknown

Wireless Device Capabilities
----------------------------
Number of Concurrent Channels Supported : 0
Number of Radios : 0
Maximum Number of Secondary STAs Supported : 0
Number of MLO Connections Supported : 3

Basically the wifi device isn't telling Windows it supports more than 1 channel at a time, so no UI appears to use the feature.

I'm still trying to work around it and trying to bypass Intel checking mechanism ;) I just need more time to dig deeper :D

Smart AP still not working.
Will provide another fix :)

I'm sorry:(
I got a bit anxiouso_O
I'll calm down now:sleep:
Don't worry at all! express your feelings whatever/however you like :toast: Will provide another fix :)

It seems that the Smart AP is now working, and yes, I rebooted the system and it still works! Good job, THEBOSS619!

Works great (AX210), Smart AP showing & works. VR Mode kind of worked last time I tried, in that I could see the new network on my Quest 3 and connect to it, but Quest Link wouldn't work over it- not sure if it's a Meta/Quest problem though! Will try again soon.

Hello, just registered to follow this thread. I have an AX210 and AX211, would like to see if I can make DCT work.

@THEBOSS619 Out of curiosity, does the WiFi 7 BE200 use the new driver architecture NetAdapterCx or the old one?

Hey! yes, WiFi 7 BE200 use the new driver architecture NetAdapterCx by default officially but doesn't have the killer features and hence this modded driver will allow you to have Killer features ;) DCT options is there but i'm trying to find a way to make it work and bypass Intel's reporting. It's like tricking the Intel's checking mechanism :) sooner or later I will find a way... I just need time :toast:

Thanks for you work. My understanding is that DCT the same technology used for VR MODE but they may be two mutually exclusive features (you can have DCT and VR MODE).

Also I think DCT was abandoned in BE200, because Wi-Fi 7 has MLO, which is a more generic and standard implementation of DCT.

I think that too :toast:, MLO can replace the DCT function wise but I have no way of knowing or testing with no access to such hardware, I only got Intel AX211 :) so I'm going deeper while being a little blind here where to start or to look :laugh: Wish me luck as this thing seems alot to deal with :D
