[Intel AX1xx/AX2xx/AX4xx/AX16xx/BE2xx/BE17xx] Intel Modded Wi-Fi Driver with Intel® Killer™ Features

[THEBOSS619]

good day. I would like to express my gratitude to THEBOSS619. I installed the drivers for my intel wi fi be200 network card! 6 ghz frequency works great! but I have a question, does your wonderful driver work with MLO technology? this is aggregation of 5+6 ghz frequencies! thank you.

Thank you for your kind words, I really appreciate your support and helpand forgive me for my late replies
MLO tech. is supported for Wi-Fi 7 cards which in your case is BE200, but there's alot of factors goes in to make it work properly, You need a supported router and proper settings + Microsoft tends to enable or disable this MLO feature as they do the A/B testings phases and living in a regions/country that allows those kind of features.

I wonder why Intel limits its Wi-Fi network cards to 6 GHz? For what purpose do they do this? What is the essence of limiting these high-speed data transfer technologies? These technologies are for accelerating the transfer of information.... why should Western countries have fast technologies, and Eastern countries have outdated and slow data transfer speeds? Do I understand this correctly?

Unfortunately, the understanding of justice and democracy in the world is not based on people, but on self-interest and wherever there is more profit. WiFi 6E, 7 is officially approved in only 3 countries - DE, NO, HR (Germany, Norway and Croatia). I know it is not open everywhere in the US, Canada, and even there it is partial. I know 6 GHz has recently been open around Brazil, France.
Even in our Istanbul, only 5G phone signals are open at the airport....It will probably take 2026 for it to be open in Turkey. turkey is supposedly both west and east... We either find a solution or we wait, I hope that in the future, technology will be human-oriented without discrimination; fair without discrimination of religion, language, race, nationality... I hope...

I wish all those limited stuff just disappears and remove those arbitrary useless restrictions... we buy stuff expecting certain futures to be instantly available to us only to find out later that due to region/countries bla bla bla restriction is being forcibly imposed without any kind of warning or a hint about those kind of region/countries bla bla bla restriction.

Even Intel AX210 and upwards supports MLO but it's only on HW level and they are locked or turned off through driver level. I'm still trying to bypass this country/region locking features through driver by finding and modifying registry keys, my main problem isn't solving this issue.. my main problem is my spare time is limited to find out more about it and test out those experimental keys

Last time I tried to test keys it crashed my whole OS and I had to restore my OS through macrium backup images to restore my OS so it's two problem... time consuming and limited spare time

I am no expert, but couldn't you test these in a virtual environment and incur less delay with crashes?

I'm sorry to hear about your computer... it's really frustrating... I understand very well... thank you for the time you spare for us.

I am no expert, but couldn't you test these in a virtual environment and incur less delay with crashes?

Thanks for suggestions but Done that already and it didn't crash on VM, hence even on Clean Install Windows 11 24H2 with nothing else installed except using the experimental keys.. it would BSOD with an error pointing to Wi-Fi .sys file driver with The "SYSTEM THREAD EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED" error so... virtual environment doesn't really actually represent real world scenarios or real world use cases

I'm sorry to hear about your computer... it's really frustrating... I understand very well... thank you for the time you spare for us.

I'm thankful for your kind words and your support. I won't give up and I will continue researching about this, there are function on driver level about this region locked crap, I just need to figure out the right keys and the right combination of settings to make it work without blue screens or BSODs

 

[ppredator83]

.I have not only a be200 network card but also an expensive router with MLO technology! If necessary, I can test the drivers that THEBOSS619 will make for myself. Thank you

The basis for running a VM (Virtual Machine) is to prevent the environment from collapsing due to drivers, apps, etc.
Therefore, it is essential to check operation in a non-VM environment.
Therefore, it is unavoidable to be in a state where you are constantly on the edge of danger.

Notice:- The newer release of 3.1624.1204.0 version of Killer Intelligence Center got patched

• I guess I have woken up Intel inner evil...

Intel patched the workaround that I have made to make Killer Intelligence Center to work on non-Killer Wi-Fi chip and with the new version of Intel Killer Software update from Microsoft Store, they no longer show you the UI if you don't have a Killer Wi-Fi chip but don't worry... I am working on making sure that the services like (.exe, .dll, etc...) will get updated along with Killer drivers as well like (.sys, .dat, etc...) will be bundled and used so you aren't missing anything!

Here's some picture proof that MS Store updated the killer app once the new driver gets installed and Intel are blocking the UI for non-Killer Wi-Fi chip although the services/drivers are still working/functioning/running normally.

Obviously on the next Intel Killer Intelligence Center releases I must keep the driver versioning the same to prevent MS Store from auto updating the app as when you update the app.. the UI no longer works! So I'll just simply update the services and killer main drivers along with changes and fixes being applied on future driver releases.

Expect a new Intel Killer Intelligence Center update soon on the incoming days from me with completely modded of version 3.1624.1204.0 driver so we can have best of the both worlds... having a working UI and enjoying the latest Intel officially update releases at the same time

This problem only affects the app UI, the Wi-Fi drivers will keep getting updates normally with the same officially versioning without issues.

 

[THEBOSS619]

New Update for Killer Intelligence Center AKA 3.1624.1204.0 Completely Modded.

Due to Intel patching the App UI that blocks Non-Killer Wi-Fi chip from ever showing UI. The app version will still display the older version but that's only the UI to prevent MS Store from Auto updating it to the patched App release .

Other files and drivers and services are all being updated to 3.1624.1204.0 without a single issue. You can even check the .exe killer related files individually which will show that they are using the latest file releases from Intel

Here's a picture for illustration about what I mean.

• Tag Name [Modded] means is using latest Intel Killer release update 3.1624.1204.0 except the UI will stay at 3.1624.1026.1 While the unmodded ones the whole thing is using the old 3.1624.1026.1.

Main post will be updated with this information so the new users knows the whole thing regarding Intel patching the App that prevents Non-Killer Wi-Fi users from showing UI.

Changelog:-

• Modified the setup files and script and how it calls files to setup properly.
• Updated the whole thing (except App UI) to latest Intel Killer release update 3.1624.1204.0
• The zip file will have a tag name [Modded] to differentiate between old vs new ones.

The new Intel Killer Intelligence Center can be downloaded from the main post on the attachment section! Enjoy

Try this one , hopefully this should fix your problem Forgive me for my late replies as it's out of my control regarding my slow responses. I'm trying to keep up as much as I can

Hello THEBOSS619
This driver is working well
Both AX201 and AX210 work without any problems
I don't know why but it seems to work a lot smoother
I'm happy

I just wanted to let you know that I tested the new version 23.110.0.5 of the modded driver on my Intel Killer™ Wi-Fi 6 AX1650i adapter and it works perfectly. Thank you so much for all your hard work and dedication in updating these drivers—it really makes a difference!

 

[Hotlod]

Thank you, but I would like to understand what changes are in the drivers?

Hello ppredator83
When you install the driver?
Or is it a change to the driver?
This driver is used to make it a killer
As for the changes this time, I feel like communication has become lighter in my environment.
Also, I installed the driver directly and the killer center worked without any problems.
This was something that I couldn't do in my environment with the previous driver installer

 

[ppredator83]

The latest drivers do not work with my 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz and 6 GHz networks in MLO mode!

 

[Hotlod]

I can't confirm that wifi7 works in my environment.
Please ask someone else about MLO
I'm sorry I can't help you.

I have an Intel be1750 killer wnic and an AMD motherboard. it is known that Intel made these wnics incompatible with AMD motherboards. I am just wondering if your custom drivers have a workaround for that, so that killer wnics could be used on AMD motherboards? thanks and take care.

I can't install version 1204, still 1026 is installed

 

[THEBOSS619]

Thank you, but I would like to understand what changes are in the drivers?

I keep my driver releases published with changelog and what changes I made on the driver whenever Intel releases a new driver. So that I keep everything organized and easy to follow for people. You can use the search function on the this thread and check every new driver releases changelog I will try to compile the changes I have made and post it on the main post once I get the time.

The latest drivers do not work with my 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz and 6 GHz networks in MLO mode!

tell me your HWID and I will see what I can do about it MLO thing is complicated thing as I don't have any kind of access to this MLO feature nor the router to support it. So I'm going blindly on this one.

I can't promise you anything but I will have a look

I can't install version 1204, still 1026 is installedView attachment 385313

Because Intel patched the app workaround which lets non-Killer Wi-Fi chip to work with the app hence why I kept it at 1026 version for only the app, the driver is still updated to 1204 version without issue.

The app is patched on 1204 version [it's only the app UI] , I mentioned about it on the main post why I kept the app on old version while the driver is updated to the newer version on the main post, please check out the main post

Yes, I saw it, but I have another question. For some reason, this application closes itself. Do we have a solution for this?

It gives these errors, maybe you want to take care of it

View attachment 385473View attachment 385474It gives these errors, maybe you want to take care of it

that looks like a Microsoft problem rather than driver one. I guess Windows Defender are false flagging it, Because anything related to .exe or .dat or .dll or anything else are purely untouched and purely taken directly from Intel. The only single thing that's modified are the .inf files, this applies to Intel Killer Intelligence Drivers and Intel Wi-Fi Killer drivers. Both have .inf files being modified... anything else is not touched at all.

I guess maybe allow this process through Windows defender or add it to the whitelist? I don't know but I never encountered such a problem.

 

[tlhtsdmr]

I added it for about 4 days and it is still the same. From what I can see, it seems to be caused by driver inf signing. It is not a problem, but maybe it can be useful for you, so I wanted to share it.

Thank you for sharing it
this is really weird, can you try to re-install the Intel-KillerNetworkInstaller[Modded] driver? maybe something got messed up during the installation or maybe this time... do it while Windows Defender real-time scanning is "Off". It might be or maybe the Windows Defender detecting the installer script and blocking part of the installation process that's part of Intel's setup phases.

I just downloaded the driver you shared, I have the same problem. It is most likely caused by the application, but do you have a solution to icloud blocking?
