intel dual band wireless ac 7260 wont detect connections

To my understanding, the issue is with network card (intel 7260) which has new firmware available, only I didn't find anyway to activate it. I'm at the campus right now, so things might not seem exactly as I described them. I note that to stop iwlwifi I have to stop both iwlmvm and iwldvm. Updating the Intel firmware - It still doesn't connect.So, how do I avoid/handle the mishaps? Things I have tried: I'm more concerned about the ideapad machine as the edge machine is soon to turn into a stationary machine that connects via cable. Interestingly, live USB of Lubuntu connected on the edge machine. The Edge machine currently runs Arch, but Ubuntu didn't connect with it as well. I have two Lenovo machines (Edge 13 and ideapad u330p) both doesn't connect.This might be a coincidental, but often, the machine connects right after I plug my phone as WiFi card.From my experience, if I wait long enough (like an hour) the chances are it will connect are higher.Currently, my home network doesn't have a password, or spaces in its name.I know I should put some data here, I don't what technical data I should put, but here are some anecdotes: Finally, I can use my android devices as a usb wifi card. I can connect to android devices hot spot easily. My machine sometimes (more often no than yes) doesn't connect to my home wifi.
