Intel(R) WiFi Link 5100 AGN most recent driver issue with SEP

I need a solution

I asked something similar to this and now I want to take a slightly different angle with this question. Here is the link to my previous thread. Warning: it is LONG and what I am asking here is pretty similar to what I have just recently published.

Here is the link,

Wireless NIC is not picking up and IP address and can not reach out to any network. This started when we were imaging, but I am beginning to think that this had nothing to do with the image and probably something to do with the most current update of the driver for the Intel(R) WiFi Link 5100 AGN

The Wireless NIC is Intel(R) WiFi Link 5100 AGN, I noticed, it did this on a machine that was NOT part of our newest image, but the SAME exact thing happened after I updated the Wireless NIC drivers with the previous drivers, there were NO connection issues.

Again, the resolution was the same, go the the properties of the Wireless NIC while SEP is turned off using smc -stop, remove IPv4, restart, then re add IPv4. I am curious to know if there is something going on with the most recent driver for the Intel(R) WiFi Link 5100 AGN.

What I really would like to know is if there are issues between SEP and Intel(R) WiFi Link 5100 AGN's most current drivers? I just updated a Windows 7 (64 bit) Laptop and the SEP installation was version 12.1.2100.2093. It also happened with 12.1.2015.2015.

I am hoping to make some leeway here because not only would I like an answer and a solution, but I am assuming others may run into similar issues.

Many thanks!
