In my case they are both Dell E65xx fairly old but still serviceable.

E6500 has

    Network controller: Intel Corporation Ultimate N WiFi Link 5300

E6510 has
    Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 
(rev 35)

My workaround.

On the Dell E6500

	installed CentOS 7.0 from DVD ( development workstation )
           wifi works
        
        updated to CentOS 7.1 ( 7.1503 ) using vault.centos.org 
           wifi works

        updated to CentOS 7.2 ( 7.1511 ) using local repo
           wifi works

So I ended up with a working 7.2.

Hope this helps someone.

Tony.

Ok, but still unclear where the problem is sitting.
Someone tested elrepro or my vanilla kernel

http://centos.cms4all.org/centos/7/kernel/x86_64/ ?

Sincerely

Andy
