Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection problem under Win XP (Latitude D430 computer laptop)

I use Latitude D430 Laptop & Windows XP. Initially, it is ok, but after some time I have a connection problem. I have run the diagnostics & "Radio Test" failed. Any idea about this problem? The problem is solved only when I restart my computer. I think the Win XP driver problem because I don't have this problem when I use Win Vista. Everyone knows it needs to solve this problem?

  • Intermittently lose connection WiFi. XP Pro, Intel Pro/Wireless 3945ABG

    I recently recovered from a nasty virus and my computer seems back to normal except an annoying problem. Periodically, I lose my wireless connection. It happens on multiple networks, so I know it's the computer. I updated my drivers (all who were on the Dell support site specific for my service tag) and still not fixed. I used to be forced to restart, but now (after the driver update), I can use the Device Manager to disable, and then enable the wireless adapter and the connection returns every time... but its obviously annoying.

    Any suggestions would be helpful. I have a Dell Latitude D630 running XP Pro. The
    card is an Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG. Thanks in advance.

    You may not say anything on the power saving mode, but the link you posted has done. None of these things worked anyway.

    However, I found a solution that others may find useful. Apparently the Dell Web site is not exhaustive with regard to the pilots. I found a update for my driver wireless on a third party site, Drivermax.com

    After the update, the problem has been resolved. DriverMax is an application that is free to download and much appreciated on download.com

    Free version allows only download driver per day, so be sure to choose carefully.

    Lesson learned: sites Web of manufacturers is not always the best place to find updates driver

  • Satellite A100-784 - Intel PRO Wireless 3945ABG off randomly

    Hello

    I have Toshiba Satellite A100-784 with Intel PRO Wireless 3945ABG wireless adapter.
    Today I was working with my friend on some project connected on his wifi sharing internet connection on Toshiba Satellite A100-510.
    After a while I lose the internet connection and I see that this blue icon is no longer in the test system.

    I try to use Toshiba ConfigFree but it was impossible to open, so I try to open the network connection of the control panel and after a period of time the network connection has been accessible and I saw that this network adapter is disabled. I try to activate three times but nothing.

    After rebooting, everything was ok and wireless adapter is turned on and ready to use for the next 10 or 15 minutes.
    First disable comes after two hours. I use Windows XP SP 2.

    The problem is that I have to restart my computer everytime where I lose internet connection (WiFi is turned off automatically).
    Everything is blocked its very hard to access the settings of network or toshiba configfree

    Thank you

    Try this:

    Update the BIOS of the laptop
    Update driver Intel Wireless LAN
    Use static IP addresses, instead of dynamic (DHCP)
    Temporarily disable your firewall software
    Update the Firmware on your Access Point

  • Intel Pro/Wireless 3945ABG cannot load the driver

    Wireless worked fine since I bought this laptop

    Now it has stopped working and has a yellow exclamation mark in Device Manager - it says "this device does not work properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31) »

    So I uninstalled the device and check the box that says "Remove the driver for this device", then reinstalled the latest version of the driver on the Toshiba site 11.5.0.32.

    Windows Vista detects new hardware and install the driver, but fails with 'Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error trying to install it. The system cannot find the file specified. "

    All ideas

    Remove the wireless network adapter in the device, download manager driver the latest from Intel page and repeat the procedure of installation of the driver.

    Good luck

  • Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG slow wireless

    Hello
    I reformatted my laptop on a wek ago, and since then, I've noticed that my wireless works more slowly than usual.

    Before he was reformatted my download speed is about 240KB, but now it's about 160KB download. It is not the source of the download as my old Toshiba with an external wifi adapter gets about 240KB download the same file.

    I've updated the drivers to those most recent outside, but it has not changed a thing.

    I don't know what I can do and any help will be appreciated.

    Dan

    Hello

    Your Intel Wireless card supports three different modes of WLan: A, B and G
    These three different modes that also supports different speeds.
    In my opinion your use a slow or well the server mode where you download files of does not support a faster speed.

    All WLan settings, you should find in the WLan card properties. He just go to Device Manager, select WLan CAD and click Properties.
    On the Advanced tab, you'll find plenty of options, and there you can choose A, B or G mode.
    Additional I recommend you disable the saving on this card.

  • Satellite A200 - Intel Pro Wireless 3945 fall

    Hello
    I have a problem with my laptop Satellite A200 (with Vista Home Premium 32 bit) where the Intel Pro Wireless connection keeps itself turning off after several minutes or several hours of use.

    In network connections, the wireless connection is shown as people with reduced mobility. When I try to enable it, it will say something like "Enable already ongoing attempt". And he's never coming back. However, wireless orange light is always on the cell phone all the time. The only way to reactivate the wireless connection, is to restart the system.

    I know this is a very common problem, I see the same problem among other threads on this forum.

    After a short search on Google, and I see that many other people have the same problem too, particularly with Dell laptops. Forum sites there 2 in particular, that have the most information on this topic, I found:

    http://www.vistaforums.com/Forum/Topic4198-45-1.aspx
    http://thevistaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=9834

    These are the things that I tried to resolve this problem:
    (I got all the drivers from the site http://www.toshiba.co.nz, that I got this laptop from NZ and the specific laptop model number is PSAFCA A200)

    -Updated the BIOS with the latest version.
    In fact, I think that updated the BIOS could be the cause of this problem wireless, or in part. Because a few months back, the laptop kept cutting itself no reason apparent, perhaps once or twice a week. So I've updated the BIOS, which actually fixed the random stops, but since then, I've known this wireless problem. Coincidence maybe.

    -Upgrade to the latest driver for the wireless network.
    I tried a various number of drivers. Later off the coast of http://www.toshiba.co.nz, http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/, http://www.intel.com. None of them have worked.
    For the moment, I use the older driver comes preinstalled with Vista.
    Intel Pro wireless 3945ABG (Microsoft) was sometimes since 2006. And surprisingly, this one works best. Drop-outs are not as frequent as more recent drivers, but the problem still happens.
    With this new drivers (dated from 2007), I find that it turns off several times a day. Once or twice an hour.
    With the former, once every two hours.
    That's what I feel, it is probably coincidence.

    -Update of Windows Vista with service pack 1.

    -Updated the firmware on my router. It is a DLink G604T. However, I doubt that it is one router problem, my other laptop running fine without any abandonment wireless.

    -Power WLAN disabled economic option.
    Under power settings, select the setting of maximum performance.

    -Set lowest roaming aggressiveness, even tried with highest.

    -On the "Power Management" tab in the properties for Intel Pro Wireless 3945ABG Network connection, tried to activate and deactivate the option "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".

    -Done a full virus/spyware scan.

    -Uninstalled the software Toshiba Wireless Zero Configuration.

    I think I've tried just about everything that I can, so I'm here pretty much as a last resort.
    I hope someone can help me solve this problem.
    It was so annoying since many months now! It's not fun to have to restart the laptop all the time.

    Thank you.

    I see that you have tired most of the things that I would say too
    You said that WLan works better using the old driver Wlan MS if it s really a WLan driver problem

    But what said
    I searched a bit in the MS knowledge base and found this article:
    + Several problems occur on a Windows Vista-based computer when you work in a wireless network environment.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB; EN-US; 932063

    Check it out.

    But a friend of mine had a similar problem of Wlan and nothing helped, he did a update BIOS, set the Wlan driver, etc.. nothing!

    Finlay, he changed WiFi channels.
    He chose the other channel on the router and wireless network and since then the Wlan card works well...

    Maybe it s worth a try!

  • Home wireless network connection problems

    What should I do if I normally connect to the wireless network does not appear?  It is not a network card problem, because I can connect to other wireless and school and other places.  I tried to reset the router, ping and by unplugging and seeing what I could understand on the computer at home, but nothing does.  Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Have you tried other computers to connect to your router? You use both wire and wireless
    connection?

    Unplug the modem and Router 3 + minutes. And then reconnect the modem - when it is running
    Plug in the router - when it is running - restart the computer. This is known as a hard reset.

    Check with your router manufacturer support.

  • Wireless network connection problems

    I have problems to stay connected to my wireless router.  There are 3 laptops and 2 workstations connected, but my laptop does not seem to disconnect every time my computer sleeps or is closed.  I have to go through this process to solve the problem in which the connection is immediately restored, but then disconnected and connected once again. I tried to remove the connection & restores and troubleshooting with the router, but nothing seems to solve the problem. Other computers never have this problem.  My laptop is fairly new, and I'm quite puzzled as to why he's in trouble.

  • Wireless network connection problem

    Nice day

    I have a wireless network connection problem and I ask for help to resolve.
    What surprises me that this problem appeared suddenly, I used to connect to the WIFI correctly but two days ago my laptop could not connect to the WIFI and more.

    Other devices and computers connect with success so I think that the problem in my laptop.
    I don't have any changes on my laptop or windows, antivirus, drivers... updates or installed new software.
    Troubleshooting of Windows detected 'router or access point issues '.
    -Reset the router does not resolve the problem
    -Network adapter is enabled.
    -State of wireless card "working properly" and "update".

    I read a solution on this site, which was to change the properties of the wireless adapter, but the changes mentioned does not appear in the pilot of my laptop...

    * My laptop info. :
    DELL INSPIRON 3521
    Windows 7-64 bit
    Dell WIreless 1703 802.11b/g/n(5.2GHz)

    Sorry for this long to make, I appreciated all the help.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Have you tried to reset your laptop to a time before this issue started with a Windows 7 Restore Point?  If it is a parameter change or software this restore point can help solve what is at the origin of the problem.

    I'd also, of course, when you are resetting the router, to make sure that you let it sit for at least 30 seconds to a minute before plugging power back in.  You may need to do a few times to clear his memory to be able to connect.

    In addition, have updated the drivers for the wireless card?  What version of driver currently installed in the system?  You can consult our support site, enter your serial number and click on drivers & Downloads to find the driver for your wireless card.

    Finally, have you tried to empty the wireless profiles that are currently stored in your system?   If you delete the profile current wireless (which is to control your connection to the router), reboot your system, and try to reconnect Windows will rebuild the profile and hopefully allow you to log in again.

    I would like to know if any of this helps.  To help resolve this more effectively please click on my user name Dell Todd and send me a private message with the Number of Dell Service from your system.  Please keep all troubleshooting and discussions on this thread open so that others can find the information they need to solve their problems.
