• Very limited wireless connection

  I have a HP Pavilion dv7 - 3153ca with a 64-bit windows system 7 and I'm only able to get a wireless connection when the laptop is very close to the modem. Once the laptop is moved, for example, to another floor of the House, the connection is lost and cannot be re established until I have the back next to the modem. He has no problem with the wired connection. This has happened while he was trying to pass my McAfee security provider, although I don't think this is the problem that my other laptop (a Dell) converted without this problem. The other laptop continues to maintain its connection Wireless throughout the House, so the router and the modem is not the issue. I downloaded and re-installed the adapter without modification. I have scanned the laptop and nothing is reported in the mess. Are there any ideas as to why the wireless connection works only when the laptop remains close to the modem? Thank you.

  It seems I may not have been very clear in my previous post.  I wanted to suggest was to reverse the connection of the antenna.  As mentioned in the thread I linked, the connections might have been reversed from what they should be from the factory.  If this is the case, then connect the antennas in a factory setting would not solve the problem.

  Have you tried to reverse the antennas?  If they are in the deformities, then this would fix it.  If they are in the right position, then the worst you would have (only in the deformities) would drop signal strength.

• Problem with laptop Pavilion dv6 wireless connection

  I have a problem with a computer laptop dv6-6b50ea Pavilion of customers. He has win7 64 bit installed and an Intel Centrino WirelessN1030 with blutooth wireless card.

  The user has used the laptop abroad with a 3G usb dongle with T-Mobile, but now wants to connect to his home wireless router.

  Initially only the two switched 3g options are visible in the network for the connection options. Therefore, I uninstalled all T-Mobile software for control of the key usb 3g and removed the dial two profiles, but the laptop wouldn't see any wireless connection.

  The orange light was on the f12 key and I couldn't get the wireless to work. Finally I found that even if it has been enabled in the HP connection manager, it has been disabled by Windows Mobility Center. I finally got the light turns white but still saw wireless networks while two other laptops could see the router in the same place.

  I took the computer laptop and tried it on my own wireless network, and although he saw them he said that they were very poor and wouldn't connect. I tried all the normal things like turning off the antivirus and windows firewall. I've updated the software of the driver from the HP website, but it still wouldn't connect.

  Finally, in desperation I disabled two virtual connections created by the driver. Finally he saw all my access points Wi - Fi including some a long way outside. I have is that it connects and thought that I had a crush, but restarting it would link is no longer. Since I brought the oldes driver I can find on the Intel site, updated twice by HP Support Assistant, who has updated the bios and installed the latest drivers intel, but it now not see any wireless network, or if it does sporadically and does not connect. Ethernet connection works fine.

  I've seen lots of messages on mobile phones of series dv6000 with Wi - Fi and an overheating issues etc. What is the same thing with the dv6 6b50ea?

  Any suggestion would be appreciated

  I had a very similar problem with Tablet Dell Latitude slate ST of my son.

  He has the card brand Dell Atheros wireless bluetooth/wireless combo. He had connection problems in W7, but I was finally able to make it work most of the time.

  I saw on the Dell forums, a lot of people complain about this card.

  I installed W8 on the Tablet and there is no pilot, so I resorted to an old driver w7 and I can't get the map to work most of the time.

  So, I ordered an Intel 6230 without wireless/bluetooth combo card for it and I'll see if it makes a difference.  Intel has W8 drivers for the card.

  I did the same thing you did... inserted a map of the network, D - Link DWA-125 USB into the USB port.  W8 recognized, installed the drivers and it connects without any problems at all.

  The difference between my situation and your is however that the 1030 Intel has no problems experienced with W7 link I know, that's why I suggested a factory reset to see if you can start from scratch and exclude a hardware malfunction.

  If the card still does not work, then of course we should be replaced by a card support listed in the service manual.  Unlike Dell, with all computers laptops HP, you can install one of the maps in the service manual and they must have the part number HP on them or they do not work.

  It depends on what chipset your laptop has know what version of the Intel Management Engine Interface (MEI) driver, you need to install, but it will be one of the two.

  If you know what chipset has your laptop, then you can choose one that fits.

  If your laptop is a mobile Intel 6 series chipset, then use the first I posted.

  If it has a mobile Intel 5 series chipset, use the other I posted.

• Satellite L50 - Has - no WIRELESS connection found trying to get online

  Hello

  I use WIFI to connect to the net.

  I can't see my internet connections for my WIFI. I can be downloaded on laptops and other devices.

  At first I could just turn off and on and it would work. Then I disabled and re-enable the Qualcom Atheros Ethernet. Now, nothing works.

  I tried to download the WLAN on this Web site. It still does not work. Not sure if I downloaded it correctly. I found the files, but the exe is from 2013.

  Help, please.

  Kind regards

  Can you please check the WLan module details in Device Manager?
  Information (name, State) is important get the driver of Toshiba driver page.

  I guess you only a problem with the WiFi connection and by using the LAN connection, you are able to access the internet. Is this correct?

  I guess that there is a conflict between the WLan standards or WLan encryption.
  In General, the WLan router and the module/Wlan card must be on the same WiFi 802.11 standard (ie: A, B, G, N).

  You must also make sure that the encryption (WPA/WPA2 AES, TKIP) is supported by the wireless network adapter.
  Sometimes, this can cause problems...

  If you wish, you can disable (but only for testing) WLan encryption and could try to connect the laptop to 'open' LAN wireless... it would help allows you to check if the current encryption creates some problems.

• Pavilion laptop laptop 15-ab150sa: wireless connection

  Hello

  Have been pulling my hair out for 10 days! Bought my phone last Monday. Wireless guard disabling works on starting for up to 30 minutes and then packs in. Other devices (phone, old phone) workfine, so don't think it's the router (I have re-set the router more than once). Internet works fine when the ethernet cable is plugged. Adapter WiFi (Intel R Dual Band Wireless AC 3165) is disabled in the network and sharing Center and cannot be re-activated, unless the computer is restarted. Have used the feature of HP Support Assistant and Windows troubleshooting troubleshooting too! I tried most of the suggestions on this site (including resetting the router, etc system restore) and none have worked. Any help will be much appreciated. Please note, even though I have some knowledge of basic, I'm no expert so would like easy to follow the instuctions.

  Thank you in advance

  Hello:

  The only suggestion I can offer would be to try the latest driver for the card wirelessly directly from Intel and see if that solves the problem.  The new version is on 9 November and is probably more recent than the installed HP.

  The second pilot on the page is for W10 64 bit.

  As you can see it's not a fast connection wireless card or something like that.

  First of all, it would be very interesting to know the name of your unit, because I know if your laptop has a wireless card or if it of possible to update the device with the Mini-PCI Wireless card.

  If your laptop has a wireless card so you need activate the wireless antenna. The switch on the side of the unit, you should find. In addition, choose the wifi with the FN + F8 key combination.
  Well, now you have an AccesPoint in your neighborhood. If there isn't one available then you should see it. Go to network connections. Here, you must select the list of wireless network in network and refresh.

  But if you have a wireless card so you need to upgrade your laptop with the minPCI card, or the wireless USB stick or a PCMCIA wireless card

• wireless connected but internet does not work

  Since yesterday my laptop has had problems connecting to the internet. It will say that it is connected to the internet but yet when I open a browser or any other program requiring internet, it does not work. However, when I use the same connection from another laptop, the internet works.

  I tried to use the option diagnose & repair and he always tells me that everything is fine. I also tried to restart my laptop and check my firewall settings, which did not help either. any help would be greatly appreciated!

  Hello

  Turn off the router or the modem (unplug the power supply) - wait 3 minutes, then the power restore - restart the computer.

  If necessary:

  Two methods - I would try 1. first and use 2. only if necessary because with 2 it can come back.

  1.

  Your router could be suspicious here, you have successfully updated its firmware as a possible solution? And I would like to
  Update your WiFi drivers on computers. How you are positioned in the router? Are there
  obstacles in the path?

  Actually try updating your driver and disabling the network logon. If you usually use WiFi try a wire
  and if you usually use a wire try WiFi. Update, one being not used 1.

  Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
  version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
  Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version. (The
  manufacturer of system become your backup policies).

  Repeat for card (NIC) network and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as Vista like
  updated drivers.

  I would also turn off auto update for the drivers. If the updates Windows suggests a just HIDE as they
  are almost always old, and you can search drivers manually as needed.

• my computer has limited connectivity to my wireless network

  I have windows 7 Home Basic 64 bit. I have the network wireless in my house, but would not have access to the internet on my laptop. It connects to the network but still warn me that your computer has limited connectivity to my wireless network. Please help me!

  Hello

  1. have you made changes on the computer before this problem?
  2. you receive an error message or error code?
  3. What is the number of brand and model of your computer?

  4. who is the ISP?

  Method 1:

  See wireless and wired network connection problems in Windows:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/help/wired-and-wireless-network-connection-problems-in-Windows

   

  Method 2: You can also temporarily disable the security software and check if the problem persists. Be sure to enable this security software on the computer after checking.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

  If disabling the security software solves the problem, then contact the manufacturer of the specific security software to fix the problem.

  Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  Method 3:

   

  Uninstall and reinstall the network adapter driver.

  Step 1: uninstall the network adapter driver.

  a. open the Device Manager by clicking the Start button, click on the Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance, and then clicking Device Manager.
  c. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
  c. find the network device based on the option of the network card, right-click on it and select uninstall.
  d. restart the computer.

  Step 2: Download the latest network card driver on the manufacturer's Web site and install it on your computer.

  Hope the above information is helpful.

• Connection has limited or no connectivity / wireless network not detected

  So two problems here

  1. I used to transfer studies ultrasound scanner for my HP Mini 110 - 1025DX PC. For this I used to establish a connection to the system, where the name of the internet connection was same as in HP mini and address IP was also the same, except for the last digit (i, e XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXX1 vs XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:XXX2). Firewall Windows should also be disabled for mini HP transfer studies. I repeated these steps after reinstalling windows but icon in the mini bar of task HP says limited connectivity or none and so I can't transfer studies. How can I solve this problem.
  2-HP mini also has Wi - Fi. Is there a way can mini HP tell me networks wireless in my range so that I can choose mine, key network related so that my wireless internet access also starts to work.  I'll be very grateful for any help.

  You want to connect your mini to the ultrasound with a cable machine and the mini to your wireless router to access the Internet.

  The next part of the instructions

  Right-click on the icon for your wireless adapter and select Properties

  should have been

  Right-click on the icon for your Ethernet card, and select Properties

  in order to properly configure your Ethernet (wired) connection to the ultrasound machine.  Sorry for the mistake.

  And, of course, if the mini is connected to the machine to ultrasound with the Ethernet cable, it is not to connect to the Internet via cable.

  Maybe you need to explain more clearly what the situation is.

  • The ultrasound using a cable or a wireless connection?
  • You want to be able to plug a cable between the mini and the ultrasound machine and when you have completed data transfer, connect a cable between the mini and your router?
  • When you "used to transfer studies ultrasound scanner to your HP mini" could you unplug the cable from the ultrasound machine and connect it to your router and connect to the Internet?

• Satellite Pro A100 has "limited or no connectivity" & no connection to the local network

  Hello!

  I + really + hope someone might be able to help with this - been going slowly crazy.

  Bought my A100 18 months ago in Australia while I lived there and had no trouble to connect to LANs and others with my wireless. Everything was shipped over to me (here in London) last week and everything seems to have gone pear shaped. The House I live in has Wireless Broadband comes with our Sky Cable subscription, working on (I think - there is no real marking on the device) a router wireless Netgear A/G dual band (108 Mbps 802.11 b/g network). My laptop model is: SatellitePro A100 (part No.: PSAACE-007002EN) and it works on the following network hardware (drivers installed in brackets):

  1394 net adapter (5.1.2535.0)
  Intel(r) PRO/1000 PL Network Connection (9.2.24.0)
  Intel (R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (10.1.0.13)

  I used the Sky Broadband installation disc to set up the network, but every time I try to connect it tells me that I have "Limited or no connectivity" and will not let me online. I've been on the phone for Technical Support of sky for hours, trying to get this sort, but when I plug in the Ethernet cable to the laptop it will not even get to communicate directly with the router (i.e. put the IP address of the router in explore and view the settings of the router). My 'Connectivity Doctor' shows there is a problem with my wireless connection (which the network has not assigned a network address of the computer), but no problem with my ethernet connection and yet neither will allow me to get online and every time that I try to repair the wireless connection I get an error message saying that Windows could not renew the IP address.

  I have disabled the Bluetooth, reset the router I don't know how many times and made sure that all cards have been activated and crosses without bad red and yellow exclaimation in Device Manager. All network devices seem to be "working properly" (according to the properties of the device).

  After days of weeding through the proverbial haystack of resources online while at work, I think that the problem is either something very simple (i.e. a setting random advanced configuration). I read somewhere as you will need to 'install' the router on the system, and that is not "plug and play" as Sky Broadband seems to have deduced by phone... but I would have thought the installation CD has done this, as when I discovered my connections (when the Ethernet cable is plugged in), it recognizes the connection (it won't only ++ anything). If there is no specific process I need to follow in order to properly install the Netgear router (for which I am currently trying to see if there are appropriate drivers, I need to download), I'd appreciate a lot of the age of enlightenment! It could also be a question that I need to reset the network key in the security settings of the router, as there are already three computers in the House connected to the network... but of course I can not do without first sorting on why my laptop can still communicate with the router via the Ethernet connection.

  Points to note:
  -My laptop runs on Windows XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 2
  -The disc to install Sky Broadband installed Internet Explorer 7. the last time I was online, I think that I was still using 6.

  If anyone could be of any use to solve this puzzle, you have earned yourself my eternal gratitude!

  -Danielle

  Hello

  I think that the solution should be simple;
  I presume that you TCP/IP settings are false. I mean that the settings should be set to automatically assign the IP address.

  Please check this box. Simply go to the network connections-> local network connections TCP/IP properties properties

  He put everything on automatic
