• Extremely low signal wireless unable to connect to any network

  Hello

  I bought just a Studio 1535 and can not get the wireless to connect to any network unless I put the computer 2 feet or closer to the router.

  I am running Vista Home Premium, and according to the Device Manager my wireless is a Dell Wireless 1397 WLAN Mini card.

  When I'm right next to a router, I can connect either password protected or not.  Also, I have other computers can connect to each network without any problems.  I know that this is not a router problem.  I tried with several different routers and several different locations.

  I can see a long list of points connect wireless, each with what reads like excellent signal.  However, when I tell the computer to connect, I get a screen "Windows cannot connect to the ____."  When I select diagnose the problem, it says "Wireless association failed because windows did not receive response from the access point or wireless router.

  Dell support will not help me because I bought the computer at Best Buy and Geek Squad wants to send my computer is turned off (which I had for a day) to be diagnosed.  I would rather here check everything first...

  Thanks to all helpers, let me know what information you need from me!

  
  

• Atheros AR9285 in CQ61-410US wireless network card does not connect to the Internet after the update of the adapter driver

  I have a Compaq Presario CQ61-410US (WA974UA) which is equipped with an Atheros AR9285 B/G/N wireless network adapter.   The laptop Internet access was fast and stable when using a Wi - Fi N.   Its pilot AR9285 was the initial version of the 8.0.0.172 factory.  But because there were so many subsequent driver updates, I've updated the display driver version from the support page 8.9.9.316 (sp48755.exe).  However, after updating the driver, I immediately lost Internet access.   The laptop is running Windows 7 Home Premium with Service Pack 1 and 64-bit.

  The driver seems to be installed OK, but it does not connect to the Internet.  Here is the status of the driver: 1) in Device Manager it appears OK and is presented as working properly.  (2) in the results of IPCONFIG/all, it there is no entry for the wireless adapter and without IP addresses are affected.  Here are the results of the IPCONFIG/all command:

  I have read several messages from the HP Forum and tried a lot of things, including the installation of various updates driver later thanks to the version 10.0.0.222, but I still can't the driver to connect to the Internet.  I also changed my router "n" has only B/G as the AR9285 pilot has a history of problems with Wireless N.  Even back to the original driver version 8.0.0.172 provides an Internet connection.

  Any advice would be appreciated.

  Hello:

  I'm glad that you were able to restore your internet connection.

  I'd go with the latest driver HP vice one from another source.

  The only time wherever I go outside HP for wireless network drivers is if you have an Intel wireless card.

  My recommendation is to use the free MS Security Essentials antivirus/antispyware, which never interfere with how "things important works" on your PC, such as network connections.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=5201

  Your router with a hardware firewall and a software firewall Windows. I don't see the importance of adding other firewalls.

  Unless you have a lot of albums secret info on your PC that pirates would like to get my hands on, these fully functional security roadblocks are adequate for most of us.

• Atheros AR9285 802.11 wireless card does not work.

  Wireless for my laptop HP that atheros AR9285 recently stopped detecting my router while I have my Netgear G54 WGR614v10 encryption card any type of security, I chose, but it detects my router if I switch off my encryption.

  I read a post from Paul_Tikkanen Atheros WLAN Driver corrects connection issues with many new routers (Linksys, Netgear, D-Link, etc.), I downloaded the driver and installed it but it has not made a difference.

  I also watched to make sure that bluetooth was not on, I read somewhere that it might interfere with my wireless card, but it was not on.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!  Thank you

  Windows 7

  OK, this is strange, and then we will have to check each setting security on your router and your network card to make sure they match. Access your routers webpage bios and go to network security, if possible on your PC to cable and take note of the security settings and compare them with the security of network adapter settings.
  
  ~ Bios of router ~
  * Usually, which would be the mode key staff/Enterprise wpa or wep.
  * Then check that your type of encryption on the router security example would be AES or TKIP.
  * And then check your 802.11 mode.
  
  ~ NIC ~.
  * go to start button or charms right mouse click Select Network option and click. * highlight of the WiFi adapter which is having right mouse questions click.
  * then choose status to the next screen, click Properties wireless.
  * then select Security tab, try this on your laptop which works as well to make sure everything fits.
  
  Something must have went wrong with the installation of the driver. I think you need to remove or back the driver, restart your laptop and let windows update or HP support assistant app find the right driver for you if it does not.

• Pavilion dv4-2160us with Atheros AR9285 and D-Link WBR-2310 wireless router connection problem

  NB sometimes has problem connecting to the router. This occurs when the NP is booted from power, or when the connection of power mode after about a day of economy since his last connected. Although the network sharing Center sees the network to connect to, but shows only "restricted access". But if the power to the router is recycled, then the connection is established. The driver for the Atheros AR9285 is up-to-date. The firmware of the router is the latest v1.05.

  A test ping Google permanently on the NB and a computer that is connected to the router to isolate the problem. Whenever Google is ping successfully, it displays a message and the response time in milliseconds. If the ping fails, the message will be "Ping: transmit failed." General failure. "  It turns out that, while the test on the wired computer worked without a hitch, the NB has shown that at the same time, the internet connection was lost during the time of connection. He then recovered after a few 'pings '. At another time, the internet connection has been lost permanently without recovery, also during the time of connection.

  Anyone has the same problem?

  After changing the security mode WPA2 to WEP router wireless, the problem seems to have disappeared. It's been 3 days and the computer can still make the connection to the router. HP support says that HP wireless network adapter works best with the WEP security setting.

• Instability Wireless: Atheros AR9285 briefly disconnects every few minutes

  I bought an ASUS K50ID on Newegg and tried to connect to my Netgear wireless-N, through its Atheros AR9285 (who claims to have installed the latest drivers)

  Connections starts without a hitch, but after awhile, I noticed that the connection would be cut at random for just a second.  It was not bad enough to attract my attention just browsing, but when I tried to use Windows Live Messenger, it disconnect me every 5 or 10 minutes, and then I would sign immediately.  He would say that he had to reconnect to the network, is not just a problem of software with WLM.

  I have disabled the option to turn the card wireless for powersaving (also, it's funny that it uses by default this option to 'on')

  I looked for manual updated driver, but Atheros website is confusing and sometimes in French and is not my card the list of drivers, only for more information.

  I checked my router settings, etc., and it seems fine.  It of just that sanded Atheros AR9285 and its lack of will to stay connected! Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to provide.

  P.S. I also disabled the IP assistance service, someone said that it can solve. There can be no.

  Hello

  Check with ASUS updated drivers manually as well as possible firmware updates for the
  Netgear router. Also check the placement of the router - if it is closer to 6 feet or too far-
  is there a lot of electrical interference or metal in the line of fire - or too many walls - different
  floors of level - or just distance.

  Of course there would be something wrong with the new computer - or the router.

  Check with the ASUS support and their forums.

• HP Pavilion DV6 3050TX: (low range) wireless network driver problem

  My hard drive and motherboard both damaged so I installed a new hard drive and the motherboard and install a new copy of Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit). But after installing a new copy of windows, the serious problem that I found are to find the right drivers for the wifi and bluetooth. HP has listed a lot of driver for bluetooth and WIFI but that is just and appropriate is not found. Not my WIFI range is decreased. Whenever need to uninstall the driver and reconnect after a few hours of use. As his 'Problem with access point or wireless adapter' shows in troubleshooting. I also installed a software called "Connectify" what internet part of the computer laptop connect as WIFI Hotspot but same problem the range is extremely low, even I keep my mobile phone or another close HP DV6 3050TX bar signal shows only 2 bars.

• Pavilion DV7-3165DX, Atheros AR9285 WiFi adapter, communication and incompatibility issues

  After much research, I decided to buy a Pavilion DV7-3065DX. Then, I walked to my local Best Buy to say the 3065DX had been abandoned and was no longer available for purchase. However, the 3165DX, his successor had arrived and was very similar to the previous generation. After a brief discussion to justify the increase of prices with myself, I gave and was sold.

  Within hours, I was in College, trying to connect to the WiFi network without success. After several hours becoming more and more frustrated, I decided to call it closes unexpectedly. Rushing home after class, I plugged the new Linksys WRT160N, I had also bought wireless router and configured on my desk. Once completed, I tried to connect using the new Pavilion. To my surprise, it worked! (And no problem whatsoever no less). So, apparently, the wireless adapter works, but does so only on some networks.

  A week later, I tried to connect to a number of public and private WiFi networks of different types with limited success. Most importantly, I am able to connect to my home network, but not to the public networks in my college or city libraries. At one point, the Office for my college indicated that my WiFi adapter is one of a handful of cards on the list of incompatible devices to their network. As it was to buy the laptop in the first place, I am extremely frustrated.

  I turned to the support pages of HP for a solution. I considered a update driver despite the use of the HP Wizard to keep abreast on all software downloads and updates. To my dismay, product for the Pavilion DV7-3165DX page lists of Broadcom WiFi adapter, which does not correspond to my hardware (Atheros AR9285). What's worse, is that the manufacturer's website offers no driver downloads to customers that its site is adapted directly to product manufacturers.

  At this point, I'm increased and not sure what to do. I am already attached to this laptop. Apart from the war with his fingerprints on its black and shiny chrome surfaces shiny, the problem with the Atheros WiFi card is the only problem that I had. I hate having to go through the ordeal to return, and I do not think that this problem requires the sending of the product to HP for repair. Furthermore, I believe that if it came down to one of those, I simply return the product and find my way to another product by other manufacturers in total.

  This certainly isn't the experience I had hoped with my first purchase of HP.

  Any suggestions?

  I have the same question... However with me the solution wasn't in the pilot. I spent 3 hours on the phone with technical support, try to understand.

  What it comes down to say that Atheros AR 9285 is a shi * ty wireless card. It supports 802.11n Protocol, but only 2.4 GHz (the same as the b/g frequencies). My Cysco wireless router was broadcasting 5 GHz Wireless-N and AR 9285 was not able to detect it. Once I changed the router settings to allow 2.4 GHz Wireless-N Networking, the Atheros card was able to connect under the Protocol N. However, the maximum speeds of 2.4 GHz card are slower than 5 GHz card.

  I wish they would give an option to choose what wireless card to install in my laptop. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. I'm always done what they me screwed on.

• HP Pavilion G6 1283SL & questions Atheros AR9285

  Hello

  you have a problem with the laptop from my friend who drives me crazy. Laptop HP Pavilion G6 1283 SL (Win 7 64-bit), malfunctioning adapter is Atheros AR9285.

  Last night, she confirmed a HP Support Assistant update automatic and just after that, its wireless card has stopped working. LED light is always blue and the map looks like perfectly beautiful and functional - cell "sees", the drivers are up to date, everything is fine. It simply does not connect to the WiFi connection, Red Cross on the wifi icon.

  I tried every possible solution: first of all, any combination of 'reboot - replace the drivers - download drivers', and then abruptly deleting everything about Atheros using ZSoft Uninstaller and reinstall all the drivers fresh and new. Still nothing. Then, I tried to perform a system restore, and any time I choose, laptop was never completed because of a problem of 'missing file' generic. Has opened a whole new chapter, I checked for viruses, malwares and stuff, laptop is now cleaner than ever, still no recovery and again, no Atheros card work (I mean: it works for Win, but it doesn't actually).

  Please do not suggest me some "uninstall - reinstall - select X - enable-reboot" solution because 99.9%, I have already tried. Read almost any topic related to card wifi Atheros or Pavillion G6 questions, here and on the net.

  The only remaining solution is replacement of the card or formatting of the laptop? Needless to say, this is a ridicolous pretty outrageous waste of time (and money, perhaps). She needs her laptop for her job, and for some a matter of update of HP, she loses of fact already two days to solve this problem.

  Thank you

  Problem solved (by myself)!

  Apparently uninstall ZoneAlarm by using a "deep" uninstall program has solved the problem. After awhile, a new wifi Win miniport emerged in wifi card and Device Manager began looking for networks and our network connection to domestic.

• Qualcomm, atheros AR9285 802.11b/g/n wifi adapter problem

  Hi, if I can connect to the internet, but after a bit, I'm disconnected from the network. When I have the Troubleshoot, it indicates that there is a problem with my card. It is not a problem with my network as all other devices work correctly.

  I use Windows 8; my laptop is a Pavilion dv6 - 3284ca; my wifi adapter is qualcomm, atheros AR9285 802.11b/g/n wifi adapt

  Let me know if you need more information.

  You can try a USB wireless adapter. If it works, which will restrict the cause root. If it doesn't, it will restrict the issue to a conclusion. There is not a lot of troubleshooting on the left that you don't want to, so I think that an adapter is a good idea.
