T61 Wireless 4965AGN or 5300AGN

Hi, I just bought a refurbished CD2 T61 7663, which does not include a WiFi card. After some research, I found Intel 4965 AGN and Intel 5300 AGN are almost the same price, about $34 at Amazon. Should what card I buy? Will be compatible with T61 to 5300 AGN? Thanks for the suggestions!

Another question, I installed Windows Server 2008 in the T61, which runs great and smooth. The only problem is that it takes more than 4 minutes to start. I know that Windows Server 2008 cancelled the Readyboost and Readydrive to Vista, but I wonder if there is any way I can change or add patches to enable these 2 features, so that I can make my decision to order a turbo memory to boost the speed of the system.

the 5300AGN card won't work in your T61.

Server 2008 should not take four minutes to boot any system it's on.   you miss a good driver or a piece of software installed causing a slowdown.   say the event viewer?

SuperFetch must be enabled.   the instructions are available here.   personally, I only use it for the neutralization of him is part of the reason why 2008 is faster than vista.   but I'm one of the rare few who use 2008 for what it was designed to do.

  • Not detected in T61 wireless network card

    Hello

    I have a T61 (7663-CTO WYG-7663)

    There's a MM2 Intel wireless 4965AGN adapter installed in it.

    Windows 7 is installed, but the Device Manager does not show me any wireless, only the wired network adapter network adapter.

    I tried to change the map wireless with a wireless G pci-e card but still no device.

    Any ideas on what could be the problem?

    Have you checked the BIOS on the T61?

    If it came with a stock of operation of Windows XP (that is to say, it's OLD), it may require a BIOS upgrade.

    Inside the BIOS, I think it's in the Config-->--> internal wireless network.

    That's assuming that it has been installed correctly.

    Guide your T61 for details, I guess.

  • T61 Wireless does not not after installing updates of wireless and electric management

    Few days back I have updated my T61 (via ThinkVantage - update my system) and there was 2 updates related to:

    (1) wireless

    (2) power management.

    Since the update, my wireless is not working. I tried to uninstall and install the wireless driver. I have created a new home network, but nothing helped. Radio off and on. Ethernet connection works fine

    Wireless adapter is: Wifilink Intel 4965AGN

    OS is Win XP with SP3

    Was wondering if anyone else has experienced similar problem.

    Thank you

    Harish

    Thank you all for the responses.

    After trying various combinations, below think fixed my problem

    1. on my DLink router, change the level of security WPA2 only (previously the WPA2-PSK)

    2. then I changed the setting wireless on my T61 such that Windows would be Manager wireless

    It seems that the question was a tug of war between Lenovo and Windows tries to manage wireless.

    Its been 8 hours now and I do not see the symptoms so far.

    Thanks again.

  • T61 wireless hardware or software failure?

    When I finally used (in September), my wireless on this old T61 (6459-CTO) worked perfectly, but tonight I can't even view available networks. I know that my local network wi - fi doesn't work because the other devices can connect, but cannot see it or other networks of neighbourhood on this ThinkPad notebook. Suits the list of networks available in that it displays a message «Windows cannot configure this wireless...» "I am running Windows XP SP3, the machine is vintage 2008, ipconfig/all said the wireless card is a 11 a/b/g Wireless LAN Mini PCI Express Adapter, Device Manager shows the device works correctly, hardware and software-defined radio (ThinkVantage) switches are on, and the wi - fi on the front panel led is bright and blinking occasionally. There were a few Microsoft Updates since wi - fi last worked, but nothing has changed to my knowledge. How can I determine if it is a software or a hardware problem? Thanks in advance - JCW2

    Download and burn a 'live' DVD in Linux, like mint and boot from it.

    If you are able to connect wireless here, the question is within Windows.

    If this is not the case, there is a problem with the hardware somewhere.

  • Pilot of the T61 wireless adapter

    My T61 adapater is the Intel Pro/Wireless 3945ABG. the driver is Version 11.1.1.11 [probably the same driver as the day I bought it]. I recently received a message from ThinkVantage saying that it could not connect to a wireless network and I might "need to configure your system to take in charge the authentication method that is used." The network uses WPA2 and I noticed in the settings of the profile ThinkVantage wireless WPA2 is not one of the options in "type of wireless security." I saw a previous poster is facing a similar problem but do not understand how they resolved. It would be logical for me to update the driver for the 3945ABG? For a particular version? Being then allow the use of WPA2? Any help would be appreciated. PS - The T61 running on Windows XP Professional; SP3.

    Hello

    It's always a good idea to use the latest drivers. A simple method for updating your wireless driver is to use ThinkVantage System Update. While you're there, you can update ThinkVantage AccessConnections as well. I don't know which version of AccessConnections you are using, what I write here applies to version 5.90 for Vista.

    WPA2 is not an option in 'wireless security type' in AccessConnections. To use WPA2-AES, you choose WPA - PSK in 'wireless security type' in AccessConnections. Then click on the button located below this setting. As I have the German version of dial-up connections on my computer, I don't know how this button is marked in English, it might be called "Properties". To "Access Point Authentication", you select WPA2-PSK. In the drop-down field slot, which could be labelled "encryption method", you choose "AES". WPA2-AES is working on a T61, which has the Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG.

  • T61 wireless connectivity problem

    I have a laptop T61 and the problem is that wireless connectivity decreases after every 2 minutes. This happens when the laptop is running on battery and power cable is not connected to the laptop. Connectivity goes down for 5 seconds and automatically resumes.

    In the hardware system menu Device Manager in the Control Panel, make a right click on the wifi adapter, select properties and there should be a tab where you can specify if the device can be turned off to save energy. Clear the check box turn off the device to save power. The device then remains on even when the computer is in stanby so it will stop your battery more quickly.

  • T61 Wireless Network Configuration

    Hi I'm trying to set up a wireless network small office at home. I created a profile on the other two machines with XP pro. I have a cable router and all can connect through it when I try to create a network home with logins that he seems to think that I want to connect to a different router in a different place, while I use my router to create network wireless home office. I'm better off the coast of uninstallation of access connecitons. It seems that he manages this difficult work or can someone point me in the right direction. I loooked at Lenovo's article on it, but their images of their way to access connections is different from my dial-up connection. I have updated and update regulaily with system update. Advice and prayers... Please... Don't tak the last comment as confirmation that I believe in God or and beyond...

    Hi flambo,.

    I would recommend just UN-installing of logins. You can switch between networks without thread too easily (IMHO) with the standard tools of Windows networking.

    See you soon,.

  • Satellite P300-23F-mini-PCI Wireless card Replace?

    Question: would it be possible to replace the card of wireless mini-PCI Intel 5100AGN with version 4965AGN or 5300AGN?

    The thing is, recently I bought the Satellite P300-23F. Great laptop. Apart from one thing. I use the Intel 5100AGN wireless. Type of damage, the rest of the components used to build this laptop are high-end. I would have liked to see the 5300AGN of even the old 4965AGN adapter instead. These are both a bit more expensive, but still on the market for the price difference is a simple slice of $20. The 5100AGN TX is only 150 Mbit, which is half as fast as the two other Intel wireless modules. In general, a lot of people seem to have problems with the 5100AGN, seems to be a troublesome product altogether.

    Performance of the real world of the 5100AGN on a Linksys WRT54G is around 15 Mbps (1, 8 MB/s). My other computer laptop, equipped with a 4965AGN will be double that in the same circumstances. Tried all the drivers I could find, but the above values are the best I can get.

    Hello

    I think that this should be possible, but you must use Mini-PCI cards.

  • Question of fluctuating speed video WRT320N

    I have read a lot of posts on this forum and I have maybe there's no help for it, but I thought I'd try.  Please read them all, as I have tried several things found on this forum.

    I have a WRT320N I bought several months ago.  I seem to have problems especially when you try to use the same videoconferencing as Skype, Yahoo or MSN.

    When I'm on the 'wired' computer on my network, all right.  On my laptop, these programs do not work wll at all.  My laptop has a b/g/n wireless capability.

    Although the quality of the signal is always excellent, I can watch the speed fluctuates anywhere from 72-144 Mbps.  144 is on it.

    I have my setup of router to mixed 2 .4GHz, 20 MHz of bandwidth, with WPA2-Personal Security.  I tried almost every channel there is.

    I tried WPA secruity and my speed dropped to 54Mbps... and remained strong thus... no fluctuation at all.  However, I got the same performance with above programs.

    I also, as we see displayed a million times on this site, changed the tag to 75 interval and the thresholds of Fragmentation and RTS to 2304.

    Nothing seems to change the performance of the router.  Currently, I'm writing this, I am less than 20 feet from the router and look the speed change regularly... earlier it is passed to 144 Mbps 65 less than a second, then slowly back up, then down again...

    NOTE: I have flashed the Firmware to V1.0.03 build 010 as a month when working on this issue, and who was the latest firmware then.

    (3) wireless 4965AGN adapter is known to operate at only 54 Mbps with WEP or WPA with TKIP.  So you are right, it seems that you should not use WPA2 (WPA with AES =).   See this URL for more info on the 4965AGN:

    http://www.Intel.com/support/wireless/WLAN/4965AGN/sb/CS-025643.htm

    Most of the phones '5 GHz' will not interfere with the band "5 GHz" to your router, because usually, they use different bands in the 5 GHz range.   Some 5 GHz phones also use the 2.4 GHz band, and which usually does not interfere with your router.  So, try to unplug the phone and see if that solves your problem.  Microwave ovens only seem to cause problems when they are turned on, so it is usually obvious what the cause of your problem.

    To see this channel using your neighbors, to highlight their SSID, and then select "Properties".  Sometimes, there is a button for this.  Sometimes he must right click on the SSID, then select "Properties".  Sometimes you have to doubleclick the SSID and actually connect.    In some cases, software wireless adapter does not display an info channel.  After you find that your neighbors using, if possible, try to stay + 5 or - 5 channels of your more powerful neighbors.  If you can not say this channel using your neighbors, then simply try channels 1, 6 or 11 and see what works best.

    Also try to again set the "width" to "large", '40 MHz' or 'Auto '.  With this, remove your standard and wide strips at least 2 channels for example, regularly try wide ring on 9 / 11.

    I hope this helps.

  • Satellite P100-429: Intel Wireless Wifi Link 4965agn card is not compatible?

    Hey guys

    I have a Satellite P100-429 with a 3965abg to intel, I have a few router purchased months ago Netgear wnr834b n project, then think, it is high time, I upgraded my internal adapter.

    I wanted to know if the Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN adapter would fit that is a right with the 3965 swap, as it says it's connection is Mini PCIe card * and I have no idea if it would fit?

    Hello

    Yes, she should go, because the W-LAN-mini-card slot is a PCI-Express, so you'll just have to swap the cards. But be careful with the antenna connections, if you bend them too so they break very quickly and then there is NO WAY back and you will pay for the exchange of
    the whole cover, where are the antennas of screen.

    Best is to contact a local service partner if they exchanged, you don t therefore the risk for the guarantee void if you do something 'not very good' on your machine. :)

    I wiped Vista earlier in the day, but can't for the life of get me the able to be detected by XP wireless card! I freshly installed it twice now and it becomes very frustrating. I installed Access Connections and hotkey as indicates it the Lenovo Web site. Then I installed this driver and absolutely nothing does not appear in Device Manager or my network places.

  • Intel 4965agn wireless wrong with vista Home premium sp2

    recently I had to reinstall vista (clean install of 2007 system disk) due to an unknown problem that caused the ms does not recognize my installation as "authentic." The system is updated after a week of daily updates. before this problem my wireless connection worked continuously for years without problems. I remember having some problem with it before sp1, but certainly no problems since sp2. Since the reinstallation, I was not able to get the wireless to work. Device Manager indicates Intel wireless wifi link 4965agn works fine, but the diagnostics windows network says "intel...» 4965AGN"knows driver or hardware related issues. I tried updating to the latest driver for vista (32 bit) intel (13.2.1.5) and the issue has not changed. I have a gateway with processor nx860xl intel core2 t7200 cpu and 2 GB ram.

    Does anyone know a solution to this problem? How do I can diagnose to refine the cause to the driver or hardware or system settings or registry errors, etc.? Is there another driver who would be better suited or I'd better go back to XP or forward for win7? I have never had to reinstall older XP on my laptop. It was the 3rd or 4th reinstallation of Vista (although the last one was a good two years ago). I just want to get the wireless working again, so I must not be attached to my router for internet, etc.. Thanks for any help or suggestion.

    Hello

    Connect you to the support page of Intel card download the latest Intel drivers and update any drivers you have now.

    After installation, make sure that the Intel Wireless utility is not running in the background. Turn it off and get out of the startup folder.

    In general

    There is an inherent Catch22 to attempt to repair a computer wireless through wireless. Given that the without wire is not connected to the source, there is no interaction between the wireless source and the Wireless Client and no frame of reference to find what works and what does not.

    As a first step, I will temporarily move the computer to a place close to the wireless router and plug with a wire.

    When he works with a wire, switch Off the Wireless Security in the router, disconnect the wire and try to make wireless work. This must be done when the computer is always close to the wireless router to compensate for the weak, and or blocked the signal that could be part of the problem in the new suite spot work.

    In the computer itself.

    Most laptops have a physical switch for the wireless card. Read the manual of the computer and make sure that the wireless adapter is on.

    Check the Device Manager for the wireless card valid entry.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_dm.jpg

    If there is no valid entry, remove any entry from fake and re - install the drivers for the wireless card.

    Check network connections to make sure that you have a network icon/entry wireless connection, and that the properties of the icon (right-click on the icon) are correctly configured with the TCP/IPv4 protocol in the properties of network connections.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_connection_tcp.jpg

    Make sure that if there is Wireless Utility a utility vendor is not running with the native Windows wireless utility.

    Make sure you firewall No. preventing / blocks wireless components to join the network.

    Above everything is OK and it connects to the wireless router. Log in from any computer which is, or can be connected to the router with a wire wireless, disable wireless security, make sure that the wireless streaming is enabled and try to connect with no. wireless security.

    When the work turns on the Wireless security.

    Note * people sometimes make mistakes in writing and retype the password for security.

    Another way is to copy in the menu of the router and then paste it when asked of the wireless card.
