The low signal strength with Ralink RT5390 on HP Dv6

• The low signal strength WET610N

  My WET610N is on a 5 GHz wireless network and is located about 30 feet from my router (Netgear C3700) with a line of direct sight.  The 5 GHz network uses channel 11 operation up to 145Mbs.  The WET610N shows a signal strength of 28%.  My laptop wireless, running "WiFi channel Scanner" is positioned near the WET610N and shows the signal strength 85% on the same 5 GHz network.

  A Speedtest.net test on the laptop computer watch ~ 60Mbs speeds on a connection from Time Warner ISP download 100Mbs.  The WET610N, running the same test of Speedtest.net shows only the 5Gbs of download speeds.

  The intensity of the signal would be the cause for the lower results of speedtest?  Wireless Setup is not that many configuration options.  Which parameters can affect the intensity of the WET610N signal?

  BTW, I tried the same tests on the network wireless 2.4 GHz, with similar results.

  OK, I just made a major discovery, but I'm still not sure on how to correct what I discovered.

  On a whim, I unplugged my desktop computer, which is a system 8.1 of Windows, the WET610N and plugged my laptop, which is still under Windows 7.  When I ran the test, Speedtest.net, my laptop registered 97Mbps download speeds!

  Thus, it seems that the WET610N works beautifully and it's something on my desktop does not work properly.  I recently upgraded to the Windows 7 Desktop to Windows 8.1, and I remember very well that the network provided quickly enough before the upgrade.  Maybe it's the network on Windows 8.1 driver.

  Anyway, I guess I should mark this issue as resolved, since this is obviously not a problem with the WET610N.  If anyone has any advice about network speed using Windows 8.1, your answer would be approciated.

• Latitude C640 with 1470 mini pci wifi has very low signal strength

  I just installed 1470 broadcom mini pci card with the 4.10.40.0 (from decompression R115321.exe) on a Dell Latitude C640 driver version.

  The card sees the network and connects, but I must be withinn 5 feet from the router, and even in this case the signal is 'Very low' (an or maybe 2 bars). I can communicate with various other wireless cards on other laptops with the full signal strength during the major part of the House.

  Why the intensity of the signal would be so bad?

  Is the 1470 is not very sensitive? the driver is bad for my setup? is there an INCOMPATIBILITY between the 1470 and the DLink DI-524 router? Is this an indication that the antenna on my wifi card is damaged? (I got it on ebay)

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you.

• The WiFi function of the speed signal strength

  Several cities around the world to offer free WIFI services.  For example, Sunnyvale, California and Jerusalem (Israel), are two cities that are completely compatible WIFI.  WIFI also became ubiquitous regularly in several small towns and suburbs; but, alas, not yet in rural remote.  With the exception of safety and security, how the following services would compare (all things being equal) with each other in terms of web-surfing faster and more efficient?

  WIFI (Protocol N) with very good (four of the five green bars) resistance and quality of the Signal and 18 MB/s speed.
  WIFI (Protocol N) with good (three of the five green bars) quality & strength of the Signal and to 36 Mbps speed.
  WIFI (Protocol N) with fair (two of the five green bars) quality & strength of the Signal and 54 Mbps speed.
  Yet once, whose one of the three above strength & Signal quality and speed combinations would be the best for surfing the Internet and also watch videos on YouTube?  In general, which of the two is more important to speed or Signal strength/quality?
  Thank you very much
  Joe.

  The 36 Mbps would be the best and the fastest.  Low signal strength will cause too many retransmissions of data occur, so the effective speed would be reduced. The 36 Mbps with good signal strenght has speed and signal strength that few or no packets are lost so easily outperforming the 18 Mbps connection.

  Something in that you have no account is this interference from nearby devices or people walking past a table where your laptop is can sometimes slow down thigs.

• Low signal strength, high-end hardware

  My old adapter dead netgear recently. It has just stopped working. It worked fine until now, if a little slow, but he never gave me peaks of lag or sudden failures. I got a new Linksys adapter and went with the G because my old netgear adapter is a G. I noticed the signal strength is low, and when I played games online I was sometimes a hint of lag. I decided it might be time to update my router as well. So, I bought a N of Linksys wireless router. No change, still a power low signal and occasional spikes of lag. So I traded my linksys for Linksys Wireless-N router adapter. Higher speeds, but always a low signal strength. My router is down hard connected to a cable modem. That's about 30 feet of the card, with a couple of walls between the two. Should there be any reason why will not improve my signal strength, and I continue to experience spikes obstructive gal? I'd switch Netgear, because I never had this problem before trying to Linksys? Some advice, please.

  Not even a Word. Thanks for making my decision, Linksys.

• WRT610N new firmware - capped at 150 Mbps with the excellent signal strength?

  I've just updated to firmware 1.00.02.10, had no problem to upgrade.  I have reset the router default settings after update (via the user interface, not via the button on the back) and even he restarted for good measure.  It is covering the same way I got it before the upgrade, but my 5 GHz channel set up to 150 Mbit/s for some reason any.  I am less than 5 feet between the router and am fluctuating between excellent and very good signal strength.

  Actually, the fact that it is even fluctuating force signal very good this distance is weird also, but I am especially interested in the 150 Mbps.

  Any thoughts?

  Do not take account of this issue, I knew that I should have tried this before posting here...

  I restarted my computer, and it is now pulling between 270 and 300 Mbps.

• BlackBerry Z10 Z10 and the carrier Signal strength

  I don't know if this is related to the question of appeals Z10 has dropped, but I noticed that my carrier signal strength jumps from full bars to (say) 2 shelves for the big X red for no reason my phone is just sitting there.

  This may be related, but I also calls recently, and my quality of phone (although normally I would say great) was virtually zero as if I had to drive into a tunnel (you know, that jerky digitized sound).  Actually, I was sitting in front of one of my rounds of carriers.

  I would appreciate ideas... I'm on OS 10.1.0.1720 official on Telus.

  I have the same problem on Rogers and my father done to MTS. We are in Manitoba. Very strange how it fluctuates constantly. Found in Toronto it was stable, and the LTE with Rogers.

• HP Pavilion laptop g6 with Ralink RT5390 & wifi does not work when EA2700 is in mode n only 2.4 Ghz

  
  

  Thanks for a response. However my problem was that the rt5390 of Ralink just wouldn't connect when the only n mode is used on the EA2700. I have another tip offering find the latest compatible ralink driver who turned out be 5.0.37.0 for a newer model of hp laptop. Install this instantly solved the problem.

  I think, with all the layoffs at HP, they no longer update their pages of driver for out of warranty 2 years, computers with the latest drivers. That came as a total surprise. I should have better.

• RALink RT5390 wireless adapter does not work

  My g6 pavilion laptop wifi adapter was not properly work recently. my internet router and networking are works well as it should, but whenever I restart my laptop, repeat me that there is no link and no other wifi networks when there are clearly other networks because of my neighbors.

  I tried a system restore to solve the problem, but it has no effect and my norton affects the restoration of the system to disable the antivirus.

  I'm stuck on ideas to solve this problem and I don't know much about networking and internet stuff, so I'm pretty powerless here

  Here is a link to my features of laptops if necessary:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03136241

  These ralink adapters are simple ol ' sh * t. I don't know if it will be a complete solution for you, but I was pulling with my network card for months and this has proved to be the most effective for my computer. I have a HP Envy luck to be equipped with a Ralink RT3290, Windows 8.

  so...

  Out of the box, my computer was working fine and it connected to the network OK. As soon as I moved further away from the router, I known constant dropouts, and the connection always folds between the low signal strength, to completely disconnect the router, where I had to re - connect manually there. This question really frustrating. I use my computer on the top level of my house, and the router is in the basement. If I was getting sick of this fast. Update driver after update driver, no luck. After trying everything under the Sun, I decided I would bite the bullet and I tried something a little bit Orthodox...

  I just uninstalled the driver for my computer. Yes, really. When a component on your computer a driver is stripped, Windows software has a few drivers that will install by default for your material so that it can remain functional on your computer. So, once remove the driver ralink on my computer, windows installed sound driver by default for my network card and... Voila! My connection problems are virtually non-existent at this point. The material is not always the best, but at least I can surf the net in my room without my connection affected by constant stalling.

  Now, other that the light on the button stuck wireless with an orange glow and list my NIC as #10 Device Manager, I always use this driver with minimum questions. Occasionally, he'll forget the connection once I wake the laptop from sleep, but this issue has been much worse with the ralink drivers than without.

  If you are aware of the risk (what is low, to be realistic, this can always be undone and you can always reinstall drivers ralink so that deosn proved to be an effective solution), I will explain in detail how I managed to do.

  (1) open Device Manager (right click the lower left corner in windows 8 and a shortcut appears in the drop-down below)

  (2) find network adapters and display its contents

  (3) make a right click on your wireless network adapter (should be something similar to "Ralink RT5390 802.11b/g/n... ") and click on"Uninstall"in the menu drop-down

  (4) a popup should appear and you should be given the possibility to uninstall or cancel it. Make sure you check "suppression software driver for this device" until you go forward, or Windows re - install the ralink driver.

  -Search for new hardware if your network card is not detected after you have uninstalled it. Your card should appear as "802.11n Wireless LAN card"

  -If you have an installer driver ralink that is newer or equal to the driver that is already installed, you can run the Setup program to remove any driver software remains which is usually overlooked by the device during the uninstallation Manager there from your computer

  -As an option, you can check potential driver leftover files C:\Windows\System32\Drivers. It is important to search for remains that Device Manager / ralink Installer may have missed because it can potentially conflict with the replacement of windows WLAN driver. pilots should have a short name for your adapter (e.g. rt3298.sys); they shouldn't be hard to find. Be careful as well; IT IS WISE TO ALWAYS SAVE no matter WHAT DRIVER SOFTWARE, YOU CAN REMOVE in CASE YOU MAKE a MISTAKE.

  (5) re - enter your information network and you should be good to go!

  I hope that it is of no help to you. People who know nothing about what they will tell you to install the latest driver and yatta yatta yatta this way, because it does not work I had to take the liberty to try to find a solution for these adapters cursed myself. I hope this helps a bit your question!

• Low House Wireless Signal strength

  I am now able to see my home wireless network, but unable to connect! I'm only on the 6% signal strength when I'm right next to him. I don't understand why the signal is so weak when I used this home network for 3 years with no aging. I'm sure that it is linked to all other issues I had with... I must not be implemented this correction properly... any suggestions?

  Thank you

  Get it fixed... back up when I didn't have connections installed to control my network connections and solved the problem using Windows software and my wireless modem.

  Thank you

• P70 Pro SAT - signal strength dropped suddenly constantly

  I recently bought the Satellite P70 Pro (2 weeks ago). It has Intel Pro Wireless 2200BG adapter. During the first week, I was able to detect approximately 6 wireless LANs near my apartment and my own WLAN has always been the power of the signal full (I use a Belkin Wireless Access Point).

  I updated my Windows XP with updates of recommended security and after reboot, my laptop only barely detect my WLAN with very low signal strength at best, and I can't see all other WLANS that I used to work with the very good signal strength.

  I do not understand why this has happened - I tried tto updated drivers Intel cards with the latest version (9.0.3.9) and also to restore my system to the date I bought it (IE restore to basically its state before buying). None of these actions has changed the fact that he basically can't pick up my WLAN more unless I'm ontop of it.

  I think return the laptop and get the card replaced Intel because it seems defective.

  If anyone has any ideas they would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you very much
  Peter.

  Hello

  I've read many users with different laptops, but with the same WiFi card have similar problems. Unfortunately have no explanation. I know that you can use the Agere or Toshiba WLAN card.

  In my opinion, this card doesn't work properly with some access points or there is a problem with communication between them. I have the same card (Satellite M40) and WLAN Netgear access point. Since the first day, it works perfectly and without any update driver.

  If you have time here to edge wireless you can find a lot of interesting topics on the similar theme.

  Good luck!
