  • How can I make best use of Windows XP wireless connect?

    This may seem Basic, but I want to understand all aspects of the configuration of my PC of course. As long as I connected to the wireless Web, I used a software provided by Netgear, that makes the wireless adapter. When I moved into an apartment, the ISP technology who set up my wireless modem could not get Netgear to "discuss" the modem, so he opted for the default Windows software. I'm not real surprised because Netgear has always been a little bug. However, I know the zip on the Windows login. Is it as simple as right-clicking on the icon in the status bar system and by taking my selection of disable, status, repair, view available wireless networks, change the settings of Windows Firewall or open network connections? Are there additional features? Y at - it online a tutorial on the use of Windows for my wireless Internet connection?

  • Windows 7 wireless connection problem

    I just bought a brand new Alienware m17x and all drivers are up to date... .IM with broadcom wireless network adapter. The strange thing is that last night I was on the internet for several hours without any problem using the wireless, but this morning iwas unable to use my wireless internet access. This has happened several times now. Sometimes it says "not connected - no available connections" and sometimes he says "not connected connections are available" when she says, links, I try to connect to the network, but it says "unable to connect to the network. The only time wherever I was able to connect to wireless internet, was when my computer is automatically connected to my wireless network without me having to select the network and attempt to connect. I read things about windows 7, with a mode of "sleeper" for wireless connections or something, and that can be the cause of it and that it is better to turn off or downgrade to xp. I am really frustrated because I am not able to connect wirelessly and I hope you guys can help me find a solution.

     

    Guide to correctly troubleshoot wireless M17x
    with Dell Wireless 1510/Broadcom card
    by Glzmo

    Since many new Alienware M17x all powerful users, especially those who use Windows 7 as operating system there are various problems with their Wi - Fi connection and post threads asking how their difficulty over and over again, I decided to write this guide to show them how to solve these issues properly Commons. The solutions in this guide were created and designed for 64-bit Windows 7, but they may also work in Windows Vista, although these problems were experienced by users of Windows 7 mainly in the past. It could very well be that the problems start occurring in Vista as well with the new drivers and Windows updates.

    I. may not connect to the wireless network and or see the wireless adapter when the Ethernet cable is disconnected
    If you sometimes or always unable to connect to the wireless network, cannot connect to the wireless network when the Ethernet cable is disconnected, unable to connect to a wireless network unless you restart once to get this work and other weird problems to be unable to connect to a wireless network continue with section II. Otherwise, continue with section II..

    Sleep of a.i. Disable on disconnect device
    Some new Nvidia Ethernet drivers have a function called sleep device to disconnect. This is the culprit. Normally, it should only put the card Ethernet to sleep when the cable is disconnected, but it is buggy and thus kill the wireless connection as well.
    Follow these steps to disable this feature on your Ethernet Nvidia card:

    1. open the Device Manager of Windows by pressing Win + break, and then click on Device Manager on the left side.
    2 double-click network adapters.
    3 double click on NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller (Yes, that's indeed wired Ethernet adapter).
    4 click on the Advanced tab.
    5 select sleep on disconnect device.
    6 set the value to disabled.
    7 click OK and wireless should work again (may require a reboot later, but probably not).

    I.b. install different drivers (older) who do not have the device sleeping on disconnect feature.
    The above does not work or if you are not comfortable with these drivers, follow these steps (if step A.i. was successful, you will not need to follow these steps). Take care to create a system restore point before proceeding:
    1. click the Windows Start button in the taskbar.
    2 click on Control Panel.
    3 click on uninstall a program.
    4 in the list, double-click Nvidia drivers.
    5. Mark Remove only the following.
    6 in the box below, only check the Nvidia Network driver.
    7 click Remove and follow the uninstall instructions.
    8 restart the system, if you are prompted to.
    9 download another (older) driver from Nvidia.
    10 install the old driver.
    11 when asked what drivers you want to install, select only the network driver.
    12 follow the installation instructions and restart your system if prompted.

    II. Low or fluctuating wireless connection speeds
    If you have problems with WiFi low connection speeds (such as rates decline over time, the speeds are much lower than they should be, network lag/stutter in online games, loss of light packets, loss of internet connection as LAN works and other weird things) or speeds of fluctuating wildly without apparent reason wireless connection install the version of the Dell Wireless 5.60.18.8 drivers instead of the standard Broadcom drivers. All older drivers will usually cause the speed of connection under normal. Note, however, that you may need to install the driver manually via Device Manager as the pilot was not released for another laptop and is not officially available to the M17x yet - that's why the installer won't work. Take care to create a system restore point before proceeding.
    Here is a step by step how manually install the driver:

    1. download the drivers Dell Wireless 5.60.18.8.
    2 check out the R29128.exe file using an extraction utility like WinRAR or just run it and quit the installation program.
    3. open the Device Manager of Windows by pressing Win + break, and then click on Device Manager on the left side.
    4 double-click network adapters.
    5 double-click the Broadcom 802.11n network adapter entry.
    6 click on the driver tab.
    7 click the button Update driver .
    8 click Browse my computer for driver software.
    9 click on Let me take form a list of drivers for devices on my computer.
    10 click the disk provided .
    11 click Browse.
    12. select the folder that you extracted the drivers you just downloaded in step 1. in.
    13 select the subfolder DRIVER_US (if you are in the United States), DRIVER_JP (if you are in the Japan) or DRIVER_ROW (if you are in the rest of the world), according to the region you are in.
    14 click on the Open button.
    15 click OK.
    16 select the driver that says Dell Wireless 1510 Wireless-N WLAN Mini-Card of the list (you may have to scroll down to see - it presents itself as second to the last in the list for me).
    17 click on the Next button.
    18 you will get a warning that the driver that you are about to install is not compatible with your hardware. Ignore the warning and proceed with the driver installation.
    19 restart your system if prompted to do so.
    20 your new driver should now be properly installed and the speed of your wireless connection in the order.

    III. If all else fails (or you've just had enough of boredom arising from the Dell Wireless 1510/Broadcom card)
    Replace the Dell Wireless 1510 problem with a card half-mini Intel Ultimate N WiFi Link 5300 A/G/N (use the bluetooth as the third antenna antenna or buy you an additional antenna for this). It works very well with the M17x, has better connection speeds to strips of the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz (this last has speeds really bad on the Broadcom/1510), it has not required to jump through the hoops to make it work properly and much more, it works with standard drivers and Intel maintains their drivers up to date. It is also much more reliable and faster as well, especially on the 5 GHz band, but also on the 2.4 GHz band.

    For more information on the subject of tweaking the settings of your Dell Wireless card, check out the official setting advanced properties: Dell Wireless WLAN Card User Guide.

    I hope that this guide will help you solve your Wi - Fi connection and allow you to enjoy speeds of complete wireless connection on your laptop Alienware M17x.

  • Windows 8 wireless connection problem

    I just bought a new laptop with Windows 8 and half an hour to put on, I lose network connectivity wireless on all devices in my home, new laptop, iphone, ipad, galaxy tablet.  The ipad, the iphone, and the Tablet first in loose connectivity followed by the laptop.  As soon as I turn off the phone followed by the router (BT homehub 1 I think), connectivity is restored on the ipad, iphone and tablet.  When I turn on the laptop back, connection is restored there too but not for long.  I checked the router and all the lights are lit and not flickering.  I ran the Windows diagnosis and this is the result «a network cable is not plugged in correctly or may be broken...» Detected (there is a yellow triangle with an exclamation point in it which I assume means not fixed...)

  • Windows 7 wireless connection problem: unable to connect to my home network

    Hello

    I just got a Dell laptop that is running Windows 7.  However, when I try to connect to my home network it impossible apperantly.  When I select "Troubleshoot Proplems" I get "Troubleshooting cannot identify the problem."

    I also already checked the pit of the Wireless Device Manager device.  It is activated and works perfectly.

    I know that the network is enabled and works because I'm typing this message on my desktop wireless capable of Windows XP.  In addition, my roommate is able to connect to the router and 'surf' the internet on their laptops.

    Therefore, I must assume that this problem is due to something in Windows 7.

    Hello Geoffrey.

    Have you tried to change the wireless channel that your router is running at? There may be interference that could prevent the internet connection:

    Take a look at step 6 in this article that give more details about it:

    If you need assistance to change the settings of the specific router, you will need to contact your router manufacturer or your internet service provider.

  • Pavilion dv7-7205tx envy windows 8 wireless connectivity

    A first tried the sticky post and when trying to update the drivers available via this link, windows 8 still sees the current drivers as the most up-to-date.

    There is no info on this laptop on HP site so I can't update all the drivers myself right now, so if someone can tell me the right drivers who can fix a problem with the Atheros QCA9565 wireless I would appreciate it.

    Using Windows 8, fine internet connection via ethernet to Dlink Di526 (oldschool Yes..)

    2 other pc Windows 7 have thin connection to the wireless router

    Phone selects picks up wireless and connects very well

    Try wireless on HP and it detects the network but can connect only with limited connectivity, no internet.

    Driver for Atheros is 10.0.0.77 dated dated 15/08/2012, and I tried the 10.0.0.212 in date driver dated 28/09/2012 with the same result.

    I think that its a problem with the Atheros with Windows 8 compatibility.

    Anyone else has a similar problem?

    Have you tried the driver found here to your support portal for portable computers on the web page of drivers and applications?

    The driver is for Windows 8 (32 & 64-bit)

  • Unable to connect to wireless networks more. ("Windows could not connect to (SSID)")

    Hello!

    Something very strange is happening with my laptop (dv6-3060ee). Up to this day at noon, everything worked well, including the wireless network. So, I set my computer to Hibernate and came to the House of my parents. As I turn it on and try to connect to the wireless here, I can't. I get this error "Windows could not connect to (name of the network).

    I'm on W7 Home Premium 64-bit and the card wireless in an Atheros 9285 b/g/n (model number can be a problem, I have it does not properly check).

    Things to consider:

    -I don't know that this is not a router problem or hardware WiFi card because:

    1. I can connect to the router and get internet access on my phone and with the other computer normally.

    2. on the laptop, I can not connect to the network without wire inside W7, BUT with HP QuickWeb (this system of Opertaing before loading windows), I can normally connect to the network and access to internet.

    -Have you ever tried, without success:

    1 reinstall the driver for the wireless card / Unistalling the driver and install it again

    2. change the encryption on the router. (Even with no encryption I can't connect)

    3. of course, restarting the computer, turn off/on of the network card, reset the router

    So, I'm sure it's a problem with Windows. I did some research here and in other places and other people seem to have the same problem, but I couldn't find any solution.

    I didn't install any software today which could cause conflicts.

    So, can someone help me, please?

    Thank you

    Thank you for your help, but I'd already sorted.

    The problem was really the driver, an update had been installed by the HP update program and it makes the device stop working. This problematic driver was March, I can't remember the version number.

    I went to the Device Manager and pressed on "Roll Back Driver". Windows restored to an October/2009 driver, 8.0.0.238 version number, and now it works as it should.
