Actiontec MI424-WR Version E wireless quit working

Over the last 2 days my home WIFI has stopped working. I can connect to the internet via an Ethernet cord but not wireless. I have tried all recommended procedures without success. How can I tell if my Hardware is broken or if it is something different.?

Can you see other wireless networks that are in range, like your neighbors and just not your own? Or can you not see any wireless networks at all. And you said you tried all procedures, does that mean you changed the wireless channel, and did you try all three (1,6,11)

U350. Literally overnight...Battery won't charge and wireless quits working.

I've had my Ideapad U350 since June of 2010 and had absolutely zero problems with it until now.
Up til now, I haven't been experiencing shortened battery life or internet problems...now, out of the blue, the battery doesn't charge and the wireless won't come on.
I keep my system up to date and my anti-virus current.
When plugged in, the computer turns on. The battery light beneath the keyboard flashes orange constantly. Mousing over the battery icon on the taskbar, the popup indicates that the system is plugged in. The battery is at 0% and not charging.
The light for the wireless does not come on at all regardless of the position of the switch on the side or any software settings that I've tinkered with.
I've gone to network connections and right-clicked the wireless...disabled it, re-enabled it...tried to diagnose the problem, windows just says that the card needs to be turned on.
I've un-installed and re-installed the device drivers from the device manager, no go.
On a whim, I backed up all of my data and used the one-touch system restore to go back to factory settings. No dice.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I've got the wireless up and running.
At some point in the past, I had disabled the Lenovo software that put that annoying display in the lower right corner every time you adjusted brightness or volume or what not...
Having just reset my computer to factory settins (which confuses me as to why it wouldn't just WORK...it worked when I got it..) the software is once again up and running and I noticed that every time I flipped the switch on the side, the indicator would pop up in the lower right corner of my screen for wireless on/off...but the light near the touchpad still wasn't coming on.
So I hit fucntion F5. The Lenovo Wireless Device settings popped up and I turned it on from there. Voila.
Ok, one problem down.
Battery is still an issue.
I Disabled the ACPI-Colmpiant Control Method as instructed on the other thread, let the computer reboot...re-enabled it. Nothing.
Tried another reboot. Disabled, waited a few minutes. Re-enabled.
When I mouse over the icon on the corner it still says the battery is at 0% and the computer is plugged in but not charging.
I've read a number of complaints about the batteries failing around the 1 year mark in these laptops...but this one was showing NO signs of trouble until it all of a sudden quit charging and it's only been used for about 7 months..and even then, not heavily used.
Any other ideas?

Wireless Quit Working on HP Officejet Pro 8600 - N911g

Cannot re-establish wireless connection. When I go to the screen that lists the id's for the various wireless routers, the screen goes blank except for a code about 8 characters or longer that starts (I believe) with B849. The code is visible for less than a second. The sceen bkanks out that message and displays the instruction to stop and then start the printer while lights that border the display beging to blink.

Hey REFLaherty,
It sounds like the printer is having an issue with connecting to the internal wireless card. I would advise performing a factory reset on this printer, then trying to connect to the network again. I have the steps to perform this type of reset and will send this information to you in a private message here on the forums. Please check your inbox messages.
Before performing these steps, please read Bob_Headrick's thread on printer resets found here.

My Windows XP 32bit Wireless quit working on my 2008 iMac, works great in Apple mode.

Hello all,
My 2008 iMac in Windows XP 32bit mode (for work programs) stopped working. The crazy thing is that its AWESOME in Apple mode, but in Windows mode, it fails totally. I cant communicate with the modem. I have tried reloading the drivers for the Broadcom from the OSX CD/Bootcamp Drivers, but that did nothing.
Any idea how to fix this?
Please help me. I have spent a week on this, and its been malfunctioning for several months now. I must get it working right.

A couple of things, first there is a Boot Camp forum so if you want support I'd think that would be the best venue.
As you have discovered Boot Camp only supports Windows 7 on the current machines so you are in a box if you must run on Boot Camp. However instead of using Boot Camp you can use virtualization software such as Parallels or VMWare Fusion which perform very well. The are many advantages of virtualization one primary one is you can still run XP. Others include being able to run MS Windows within OS X so you can use both OS's simultaneously. The only downside to virtualization is if you run graphics intensive apps (3D Game, CAD/CAM, 3D rendering) then performance will not be as good as with Boot Camp. However for almost all other apps performance is really good and most cases users don't complain.
While it will cost a few dollars (I believe about $79) virtualization is a very solid alternative.

Time Capsule--Wireless suddenly quit working

My Time Capsule had always worked perfectly, but suddenly my wireless access from any device has quit working. My DSL is working fine, and the router and backup portions of the TC seem to be working. I tried a hard reset, updating to the latest version of Airport Utility and Firmware, and it still doesn't work. My laptop sees the network, but when I type in the password and try to connect, I get a connection time out.
Is there anything else to try, or do I assume it's broken?

Do a factory reset.. if the TC still will not pass IP addresses it is indeed faulty.. I get the idea it has swapped modes for some unknown reason. Anyway give it a try.. no luck and Apple will replace it.

Wireless (ndiswrapper) quit working, no errors

I recently put Arch Linux on my laptop, installed the cvs version of ndiswrapper and setup my Broadcom (ick) wireless (using the stock kernel 2.6 ide). Everything worked fine so I updated my packages with pacman and made a custom kernel (2.6.11). I then recompiled ndiswrapper after reboot and everything went fine as far as reconfiguration goes. When I loaded the module my wireless light came on briefly and then turned off, however dmesg and iwconfig showed everything to be operational without any errors noted. When I tried to set the essid with iwconfig the output showed it was ignored (keeyping it set to off/any). iwlist wlan0 scan shows no results.
I tried reverting back to the stock kernel and recompiling ndiswrapper but still got the same results. I assume this is a package I upgraded that may be causing this? I tried re-installing wireless_tools and nothing changed (the latest is what comes with Arch .07 anyway).
Any ideas? I'm stumped, thanks for any help.

Yes.. ndiswrapper and the rt2750 driver from http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/ quit working. The later crashing the kernel.
I've tried on both the stock arch kernel, and a custom 2.6.12.3.
Again, the wireless drivers were working correctly *before* .. and after a pacman -Syu and restart, they stopped (leading me to believe some package altered something critical). I've also tested against 4K and 8K kernel stack sizes.

My Bluetooth USB wireless transmitter for my portable speakers has quit working. Preferences says, "The selected device has no output controls", it used to work just fine. Can anybody help?

My Bluetooth USB wireless transmitter for my portable BT speakers has quit working. Preferences says, "The selected device has no output controls", it used to work just fine. The internal and a pair of wired external speakers work fine. Can anybody help?

Just tested something and it worked.
If I put the headphones all the way in, the mac recognizes it as a digital output.
But if i don't put it all the way in, it recognizes it as headphones and works perfectly.
It's probably this crappy headphones.
If anyone has the same problem, try this out.

When I installe Firefox version 4 my finger print scanner quit working. Any fixes for this?

I downloaded and installed Fire Fox 4.0 a few weeks ago. As soon as I downloaded the new software, my finger print scanner quit working. The scanner light that normally appears when ever there is a request for entering a user name or password no longer turned on and the scanner was no longer functional. I removed the new Fire Fox version and re-installed version 3.6.17. My finger print scanner is now working again.

Nano quit working after update to version 1.2

Brand new nano quit working after update to version 1.2 It worked fine before. My computer see usb storage device but doesn't recognise ipod. ipod updater that worked to let me update doesnt regonise nano either. I returned to store where I bought it, got a new one, brought it home, ran updater again now it the new one is doing the same thing. What gives? I have never had a problem in the past with updater. Is there any way to take it back to version 1.1 since 1.2 doesn't work?

This fix came from Caspar (Thank you SOOO much!). It took me 10 minutes to do this and now my beloved ipod nano is back! Hopefully this will help some of you:
Original Problem: Updated iTunes(6.0.5) and iPod nano (1.2). After the update, iTunes would not recognize my iPod and therefore would not let me remove the iPod from my computer, which seems to be the problem most people are having.
The Fix:
*uninstall iTunes, iPod, and any updates (make sure anything related to these two programs are not on your computer)
*Open Control Panel
*Click the "switch to classic view" link, if
necessary
*Double click "administrative tools"
*Double click "computer management"
*Under "storage" click on "disk management"
*Find your iPod's listing
*Right-click on it and click "format"
*Select "FAT32" and start the format
*After reformatting, remove iPod from computer
*Download iTunes directly from the Apple website (I didn't restart my computer at the prompt)
*Download 6/28/06 update for iPod (do NOT plug iPod in before doing this!)
*Open update for iPod and wait until prompt to plug iPod in (do not plug in early)
*Wait for the update....and there ya have it!!
Hopefully this will help some people, as I have spent the past 2 weeks doing the 5R's thing. After completing the steps above, I haven't had a problem with my iPod..and now my Nike+ works!! Thanks again, Caspar...you're a genius!!
p.s. if this helps, please repost this message to others who have the same problem as we do...

App quit working, new version not compatible, am I out of luck?

I have a Touch, 1st gen. One of the apps quit working correctly. I followed troubleshooting and ended up having to delete it from iTunes. But only then did I find out that the newest version is only compatible with iOS 4, which mine can't be updated to. Am I just out of luck for being able to reacquire this app?

If you have not emptied your Windows Recycle bin (or your Mac Trash can) you should be able to recover your deleted file for the older version of the app. Once you have the *.ipa file, it is easy enough to drag/drop it on the top left pane in iTunes (where the apps are listed) and tell iTunes that yes, you want to replace the newer version with the older version you just dropped there.
Having had several bad experiences with upgrades that didn't work right, I have made it a habit of saving my older versions of apps as I download updates. I think I have about 5-6GB of saved older versions and I have actually gone back to some of them more than once.
