Atheros WLAN Driver Fixes Connection Issues With Many New Routers (Linksys, Netgear, D-Link, etc...)

Hi:
This post is for those that have the below listed Atheros adapters, and recently upgraded their routers (usually from a Wireless G to a Wireless N router from 2009 or newer), only to find they cannot connect to the internet anymore.
Atheros AR5006 802.11a/b/g WiFi Adapter
Atheros AR5007 802.11b/g WiFi Adapter
Atheros AR5009 802.11a/g/n WiFi Adapter
When using their old equipment, there were no problems.
Symptom:  When upgrading to a new router, normally connection is made to the local network, but one cannot access the internet.
Symptom:  Wireless connects if using WEP security or no security, but will not connect when using WPA2-Personal security.
For those who have the above Atheros wireless adapters, and are experiencing issues with connecting to the internet, there is a driver available that should remedy the situation. 
It is good for Windows operating systems -- Windows XP through Windows 7 -- 32 or 64 bit.
It may work on Windows 8 too, but I haven't tested it on Windows 8.
Here is the link to the driver download page:

Best Regards,
Paul

I created an HP account just to thank you for this link. I've spent 2 days online and talking to call centers trying to get this driver. I was finally going to just return my router to Best Buy. Thank you SO much!

  • How can i fix Connection issues with back to my mac since yosemite upgrade.

    Ok I have been having nothing but problems with back to my mac since the upgrade. both machines are using yosemite and I have even reinstalled yosemite on both still having connection issues. anyone else know how I can fix this? I get one of 2 error messages one that says there is a problem connecting and i should make sure screen sharing is active and then another that says the server does not exist. So far to get it working it involves restarting back to my mac or both macs. This is not a good fix since once I disconnect and try to reconnect a few hours later it does it all over again. I am currently in France and needless to say my parents are starting to get really annoyed with constantly having to do things on there end so I can remote into my iMac.Before the yosemite upgrade I maybe had to do this once or twice.

    What I have done is open Disk Utility, Repair Permissions, and do that more than once if it returns a lot of errors in the permissions.  Then Restart the Mac.
    Also, go to System Preferences > Spotlight and try turning off a couple settings such as search suggestions...these things are taking a lot of resources now.

  • Will you guys PLEASE fix the issues with the new update; it keeps crashing my ipad 2

    Guys, the new update is driving me crazy! I can't even delete and reinstall apps because it keeps crashing when I hit the install button. DO SOMETHING!!

    We here are not employees or representatives of Apple. We are all users like yourself.
    Two things that might help. Reset all your settings and reset the phone.  Use the Settings app to reset all settings. Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings  Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that helps.
    You might also let us know the specific problems you have, what you've done to correct them and what, if any error messages you have received. With that info someone here might be able to help you.

  • Connection issues with Safari 3

    I'm having some connection issues with Safari 3.
    When I connect wirelessly, Safari won't load any web pages. I go and use Firefox and everything is just peachy.
    I've reset Safari, emptied the cache and whatnot. I went in and checked the permissions, everything checks out.
    When I connect with Ethernet, there's nothing wrong, which is my dilemma.
    Help would be greatly appreciated.

    There are a number of posts in the Leopard forum from people with direct experience with upgrading from Panther to Leopard. Here is a relevant thread from there that should reassure you.:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1418714
    Your system should be fine for Leopard, but you will probably need a current version of Photoshop if you don't already have it. See this download:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/products/pdfs/leopardsupport.pdf
    Also, Leopard doesn't run Classic (OS 9) apps.
    One caveat - first make a bootable backup "clone" of your present system onto an external firewire drive so you can recover if anything goes wrong. You can use the "Restore" tab of Disk Utility to make such a clone, and there are also Panther-compatible versions of Carbon Copy Cloner (v 2.3) and SuperDuper (v 2.1.4), both excellent for this.
    It's even possible to a create second Panther clone on a different external volume to create a "dual-boot" system, using that volume to continue to run old applications that you can't run with Leopard.

  • Windows 7 Update Internet Connection Issue with Router

    I updated two of four toshiba laptops with Windows 7 and installed Toshiba's wireless adapter driver for Windows 7. The adapter connects to the router and I can access all resources on my home network, however, Internet service is not available on the two laptops with the Windows 7 update. After disconnecting and reconnecting 7-10 times, the Internet Service connection does not drop. The other two laptops and two desktops that are not running Windows 7 do not have this problem. Is there any known issues with lynksys wireless routers and Windows 7?

    When your Windows 7 machine is having problems, can it ping the following IP addresses:
    127.0.0.1 (local loopback)
    192.168.1.x - the DHCP IP address it was issued by the router
    192.168.1.254 - your router
    8.8.8.8 - Google DNS out on the internet

  • Cellular connectivity issue with iPad 4th gen

    Hi folks,
    I'm currently running iOS 7 beta 2 since it was made available for tablets on Monday. I am having a major cellular connectivity issue with Rogers. My iPhone 5 is also running iOS 7 beta 2 and has no issue with cellular connectivity (also on Rogers's network).
    On my iPad, I'm having full or almost full reception but data doesn't work at all. Tried reboot and hard reboot, resets of wireless settings and nothing fixed my issue.
    Is it related to iOS 7 beta 2? Is anyone having a similar issue?
    Btw, model is iPad3,5.
    Thanks!

  • Connection issues with EA4500

    I had bad connection issues with my mobile device, so i pressed reset on my EA4500 router, and now when i connect to my network, it gives my limited connection even though i have 5 bars of signal. Not sure what to do now...

    Resetting the router will erase all the settings you configured on the router since the initial setup. You manually configure the router's wireless settings so your wireless devices can have internet access again.
    Procedure: http://kb.linksys.com/Linksys/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=cfb50c0dc992443ab2405a782cca60f7_19073.xml&pid=80&...
    Make sure to use a computer that is hardwired via Ethernet cable to the router.

  • CR2008 connectivity issue with BOE Universes(sap and non sap universes)

    Hi Experts !!
    Recently we tried to build/connect to a Universe in Crystal Reports2008 via 'Make a new connection tab'.
    The universes are of SAP BW or non SAP Lying in BOE Servers and we are trying to build reports on them by conncting/utilizing the universes as a database for Crystal Reporting.
    Our issue is most of the time we are not able to connect to the Universes and the connectivity blows out by some 'communication Error' thing initially.
    While at some other points in time, the connectivity takes us to the Universe and we are able to select few characteristics and key figures from the Universe but the moment we go futher and try to run by pressing 'OK' button it blows out and say' LOGON FAILED'.
    Apparantly, it is an connectivity issue with BOE server and from the different blogs it looks like it is a known issue for long.
    The proposed issue resolution were like either CR2008 should be SP2 with BOE SP3 or there should be some additional .dll files defined in the paths in case of MSSQL database. None of this applies to us as we are on CR2008 with SP3 and going back to SP2 is probably not a viable option for us, and we are using Oracle as underlying database in this specific case.( i would like to tell you here that we are able to connect to Oracle Database directly though).
    We have raised a message with SAP and was just wondering if we do have some solution/workaround already available to this known issue in place please?
    Thanks&Regards.

    Hi Amit,
    Moved to Universe Forum.
    If you have a case logged then no point posting here also, this is a public site and not a case management tool.
    Once you do get the solution from your case please post it here also to help others if they have the same problem.
    Thank you

  • I have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on my MacBook. Constantly dropping internet connection or message "error connecting to the network" comes up. No wireless connectivity issues with windows 7 laptop or iphone.

    I have a MacBook with Snow Leopard 10.6.8. The last few weeks it has been constantly dropping internet connection, and one of these messages appear on the page: "Safari cannot open this page because the server where this page is located isn't responding" or "Safari cannot open this page because you are not connected to the internet" comes up. I will check Wifi and I am connected. No wifi connectivity issues with iphone or windows 7 laptop, this doesn't happen with either of those devices. I have unplugged and reset router, cleared cache, still happening. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

  • HT1386 I have a new Macbook pro. I downloaded all previous Itunes purchases and then sync my IPhone. The New song that I purchased today appear on the IPhone however it will not play. How do I fix the issue with my IPhone?

    I have a new Macbook pro. I downloaded all previous Itunes purchases and then sync my IPhone. The New songs that I purchased today appear on the IPhone however it will not play. How do I fix the issue with my IPhone?

    Hey Etti101,
    I'd start off your troubleshooting process by deleting and redownloading the songs:
    If iTunes in the Cloud is available in your country, try the following steps to resolve the issue:
    Delete the purchased song that is exhibiting the problem from your iTunes library.
    Click on the Purchased link in the iTunes Store to view your previously purchased music.
    Download your previously purchased song from this list.
    via: Songs in iTunes may not play back completely

  • 8.1 did not fix Bluetooth issue with iPhone 5 and car

    8.1 didn't fix my issue with Bluetooth. I can receive calls and play music thru my Mazda CX-9 but I cannot make outgoing calls. My daughter has same issue with her iPhone 5 in her car so it has to be glitch with Apple yet. Please help. I'm so totally frustrated and I'm not eligible for iPhone 6 until January.

    I found there is another contact group list as part of the Bluetooth sync menu; altering that took care of the issue.
    This is a non-issue.

  • SFTP connection issue with Dreamweaver 2014

    I have a very weird SFTP connection issue with Dreamweaver CC (2014). I am on a Mac running 10.9.4 and have no problem connecting to my server through SFTP with Dreamweaver CS 6. However, using the exact same settings on CC (2014), I get the following error: "An FTP error occurred - cannot make connection to host. Your login or password is incorrect. Please check your connection information".
    I am truly at a loss here. Command line connection works without problems.
    Any thoughts?

    Hi there,
    Try after rebooting your system or in a different user account on MAC.
    Is there any limit with number of login sessions with your SFTP?
    Could you check with Filezila or similar FTP client and connect to your site, see if you get any error there?
    Thanks.
