Audigy 2 ZS Interfering with WIFI c

System Specs:
P4 .6 GHz on an Intel D845HV Board
Audigy 2 ZS
Linksys WMP 802.b Wireless Network Card
Windows 2000 Professional (SP4)
Upon installation of my sound card, the wireless network card installed next to my new sound card stopped functioning properly. When I have my sound card enabled, my internet connection becomes slow and laggy. Under these conditions, even simple tasks like downloading email from an email server become impossible. However, when I disable the sound card with the device manager in windows control panel, my wireless network card works as normal.
I have tried installing both cards in different PCI slots (I only have 2 PCI slots availabe because one is blocked by my video card cooler), updating drivers, and creative customer support, but nothing seems to make my wireless network card work properly while my sound card is enabled
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated and thx ahead of time

Ok, Customer Support is leaning towards a resource problem and has suggested that I change the IRQ of my soundcard; however, I am using Windows 2000 with ACPI mode. When I looked at the Intel webpage (Intel is the maker of my motherboard), I found this:
"In Windows* 2000, some or all of the devices on your ACPI motherboard may be listed on the Resources tab in Device Manager as using the same IRQ (IRQ 9). You cannot change the IRQ setting because the setting is unavailable. This occurs because Windows* 2000 takes advantage of the ACPI features of the motherboard, including advanced PCI sharing. IRQ 9 is used by the PCI bus for IRQ steering. This feature lets you add more devices without generating IRQ conflicts."
While my sound card and WIFI card are not on the same IRQ (WIFI IRQ is 22, and Sound Card IRQ is 23) and the IRQ is clearly not 9 like this excerpt exemplifies, it leads me to believe that I cannot manually assign an IRQ with ACPI enabled.
Again, this seems to be a problem only in Windows 2K, so would a switch to Windows XP fix this situation? Also, if they are not on the same IRQ right now, how would changing the IRQs help anything in this situation. Any feedback is welcome.

Xmod wireless interfeering with wifi in the room

xmod wireless interfeering with wifi in the room
just bought the x mod wireless transmitter and receiver bundle
sounds awesome but wifi stops dead in its tracks as soon as I switch on the transmitter / receiver.
i've got both of them in the same room btw.
any [email protected]

I am having the same problem on my Sony Vaio with Windows Vista installed. When using Xmod wireless to stream internet radio, my WiFi will stop working? immediatly and restart again once Xmod is disconnected from the PC.
When I connect the PC directly to the router via ethernet cable all works perfectly well.
Could this be due to a conflict between the Xmod Wireless and the built in WiFi adaptor and if so, what could be the steps to detect and resolve?
FYI.
Originally I used the Xmod Wireless on Dell Insprion with XP installed and the weired problem with WiFi disconecting did not exist on the other PC

HT4199 Mac Cinema display interfering with WiFi connection

Year-old MacBook Pro works fine with WiFi UNTIL I plug into my older Mac 21" Cinema display - which I need to do via Rocketfish adaptor, and a female firewire adaptor. Plug in - offline. Unplug - back online.
I have messed with network settings repeatedly, and got things running for a small pocket of time. Restart the day after, back offline.
Note that my older MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard doesn't have this issue - only the new computer, which requires the adaptors to do so.
Any help is greatly appreciated - this is killing productivity!!!

Actually, Niel is half-right. After searching for over a month, and researching all sorts of options that "might" work, I went with the Atlona Dual-DVI to Mini DisplayPort (see link above - discontinued so you'll have to look on Amazon or eBay) and the Apple Nvidia 6800 GT DDL video card (look on eBay for approx. $70-$100).
To achieve full native resolution on the Apple 27" Cinema LED, (2560x1440), you'll have to have both a Dual-DVI to Mini DisplayPort converter/adapter (like the Atlona), IN ADDITION to one of the higher-end "build to order" video cards like the Nvidia 6800 GT DDL or Ultra DDL which can support resolutions greater than the stock 1900x1200 on a single DVI-equipped stock card that came with most PowerMac G5's.
Hope this helps clarify a little for those looking to stretch the lifespan of those bastardized G5's. ;)

Suspect 7.1.1 update interfering with wifi ?

Since updating to ios 7.1.1 have been getting messages 'not connected to Internet' even though wifi symbol still visible. This occurs in various programs i. e. Hulu, Netflix etc.... It is not unique to this device. Three iPhones in family have same issue since updating 2 iPhone 4s ;1 iPhone 5s

There is local network and there is the internet. Don't confuse the two. Just because you are connected to a local network does not mean the network is connected to the internet.
Generally, recycling your modem/router will fix things.
Have a nice day.

Comcast Arris Modem/Router interfering with AirPort Extreme?

Constantly getting knocked off the internet. Using an Arris Modem/Router TG862G
and an Apple Airport Router.
3 feet separate each router.
Am I getting knocked off the internet; because my AirPort Extreme is "confusing" my Arris Modem? Could interference cause internet disconnections?
Or is it likely something else?
Thanks

I had this same exact issue occur when I connected a printer to my Time Capsule, literally unplug everything from the router i.e. printer, computer, etc. etc. and wait a few minutes. Then re-plug all the peripherals (try different ports, except the LAN ) and see if that solves your wifi issue. If not, then unplug the router and just "give it a rest" then re-plug everything. If that doesn't work then defineitely try a hard reset or see if one of your connected devices is interfering with the network. In my case it was the printer that screwed up my connection and not the modem. I would also try switching LAN ports on the modem and see if that helps.
Hope this helps!

Macbook Pro w/ Retina Display Issues with Wifi with Bluetooth.

I have a Macbook Pro with Retina Display, 2.3 Ghz model. I've noticed that while on wifi, when I use a bluetooth mouse or even turn on bluetooth on my computer, the wifi performance severely decreases for a short period of time. While using a bluetooth mouse the wifi intermittently fails and I need to shut off wifi and turn it back on to correct the issue.
Using the ping utility on terminal I have confirmed this in that when bluetooth is turned on, a large number of packets are lost for about ten seconds.
Has anyone else been experiencing this problem and is this an issue I can correct myself or should I contact Apple?
Thanks

I have the same issue with my macbook pro with retina display. I have 2 macbook pros. I never would of thought that a bluetooth signal was interfering with both of them. I had a gateway wireless router that only had 2.4 Ghz 802.11 b/g, which is the same frequency of bluetooth. I know that bluetooth bounces from channel to channel, whereas wifi sticks to one constant channel (normally). I have reinstalled my mac twice, thinking that somehow my drivers were corrupted. This was false becuase everytime I reinstalled it did the same thing, Act fine for 5-10 minutes and randomly the internet connection would freeze up all together for 10-20 seconds. I have also tried contacting apple multiple times and they tried to do a smc and pram reset. They also tried to get rid of my chaches in my computer. It all seemed to be fine, and then when I got off the phone it would act us once more.
     I have read numerous articles to try and fix the situation; one of them was to try change the location of the network and change the MTU size. No help. I called At&T (my internet provider) and got a new router and that did work for a while. But eventually acted up again. The router was still 2.4 GHz 802.11 b/g. I read this article and found out that my Magic Mouse might be causing the issue. Turns out to be true. Everytime I would browser the internet or browse the itunes store and it would freeze, i would immediatly turn the bluetooth off and what do you know, it works!!! This is a huge dissapointment in apple however. It seems to be only a macbook pro w/ retina display issue. My other macbook pro only acts up when i'm using my newer one (something is wrong with the bluetooth and wifi in the retina for the 2.4 ghz frequencies.
     I just got a Airport express, and have not experienced this issue what so ever. This is due to the fact that it is a dual band wireless router. It supports 2.4Ghz and 5 Ghz both at 802.11 a/b/g/n which is a major improvement compared to what I had. I use the 5Ghz frequency and have no issues still.
     This is still an issue however because if I want to go out and use anothers persons wifi, I can't control their frequency. So I will still have this issue.

Problem with wifi connection

Hello everyone i'm new user of BlackBerry and i must say it's great phone
but I have a one little problem with wifi connection:
when i open "Call Management" and turn on wifi connection, find my home router network and connect with it- i have not green hook like with my telephone connection but only white minus
Sou I think BB find my wifi connection but can't take internet from router?
I had only one time working connection, but next day it lost
The same problem i found on other forums but no one know how to solve the problem.
Please help me solve this problem.
ps: sorry for my english hope all is understandable
Regards

I, too had problems connecting my iTouch with my home computer. I did everything suggested and then called Apple. They worked very hard for me to find the problem ... even the engineers got involved. They found that the Symantec firewall downloaded from my ISP, Comcast, interfered with the iTouch communicating with the computer. As soon as I disabled the Symantec wall (not the internal mac firewall) my iTouch was back communicating with my computer. Apple deserves a lot of credit for isolating the problem. So, for those of you with this problem, check out your third party security software and remove what you must. Kudos to Apple customer service on this one.

IPhone is with 100% Reproducibility Interfering with Magic Mouse & Bluetooth

My Magic Mouse would start acting up @random - Sometimes days would pass with no problems other days I would have the problems all the time...
Last week I wanted to find the culprit. And I have !!!
It is the iPhone.
I made a list and took notes of what I was doing every time the issue occurred.
The console would should no sign of anything.
the past week - My girlfriend had been using my iPhone to listen to music in a separate room. This week, I bought her a stereo ;-)
The past week I had ZERO trouble - this week nothing but trouble.
Going thru' my list, I noted that only the iPhone was the missing link.
So as the iphone was sitting next to me and the problem occurred I did this
Turned off its Bluetooth...     == No Change     (Lag & weirdness)
Turned off its WIFI               == No Change     (Lag & weirdness)
Put it into Airplane Mode     == Change          (No Lag No weirdness)
Put it back into Std Mode     == Change          (Lag & weirdness)
Moved iPhone to kitchen     == Change          (No Lag No weirdness)
I can do this all the time and repeat the problem 100% of the time
The iPhone is most definitely interfering with the stability of the Magic Mouse... NOT with the Trackpad !!!!!!!
Both using BlueTooth
But the again, we all know in 2014 that the only magic about the magic mouse is its ability to produce magic results,
NOT invoked by the user and cause Wrist Pain. But hey, it looks really cool ;-)
Hope this helps anyone with this problem,
I tested this with my iPhone 4s running iOS 7 --- So I don't know whether this applies to other models and OSs

I have this same type of problem. As long as wifi is off bluetooth works. Turn wifi on and bluetooth can no longer find anything—no phones, computers, speakers, mouse etc... Bluetooth worked perfect rooms apart before Mavericks. I called Apple and they think it's a hardware issue with the mini. It's funny for something to be working so well before the software update. I told them to put the case on hold and I will wait for the OS update. If the OS update doesn't come I suppose I will drive the hour or so to the nearest Apple repair shop and have them look at it. The main reason I'm posting is I see very little about this issue being discussed. I hope to see some replies. Thanks.

Does BT interfear with wifi

Does the BT signal interfear with wifi in any way? Or are they different enough that there is no effect?
MBP, Airport Extreme, Trackpad

They don't interfer. Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are completely different, so they can't interfer. You can use both without worrying about it

Problmes with wifi turn off with disable greyish in window 8.1 pro 9600

Hi,
I updated window 8 to window 8.1 pro build 9600 version.
I am getting a problem with WIFI turn off disable grayish color which cannot be enabled.
WIFI adapter is installed and working properly.
Plz suggest what will be the fix of this issue.
Thanks.

Hi,
Did you mean the Adapter is greyed out and we cannot click to turn on it? Is there a wifi switch on your laptop? If so, please turn on it first.
Also please try the network troubleshooter to see if the issue can be fixed:
1) Right Click network icon in taskbar and select "open network and sharing center"
2) Highlight wifi connection then at top click "Diagnose this connection"
The troubleshooter will discover that the WiFi connection is turned off and offer a "Apply fix" option click that and windows will enable the wifi connection.
To make sure the driver for Network adapter is the right one, please go to manufacturer’s website to see if there is the one compatible with Windows 8.1.
If not, we can try to install the one applied to Windows 8 in compatible mode to see what’s going on.
Since such issue can be caused by driver bug, please also contact the manufacturer to see if they can provide more information about this issue.

My ipod touch 4th gen battery only lasts for 3 hours with wifi and brightness fully down

My ipod touch 4th gen battery life if asful only lasts a maxium of 3 hours with wifi turned off and brightness fully down any suggestions?

You can try restoring the iPod. However, it could be that the battery is going bad.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished onewith a new battery for $79. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the followingwill rplace it for less. Google for more.

Replace the battery yourself if you are up to it. You can purchace a replacement battery for about $10

I've been texting my friend with iMessage with wifi on and all of a sudden it changed to text message and won't let me send messages. My wifi is still on and working but it won't switch back to iMessage. Please help

I've been texting my friend with iMessage with wifi on and all of a sudden it changed to text message and won't let me send messages. My wifi is still on and working but it won't switch back to iMessage. Please help

What I recommend you try doing first is to turn iMessage off then back on. If that doesn't work, make sure that your Apple ID and password are correct. If everything seems correct and you still can't send out messages using iMessage instead of text message, I think you should either try calling AppleCare at 1-800-MY-IPHONE (1-800-694-7466) and/or scheduling an appointment at the Genius Bar at an Apple Store (that is, if there's one close to you).
Hope this helps!

Issues with WiFi connection to Deskjet 3545

Hi,
I have number of issues with WiFi connection to my new Deskjet 3545 AIO:
1. Printer is not able to get IP address automatically from home WiFi router (all other devices get IP with no problem). Using WPS allow printer to register in network but after switching off, WPS setting is not stored, so I have to do it again. This I was able to solve with manual entering of IP address, netwrok mask, DNS and gateway address.
2. Official HP software installed from HP site was able to find printer for 3dattempt, and it started to work. But after a while, "HP utility" program loose connection to printer, so I can not see any parameters, and I get "can not find printerä message when start to to print. After a some time (minutes to hours), whithout any action from my side, connection to printer seems to be restored, so I can see printer parameters in "HP utility" and printing is started.
3. Official HP software installed from HP site on PC (Windows 7) is not able to find printer on WiFi at all, works only with USB.
All this is disaponinting and unexpected, as my office HP LaserJet Pro 400 Color works perfect.

Hi @DmiBro,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I see that you are having some wireless issues with your HP Deskjet 3545 to your Mac OS X 10.10 and Windows 7 computers. I am sorry to hear this, but I am happy to help!
I would recommend the following guides:
HP Single-Function and Multifunction Printers - 'Printer is offline' Message Displays on the Compute.... (The solutions for OS X v10.8 Mountain Lion and OS X v10.9 Mavericks will work on Mac OS X 10.19 Yosemite.)

Tips for troubleshooting wireless connection issues
The following tips can help you troubleshoot and avoid wireless connectivity issues. You can try these tips separately or in combination to get a successful wireless signal.
Move the printer and the computer closer to the router, but no closer than 6 ft (1.8 m). Wireless signals can be weaker at greater distances between the printer and the router.
If you are experiencing an intermittent wireless connection, try restarting your router. Consult your router manufacturer, Internet service provider, or network administrator for instructions on how to restart the router.
Remove any metal objects between the printer, the computer, and the router. Objects such as refrigerators, microwaves, or metal bookcases can interfere with wireless transmission.
Move any device that emits radio signals, such as microwaves and cordless telephones, farther away from the printer. Such devices can interfere with wireless signals.
I would also recommend this website, HP Wireless Printing Center - Troubleshooting Issues.
Hope this information is helpful, and have a nice day!
