Intel wireless card and Channel 13... on a Z61m running windows xp

Hi guys
I need to configure the built-in Intel wireless 3945abg lan card on my Z61m to use Channel 13 to pick up the modem/router for internet access.
I gather it can (from the Intel site) outside the US and inside the US it uses channels 1-11:
http://www.intel.com/support/wireless/wlan/sb/CS-006064.htm
I have not found any way to configure windows to select channel 13 on the device settings, nor in the Intel software.
Sorry if this is too general a description!
Any ideas?
Cheers,
  Chris

Hi Chris,
glad you could find one.
If you go to page 80 of the Manual pdf you'll see it's only necessary to pop the battery, palm rest and keyboard off in order to be able to swap the card out, or refer to the relevant movies in the following order; battery first, then palm rest followed by keyboard.

  • Intel wireless card and Airport Extreme: non compatible

    Hi,
    just to let you know that after hundreds of test I've found that the new Airport Extreme base station sends non compatible singal that it's not seen by the wireless card of my Acer (the second computer in my home...after a Mac, of course). The card is the Intel Pro Wireless Lan 2100 3b.

    with macbook it works, too.

  • Intel Wireless Card doesn't work with Linksys?

    My wired computer works great with the WRT54GX2, but my wireless cannot hold a signal for very long. Support says they can't help me because I have a Intel wireless card. Intel does not support for that card anymore and I can't see where to buy a Linksys card. Please, help.

  • CB21AG and a Wyse Client Bridge v90 Running Windows XPe

    Has anyone successfully installed the driver and ADU on a Wyse v90 running Windows XPe?
    When I attempt to install the Cisco software for the wireless NIC we are using onto a Wyse V90 running Windows XP embedded, I get the following message. This file does not exist on the disk from Cisco. I did find a copy of it in c:\Windows\System32 but I think that is the one that will be overwritten during install. If I point to the existing file, the install completes but the software does not work. I am able to config using Windows but when I try to turn control over to the Cisco software I cannot configure anything, all options are grayed out and it tells me my hardware is not installed properly.
    Thanks!

    Bill,
    They are running the latest version. this is what I got from cisco tac:
    As per the case notes, it seems that wireless card is not working in Windows XPe.
    Here's the deal with XP Embedded. It is based upon real Windows XP; however the manufacturers are free to use only subsets of real XP if they want to, so in some cases, particular manufacturers have been known to leave out XP features that are necessary for the CB21AG/PI21AG to function properly.
    Since we can't keep track of which manufacturers' XP Embedded implementations will work or won't, we state that XP Embedded is not supported with CB21AG/PI21AG.
    What I would recommend for a PI21AG deployment in an XP Embedded environment is this. First, verify that CB21AG works as desired when installed in real XP (SP2 is recommended.) Then, you can install CB21AG the XP Embedded client and see if it works. If you are having problems installing it or getting it to work in XP Embedded while it works fine with real XP SP2, then they should bring up the problem with the equipment manufacturer, and this is case you will need get the manufacturer to make it work or qualify this card as being a card that they officially support on their particular XP Embedded implementation.
    Since this is not supported, we as TAC can not troubleshoot or provide additional help directly to this issue, that got a be a a functionality for this Windows XP Embedded that is missing, or not implemented, as the
    real XP do.
    If you got to replicate this issue on Windows XP SP2, I will definitively provide you our full support for this issue!

  • I am going to buy either a Mac Air or Mac Pro Retina 8GB RAM and 256GB. And as I have to still run Windows I will install Parallels 9. As the Mac are both 64bit machines does that mean I need to install Windows 7 64bit ? And office pro 2013 64 bit too?

    I am going to buy either a Mac Air or Mac Pro Retina 8GB RAM and 256GB. And as I have to still run Windows programs I will install Parallels 9. As the Mac are both 64bit machines does that mean I need to install Windows 7 64bit or just install 32 bit? (Going with Win7 as I hate Win8). And I will install Office Pro 2013 64 bit too or 32 bit or is that automatically selected by the underlying OS (I use Word, Excel and Access mainly for a membership database of a local club) ? I am not a power user so would appreciate advice on way to go

    Again thank you.  If I only use word, excel and access in the Win environment and Mac OS for email and safari for internet do I need anti virus software . Ie my connection to the world is mac only and I use office pro only to ruin the club, newsletters, membership database etc. and of course anything I do there can drag/drop to the mac environ to email.  That's my understanding anyway.  Next will my existing .pst file copy directly into mac mail or do I have to runs translator  as I recall reading something about that ages ago when I started thinking Mac

  • How can I make Use of PS and Ai (offer) in spite of running Windows Vista ?

    How can I make Use of PS and Ai (offer) in spite of running Windows Vista ?

    Once you have signed up, you could - in theory - choose "other version" under the icon on the CC website and install CS6, but I'm not sure if that works for this special offer or only for "full" CC. Anyway, it seems simple enough to upgrade to Win 7 or Win 8 and perhaps you were planning on starting fresh, anyway...

  • Device failed to start - Code 10 - Intel Wireless Card on NB550D

    Hi everyone,
    It's just a normal Toshiba NB550D netbook
    The only thing that I change is the Wireless Card inside it: the original is a common Atheros half mini card. Recently I have the urge to use internet in 5 ghz (frequency).
    Thus, I decide to replace the old one with the *half mini card Intel Wifi Link 5100 AGN*
    It doesn't turn out so well. The driver is not recognised or more precisely the windows tries to install the driver but FAIL is reported. Device manager tool shows an "!" next to the network card and when I go the its properties at general tab: "*The device failed to start - Code 10*"
    I tried many ways to uninstall the driver and reinstall again ; also tried to download drivers from toshiba website for intel network card.
    Nothing works so far and yeah I just don't know what to do now.
    The possibility that the intel card is broken or malfunctioned is eliminated because I checked that with another laptop already and it just worked like a charm.
    Please help me solve this problem. I really need to use dual band (2.4 and 5 ghz) internet.
    Appreciate any help!!

    >The possibility that the intel card is broken or malfunctioned is eliminated because I checked that with another laptop already and it just worked like a charm
    Regarding the error code 10:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943104/en-us
    +The Code 10 error pertains mainly to hardware and device driver issues or to compatibility issues between hardware drivers and additional software that is installed in Windows.+
    I dont think its Wlan card issue it could be a compatibility problem between the BIOS and the WLan card.
    Not all devices are supported by BIOS.
    But at the other hand the WLan card appears already in device manager and therefore I think there should not be a BIOS compatibility issue.
    Did you check if chipset would handle the Wlan card properly?

  • Lenovo V560-43422GU laptop - which wireless card and is there HDMI output

    Regarding Lenovo V560-43422GU laptop:
    (1) Is there an HDMI output?  Lenovo sales rep says YES, but Bestbuy.com specs say NO.
    (2) Which wireless card is included?  Lenovo gave me a list of possibilities, but said the card is actually specific to each dealer/store.  Please tell me which one of the following cards will be in the laptop if I buy it from Bestbuy.com.
    Intel 6250
    Intel 5150
    Intel 6200
    Intel 1000
    Broadcom 4313
    AR 9285

    Very good questions with no precise answers online.
    I see you already posted on the Lenovo forums and they do not have an answer for you right away I love how the tech says he will contact you in a FEW days... and it is their product. I had a smiliar situation with them and it took 3 days lol.
    Again, I see you did your searching well... not a lot of information seems available.I guess physically seeing the computer can verifiy this.
    Looking at image #4 on the Best Buy site shows there is an HDMI port, but it is covered.... and that concerns me especially when the SPECS say it does not have an HDMI port. I really do not see why it would not have an HDMI port available, even the lower lines of Lenovo z565 and b560 have them available.... it is almost becoming a standard now days for HDMI.

    I will be at a Best Buy on Thursday.
    If you do not get a reply back by then I will be there and physically check the machine for the HDMI and interally for the Wi-Fi card that is in there...
    But hopefully you get a more informational reply before then =)
    I will check back in on Thursday.
    Let me know if you have any questions before then.
    Good Luck to you.

  • S230u Thinkpad Twist Intel Wireless Card Compatability?

    Is there an official list as to what Wireless Cards will work with the Lenovo Twist.  I know when they were sold you had two options of cards, and had to decide if you wanted the Intel which supported Miricast or the Broadcom version which supported 5Ghz. Intel Centrino Wireless-N 2230 & Bluetooth 4.0 (2x2 BGN & BT 4)Thinkpad a/b/g/n Wireless & Bluetooth 4.0 (2x2 ABGN & BT 4.0) Now there are Intel Cards out that support all of the above such as the Advanced-N 6235, but I can find no information if this or any other Intel cards will work with the Thinkpad Twist.  Any info would be appreciated.  Thanks.

    There was an interesting post on Amazon about wireless cards for the Twist.  I'm going to try to upgrade from my Broadcom to an "Intel WiFi part 2230BNHMW chip with "FRU P/N 04W3765" written right on the face of the card" on my 3-year-old Twist, based on the poster's info: "Some Twists come with WiDi support and some don't. Mine didn't. It had the newest dual band (2.4 and 5 g) WiFi card that doesn't support WiDi because it isn't made by Intel. Lenovo did this all to save a couple of bucks. So I brought a WiFi card that did support WiDi and Lenovo had whitelisted the card and I had to return it to get a single band, "Lenovo certified", Intel chip. It would have been nice if Lenovo stated that it didn't have the correct WiFi card for WiDi. You will need the Intel WiFi part 2230BNHMW chip with "FRU P/N 04W3765" written right on the face of the card - the 04W3765 is the Lenovo part number. This is the only chip that will get past Lenovo whitelisting that will make WiDi work. Using the new Intel Wifi card had no impact the Twist's WiFi performance at my house. When I installed the WiFi chip, I didn't have to update any drivers. The computer automatically did it upon booting. The chip was very easy to install and if you go to the Lenovo Twist support website the manual shows you exactly how to do it. However, I did have to update the Audio driver using the Lenovo driver website. This is important because I updated all of the drivers using the Lenovo website when I got the computer. However, the Lenovo website failed to update the audio drivers. So when I first used the WiDi I had no sound. It was very easy to update but you will likely need to update the audio drivers separately should you do what I did. Once I installed the WiDi software for Windows 8 (from the Lenovo Website) and added the Neatgear Push2TV 3000 to my TV, it worked like a charm (I also updated the software on the Push2TV 3000 - PTV3000 that I purchased from Amazon. However, I don't think that this was critical)."  

  • Wireless cards and uploading iWeb??

    Spent many hours/days trying to upload our new iWeb site to our hosting service (not MobileMe or .Mac) via both Cyberduck and Filezilla. The files start uploading and then after a few minutes, it stops and gives me an Incomplete msg. Our site is mainly text and photos (about 9MB, I believe)- no slide shows, blogs or anything fancy. A fellow at the hosting service suggested that maybe using a wireless card could be the problem. Has anyone had trouble with this???
    Thank you.

    Well, we switched from using a wireless card to our local internet service which isn't wireless (except for the three feet from our computer to the little black box!). We still had trouble uploading our iWeb site to the hosting service (we switched to HostExcellence). FileZilla (as well as Cyberduck) kept shutting down in the middle of an upload (even when I broke it down into small files). Finally, I worked with one fellow from HE who had me PUT OUR FILES INTO A ZIP FILE AND IT WORKED!!
    Just wanted to share that in case it could help anyone.
    Thanks

  • Wireless card and kernel panic

    So for no apparent reason my airport has failed in my powerbook 17" 1.5 w/1.5. It just has no strength to start and seems to loose juice as time in a given session passes. so I threw a wireless card I had in to see how it would fare. The good news is that it works great but the bad news was that I often had to restart it up to 10x to get it to start instead of just going to the kernel panic screen. The functionality is so hobbled without the card that I'm willing to do this every time I restart but it would be great to make everything sing again.The card is a Sonnet card and they have no functional plugin to fix the issue. I'm running 10.4.9 solidly with no other issues and no other problems once i get a clean startup. Any ideas?

    Kernel panics are not good news as my FAQ* explains:
    http://www.macmaps.com/kernelpanic.html
    If they happen only with the Sonnet card, ask them for updated drivers.
    If they happen with no Sonnet card, it sounds like the router you are using needs a new firmware update. See my FAQ* on Wireless:

  • WLC 5508/2504 - Wireless users having their Citrix sessions disappear randomly! Cisco APs, Intel Wireless Cards..

    Last year we built a new citrix 6.5 farm on 2k8 r2 servers. Previously, we had a 4.5 farm running solid.
    With the new farm, wiresless users connecting through ANY cisco wireless controller/ap will get disconnected at what seams "peak" times.
    For example, a user will launch a published application at 8:05 in the AM, and a few minutes later; the application will just disappear. Within the mgmt console, it will show the session as disconnected. The users device will remain connected to the WLAN, and if they double click the application, it will relaunch immediately.
    This never happened on our old farm! We are using the same laptops + some newer updated models.
    It is also important to note that fat client/thin clients do not experience this at all. I can open an application on my desktop and leave it open all day, where as if I do such on a laptop it is bound to disappear atleast once during the day. Aside  from hitting the WLC; both packets take the same path.
    I'm working with Citrix right now gathering logs; but nothing is jumping out right away at us.
    Has anyone here experience something similar?
    This discussion is the same thing thats happening to me I believe;
