Laptop wireless upgrade

I have a dv9608nr laptop. it is a G wireless card, and I would like to upgrade to an "N" compliant card. Are there cards out there? could not locate one on the HP site...point me in the right direction.

Hi:
Yes there is.
If you live in the USA or Canada you can install the Broadcom 4321AGN 802.11a/b/g/n card.
HP Part # 434661-001
It is also a dual band card with speeds up to 300 MPBS on the 5.0 GHz band.
I got mine in used but tested and working condition on eBay. Query your search by the part number. The card must have the HP part number on it or it will not work.

17-1181nr Laptop wireless upgrade options

Hello,
This is a situation that most people will need to address at some point with thier laptop. I have a 2 year old HP Envy 17-1181nr. I want to replace the internal Broadcom wireless card with one that supports 802.11ac so I don't have to glue some ugly USB adapter to the back of the screen that will break off in my bag anyway. The BIOS needs to accept it. It needs to take advantage of the existing internal antenna and connecter, and have drivers for Windows 8.1 64-bit. I only see 3 MB/s local network file transfer rates on a 150 mb/s connection now and my goal is to triple that. Everything else on the network is upgraded.
Thanks everyone.

Well I guess I am willing to take one for the team. Sorry there is no 802.11ac adapter available for that model. We here at the Forum do not work for HP we just try to help. The BIOS will block any effort to install one of the 802.11ac adapters. There are hacked BIOS out there you can try. I do not get involved in that either but I can tell you they exist.

I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever. Is that right?
In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

Connecting XP laptop wirelessly to AEBS

Hi,
I'm having trouble connecting my laptop running Windows XP to an AEBS that connects well to my iMac desktop (via ethernet cable) and my Powerbook laptop (wirelessly).
I've been able to get a signal with full strength using WPA2 Personal from the AEBS, and using WPA-PSK and TKIP on my XP machine, but still can't connect to the internet.
I tried following the directions on iFelix, and switching over to WEP but was still not successful.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Milo

See if it is an encryption issue, turn off all encryption temporarily and see if you can now connect.
This will determine if it is an encryption issue or something else.
Does the XP laptop get a valid IP address or is it a self-assigned address as in 169.x.x.x or similar?

Unable to Delete Previous Update/Wireless Upgrades Hangs

I have a BlackBerry Curve 8310 and recently upgrade the OS to 4.5. I read in the manual that the old OS is kept on the BB for 30 days but can be deleted by going to Options - Advanced - Wireless Upgrades. However, when I do that it just says Retrieving Upgrades and never does anything. Hitting the menu key does nothing either. Any advice? Thanks.
Carl

I've never heard of that... If you are pleased with the new upgrade, don't worry about the old.
I don't believe it is still on your device.

Windows laptops wireless access to the Internet and not to any of my files?

TC late 2008. I want to give Windows laptops wireless access to the Internet and not to any of my files? I have tried to locate "Guest" accounts in my Airport Utility with no luck and I do not understand my options. Example: Could I add a Linksys Wireless-G Cable Gateway router before or after my TC and not have a security problem?

Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.
Guest networking requires a "simultaneous dual-band" AirPort Extreme or Time Capsule. Those weren't introduced until 2009.
Are the files you want to protect on your Time Capsule or on your Mac? You can protect files on your Time Capsule with a password. In AirPort Utility look at the Disks panel, File Sharing tab.

Do you experience the same issue using other browsers, e.g. Safari?

Unable to connect on laptop wirelessly

I can't connect to the internet on my laptop but I'm able to when I don't turn on any wireless security. When I set as WPA/WPA2 security then I can't connect to my network on my laptop wirelessly. I'm using a WRT160n v3 linksys router.
Message Edited by klyy on 01-02-2010 04:01 PM

If you are using Win XP, you will need SP3 to run WPA2 ( = WPA with AES). Vista already runs WPA2.
Next, in the router, give your network a new unique SSID. Do not use "linksys". Do not use your old SSID. If you are using "linksys" you may be trying to connect to your neighbor's router. Also set "SSID Broadcast" to "enabled". This will help your computer find and lock on to your router's signal.
Next, in the computer, go to your wireless software, and go to "Preferred Networks" (sometimes called "Profiles" ). There are probably a few networks listed. Delete any network named "linksys". Delete any network with your old SSID. Also delete any network that you do not recognize, or that you no longer use. Then enter your new network info (SSID, encryption (if any), and key (if any) ). Then select your current network and make it your default network, and set it to automatic login. You may need to go to "settings" to do this, or you may need to right click on your network and select "Properties" or "settings". Reboot computer. Your computer should connect automatically to your router (it can take up to 2 minutes). If you still have trouble, temporarily turn off your computer software firewall and try again to connect.
If the above does not fix your problem, download and install the latest driver for your computer's wireless adapter.
Some users have reported improved wireless performance by switching to WPA encryption.
Note:
For WEP, enter WEP "key 1" (found in the router) into your computer, not the WEP password or passphrase.
For WPA or WPA2, enter the key (sometimes called password or passphrase) into your computer.

Signal Drop due to laptop wireless?

Hi guys,
Just wanted to know any possible reasons to why my iPhone drops my phone signal the moment my laptop wireless is switched on? If i switch the wireless off, the service doesnt return either, i have to remove the sim and re-insert it and the iPhone will then manage to get the service back and if that doesnt work i have to manually select the carrier, and even then its tempermental.
As of now i have service and the laptop wireless is off but im going to need to use the wireless on my laptop eventually, and my iPhone at the same time....Sooo, solving this seems a priority for me.

Because the drop could have caused internal damage.
The resonance from the drop may have caused little physical damage but it could have damaged internal parts.
This happens when you drop a radio or even a walkie talkie it just is unseen damage.

Need to know which is better and faster for laptop memory upgrade

What is the difference and which is better for a laptop memory upgrade: SDRAM, DDR SDRAM, SIMM? One site suggested DDR SDRAM and BB suggested SO DIMM

SODIMM is the physical form factor of the module, DDR SDRAM is the actual memory type.
SIMMs are an ANCIENT form of memory module. If you have a system that uses SIMMS, you will spend less money throwing your computer in the trash and buying a new one.
Non-DDR SDRAM is also ancient.
Each system can only use one type of memory, i.e. you can't use DDR memory in a system that only used non-DDR memory, and you can't use DDR2 memory in a DDR system.
To find out if the configuration is 2x256 or 1x512, you'll need to look at what is installed.

HP2050 J510A is it compatible with Hp wireless upgrade Kit

Hi I wish to buy a HP wireless upgrade kit to fit on my HP Deskjet 2050 J510A printer.
I want to know if it is compatible with my HP printer
Thank you,
TigerTears.

Hello-
That is an awesome part, I think it would work great. Although it doesn't show your particular model printer on the compatible list, It should work. I'll include the link to call a sales person to ask about "return" time if it doesn't.

Keep in mind, you can almost buy a new printer for about the same price. If you call Tech Support (1-800-474-6836), you can receive savings for being a loyal HP customer (Out of WTY upgrade) and could get extended WTY (carepack) for and extra dollar !!

Iphone 4 not recognised by laptop after upgrading Itunes, the itunes symbol and a usb cord has appeared on my Iphone 4 screen. Frustrated isn't the word.

iphone 4 not recognised by laptop after upgrading Itunes, the itunes symbol and a usb cord has appeared on my Iphone 4 screen. Frustrated isn't the word.
After installing latest version of Itunes, I connected my Iphone via USB and selcted yes to upgrade my Iphone, towards the end of the upgrade a notification popped up indicating that the upgrade had failed. Since then my Iphone just isn't responding, I've tried reinstalling Itunes, turning off Norton Security.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you Carolyn,
I've been through all those and apart from anything else, itunes is not seeing my phone, I therefore cannot restore the phone.
Have tried deleting and reinstalling itunes in case something was missing there, though the fact the problem is on both my mac and my windows machine seems to me to suggest a phone problem..
Is it possible that the latest IOS update which I did a week or so ago was not completed correctly? If so could this cause the problem? And how can I correct it?
Many thanks
