Problems with wireless usb adapter on MSI K8NGM-V

Hi!
I have a 3Com (3crusb20075) wireless usb adapter, and a MSI K8NGM-V Mainboard. Very often the usb disconnects from the network and i have to reinsert it to work again. A friend of mine have the exact same adapter and that one fails too. He uses mine without problems. I therefore belive that this is a problem with the usb ports on my mainboard. Have anyone heard of anything like this? I wanted to try to update my bios but i don't have a floppy so msi live update wouldnt let me, and i could find the bios files on the msi webpage so i cant burn them on a bootable cd. Help please
(I trying turning of power save mode on the usb adapter, without any luck. Tested it in linux. Same result)

The ability to access the network, but not the Internet, typically indicates that the computer is not able to either find or negotiate with the DNS servers. The proper DNS servers would be provided by your ISP using DHCP. In turn, the AirPort would use DHCP to provide these to both the wired & wireless computers connected to it.
Please try the following:
For each PC that is unable to access the Internet, temporarily include the following OpenDNS servers:
o Primary: 208.67.222.222
o Secondary: 208.67.220.220
You would enter these in the network TCP/IP settings for the respective PC's wireless network adapters. You may need to restart the computer in order for these DNS settings to "stick." After restarting, can you access the Internet with either or both of them?

  • Having connection issues with wireless usb adapter

    During the day when I'm just surfing the web or watching shows on hulu.com or using NHL game center live my adapter doesn't have any problems staying connected. But at night when I let my torrent client run my, adapter will disconnect and I will have to re-connect to the router manually to fix it.
    Is this a problem with my adapter or the torrent client settings? Would a different adapter, either usb or pci-express, fix this problem?
    Let me know if you need any more info.
    Thanks for any help.

    Hi
    I'm having the exact same problem .... exporting photos from iphoto to Facebook had worked perfectly fine for years, then I tried to export some photographs just a couple of days ago and I get the same problems as the Original Poster.
    I'm on Snow Leopard (OSX 10.6), iphoto 6 v6.06.
    I've tried updating my Adobe Flash player, to no avail.
    I'm pleased that other people are experiencing the same problems, but it's a mystery as to why it's suddenly stopped working.
    When I was in work I was able to upload photos to Facebook that were saved on my desktop no problem - work uses Windows.  But I'm unable to even go to Facebook, click on Create an Album and take it from there ... when I click on Create an Album nothing seems to happen.
    I'm so frustrated.

  • Problem with my USB port in MSI MS-6534

    Hello everybody.
    I bought an external hard drive and when I connected it to the USB port appear a message that I don't have any port of high velocity and I need to install a controller or high velocity. I don't understant to much about that, but I bought my computer in 2001, and I thought I had USB 2.0 ports. My technical data are:
    name of motherboard: MSI MS-6534
    chipset: i845
    BIOS: Award Award Modular BIOS v6.00PG , DATE OF BIOS : 09/28/01
    I don't know if it is neccesary to update the drivers, or maybe the BIOS , I download the drivers that appear in the page of MS-6534, but i don't want to intall nothing because I am no sure. Please someone can tell me if I must install these drivers of some BIOS update?, of maybe my motherboard don't support USB 2.0 .and do you know if is  necessary to install the windows xp servipack 2?
    thank you in advance

    yes, you need SP2. Make sure you fully install Intel INF driver.

  • Problems with Wireless Router and Adapter

    I tried posting this in the wireless adapter forum but nobody responded :-(
    I'm using a WRT54G Router btw, and the firmware is v2.02.7, Feb. 27, 2004.
    Hi everyone,
    I have a Linksys Wireless G Router and several computers that I try to connect with. One of them is a computer running Windows XP and using a Linksys Wireless USB B Adapter (WUSB11). Another is a laptop running Mandriva Linux using a Linksys Instant Wireless Network PC Card (WPC11). Another one is running Windows Vista and using a Linksys Wireless N card. I also have a laptop running Windows XP using a Linksys Wireless-G Notebook Adapter (WPC54G).  I also have another PC running Windows XP and uses a Linksys Wireless USB Adapter WUSB54G. Finally, I have two macintosh laptops running OSX and with airport devices installed.
    Anyway, I have problems with my internet connection frequently being interrupted and even sometimes I won't have a connection at all for hours. This occurs with my Linux laptop, the PC with the Wireless B Adapter, and the laptop using the Wireless G Notebook Adapter. In addition to this, the macintosh laptops have internet even more infrequently. However, I seem to never have a problem with the Windows Vista desktop or the Windows XP desktop that has the Wireless G adapter. I try repairing the connection and often it does not work. I have also tried resetting the router and the cable modem. I'm not sure what else I can do. I even bought a Wireless N router and had little success with that. We even went as far as moving the wireless router upstairs into our living room, thinking that the signal was somehow suffering from interference or that distance was a factor. Anyway, sorry for the long post but I could really use some help!
    Thanks.

    Hi… logon to wireless N router’s setup page, open I.E. an in the address bar type 192.168.1.1 it would ask for username and password, put "admin" as a paassword (default password) without any username...linksys setup pops up, click on on wireless tab and and try changing radio band to wide 40MHz, wide channel to 9 and wireless standard channel to 1 or 11, go to advanced wireless settings reduce beacon interval to 50, fragmentation and RTS threshold to 2304, change N Transmission rate to 270 MBps…also try upgrading latest firmware on router, check whether it makes any difference or not and let me know.

    I have an iMac without an airport card. I am trying to find a thrid party solution. Does anyone know of a third party wireless usb adapter that works with my Mac?
    Linda

    Hi Bill I noticed that list you posted mainly shows devices that require purchasing 3rd party drivers from companies such as ioxperts.
    If you use a device that has ralink chipset you can use their drivers free of charge.

  • How to get an N wireless USB adapter to transfer data faster that 54 Mbps

    How to get an N wireless USB adapter to transfer data faster that 54 Mbps? I am running FIOS 10/2 and connected to a ActionTec  M1424WR router. Any help will be appreciated.

    I have to ask the question, why are you in need of 802.11N speeds?  Are you transferring lots of files between other PC's on your network or are you simply connecting to the Internet.  
    Remember if your Internet speed is 10/2 which means 10 meg down and 2 meg up having 300 meg capability WLAN connection will not be noticeable.   Your bottleneck is your Internet connection of 10/2.

  • Problems with the USB Ports

    Hi there,
    I writing this because I'm having some really big problems with my USB ports.
    A few days ago I plugged in an USB-Hub that was quite cheap. Suddenly a window popped up saying that a USB device was deactivated because it "needed" to much power. Since this happening, two of those windows keep popping up everytime I boot the MacBook. I called Apple and got some help: I had to delete some .plist files and clear some caches. The man who helped was able to find the error and deactivate the notification, he also told me to make a PRAM- and a SMC-reset. The man said that it's just a software problem and that I have to reinstall the system if we don't find a solution. So, one day later I reinstalled the system (Lion) and not only didn't it help, the two notification windows were popping up again...everytime I booted the Mac. So I decided to formate the whole hard drive and install Snow Leopard -> still the problem with the USB ports. After that I installed Lion  -> still the problem with the USB ports. I even tried to extract the .kext files that are important for the USB functionality from an earlier Combo Update, but it didn't help either. The point is, that the Mac doesn't recognize my external hard drive or any of my iDevices. Sometimes it recognizes USB sticks, but only after 20 seconds. The data transfer on both USB ports is also very slow. If I'm lucky and Mac recognizes one of my USB sticks, it takes like an hour for 1GB to be transfered on the USB stick or from the USB sticks to the Mac.
    I really don't know what to do and need help, especially because my backup data is on my external hard drive which I can't access because of this problem.
    I really hope that someone can help me, I'm very thankful for every answer that could help me!
    PS: Sorry for my bad English, I hope that everyone understands what I mean, please tell me if you don't get what I'm trying to explain in the text above.
    Sincerely,
    iLoud
    [UPDATE] I downloaded "USB Prober" and copied the Output file, maybe it helps:

  • Problem with SB1240 USB sound card

    I'm pulling hair here! I've just bought a SB240. Windows (XP Pro, SP3) detected it and I can select it fine for listening. But when I open Sound and Audio Device Properties and select Sound Recording/Volume, I see the Capture panel with the three inputs, but all the controls are greyed out and immovable. I also use the application "Total Recorder" by High Criteria, in which I can select the SB240 device but the only input line it sees is SPDIF Interface.
    I'm stumped. Can anyone help?
    John?

    &Re: Problem with SB240 USB sound card
    Thank you. I did a complete uninstall, including the device itself (from Device Manager) as well as all drivers and any SB related software. As recommended by Creative, I had previously installed the driver software from the supplied CD and that seems to have been the problem.
    I let Windows re-detect the SB, but? got a "problem ... device may not work correctly.." during the detection, so I was not hopeful (this had not happened the first time I installed the device).
    Nevertheless it now does work fully and is properly configured in "Total Recorder" too.
    So I would suggest not using the supplied drivers and software - at least not in WinXP. But it's not very confidence inspiring.

  • Problems with wireless internet on Imac

    I have an IMAC since just over a year (MAC OS X vs. 10.6.6), and I have had over the last couple of months lots of problems with wireless connection.
    Sometimes it connects without problem, but mostly I have to follow a 'Diagnostic Info' process: I select Airport, then select the wireless network, then have to restart, and then all lights turn green. I can connect then and only after a minute the pages do not load anymore.
    Can anyone give me some troubleshooting tips ?

    You could also have look at this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2790214&tstart=0
    which has a couple of links I posted that may help troubleshoot your problem.
    Rick's suggestion at looking at changing channels seems to be a good starting point.

    This is the discussion area for Intel-based iMacs. Since you have an iMac G5 you probably want to make any future posts in the iMac G5 discussion area.

  • Huge problems with wireless, would need some help

    Sorry for the bad topic, and sorry for my english.
    And now the problem.
    I have just bought my first laptop, and got almost everything to play nice in arch, except the wireless.
    My card is a Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG (iwl3945), and i have a Dlink 524 router (abg).
    Using WAP, but can change this if its help.
    Right now I'am using NetworkManager (0.6.5-3 from rep) and KNetworkManager (from AUR), and it works very very bad.
    It can't connect at startup (or atleast it doesn't...), it takes several attempts to get a connection, it drops the connection and dont reconnect when it does, and so on. Its almost unusable and force me to use wired a connection just to be sure to be able to write this.
    After what i read in different forums and mailinglists, there seems to be a lot of problems with wireless at the moment?
    Anyone got this combination to work fine? Or are there any other way of configuration i should try? Suggestions?
    Thanks in advance!

    I've had a lot of problems with wireless networking for several weeks recently, ever since I upgraded vanilla kernel26 from v.2.6.22 to v.2.6.23 (see http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=40145).  I'm using the Windows driver bcmwl5 for the Broadcom 4311 chipset via Ndiswrapper, and I'm using WPA-PSK (TKIP) encryption.  I also use a D-Link DI-524 router.  What finally cured the problem was to install the new wicd (v.1.3.1) network manager which is now in extra and to set up all networking interfaces in that GUI, abandoning using Arch network profiles and all the detailed setup in /etc/rc.conf.
    My /etc/rc.conf now only contains (I'm only showing entries pertinent to networking)
    MODULES=(ndiswrapper capability sg acpi-cpufreq cpufreq_ondemand cpufreq_performance cpufreq_powersave)
    HOSTNAME="RFDellLT"
    DAEMONS=(syslog-ng @nfslock @nfsd @netfs @crond !network hal cpufreq portmap wicd sshd cups alsa @openntpd privoxy)
    i.e. no more INTERFACES, not even "lo", gateway, ROUTES, NET_Profiles.  Everything is set up through wicd.  You only need to put the wicd daemon in the DAEMONS array (after hal which also loads dbus), and the network daemon isn't needed anymore.  Also you should uninstall any other networkmanager.
    To put the wicd icon in the system tray, create a shell script (give it any name) in the .kde/Autostart/ directory in your home directory (if you use KDE, otherwise do the equivalent thing for any other DE/WM) that contains the command /usr/lib/wicd/tray.py.
    You may want to try wicd, perhaps it'll fix your problem.  It certainly has gotten good press in this forum.

  • When I updated to 10.4.10, had problems with wireless. Able to fix problem

    I have a mac mini G4 since Sep 06. I had no problems with wireless until I updated to 10.4.10. My problem was I could only connect to the internet for about 10 minutes then it would not respond. I had to turn off airport then turn it back on then it would work for about 10 more minutes. I have AT&T DSL, speed stream 4100 modem, and D Link 524 router. I went to D Link web site and found out when I use encryption WEP,WPA,ETC. it has to be hexadecimal key with dollar sign ($) before the hex key (Apple computers only). Before the update, I only used password with no problems for about 9 months. Instead of using a password use 64 bit encryption its 10 hexadecimal key or 128 bit encryption its 26 hexadecimal key. Valid hexadecimal characters are 0-9 and A-F. Example of 64 bit key is $0123456789 instead of password. After I did this, I been on the internet for hours with no problems. I hope this info can help out.

    Take a look through some of the other threads in this forum. Almost 100% of Safari 3 trouble after the OS X 10.4.11 update is caused by third party plugins, extensions, and input managers. Check in these folders and report back what you have in them.
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins (this is the Library folder in the top level of your hard drive)
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins (this is the Library folder located in your Home (username) folder)
    /Library/Input Managers
    ~/Library/Input Managers
    Or if you know that you have installed some third party stuff along the way try un-installing them. Again, read some of the other threads here to see who the main suspects are. Once you know what is causing your trouble then, if you still want to use the third party plug-in, go to a site like [Version Tracker|www.versiontracker.com] and look for updated versions that work with Safari 3.
