Sleep and Wireless network card

After waking from sleep the MacBook Pro is unable to connect to the internet. Network card is unable to get a signal and results in 169 address. Its ironic that to remidy this requires a reboot. So basicly sleep is not an option.
The router is a linksys wireless N. OS is Leopard. Other wireless devices do not suffer this problem.
Does anyone else experience this or is it something to do with the network card?

Disable the wireless network card upon connection.

Has anyone done the following, if so can you provide some insite on how to do it and how well it works....If wireless networking is not being used in the organization, it is possible for CSA to disable
the wireless network card when it is connected to the corporate network. I'm assuming by using the system
state variable with the rule, you can allow laptop users the ability to use wireless when they are
not connected to the corporate network.

I dont' see a system state "ethernet active" do I create this? I'm on CSA version 5.1.0.103. I have a system state called network which has the description of All users who are logged on via a network connection. Is that the same thing you mean? Then how do I create the rule? I get to where I have a NAC rule but I'm not for sure what to choose after that.

Alternative to Intel Wifi Link 5100 AGN wireless network card?

I'm finding that my Intel 5100 AGN wireless network card is not performing as well as it used to. I've tried everything... even drivers are fully up to date. But I keep losing connection to my wireless router, even though connection strength is between 3-4 bars. I find that I rarely get dropped if I have 5 bars. But if it weakens to 3, I get periodically dropped no matter what wireless network I am using.
I want to replace this card with something better, but of course compatible with the HP dv5 (my specific model is dv5t-1000). Any recommendations?

Hi, Gary:
What I meant by my statement regarding you having the better of the available cards for your notebook is that, yes, I am sure the Intel 5300 is an improvement over the 5100, but the problem is you can't install the 5300 in your notebook.
The Intel 5300 is not supported (only the cards/part numbers listed in the service manual can be installed) and your notebook wouldn't boot until you removed the card.
You can try a different card listed in the manual if you want.
However, you are limited to the:
Broadcom 4322 802.11a/b/g/n WLAN module
Broadcom BCM4312 802.11b/g WLAN module (not a wireless N card)
I suppose you can use an external USB adapter but I would get one with an external antenna connected to it, because I would have to believe the 3 antenna wire setup in your notebook has to provide superior reception over a plain USB wireless adapter with an internal antenna as its only antenna.
The antennas go all the way up to the top of your screen.
Did you fiddle around with your network card's advanced settings? They can be found by clicking on the card in the device manager, clicking on the advanced tab. make a note of where the settings are now so if something goes buggy, you can change them back.
Here is a guide to the advanced settings you have and the recommended settings for them.

Compaq C762nr wireless network card upgrade

I would like to replace the Atheros AR5007 wireless network card in my laptop with a compatible wireless-n card. Which cards are compatible? Thanks

The Intel® Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN mini PCIE module is compatible. The driver is available at the web support portal for your notebook.
Upon further research it appears that a different antenna setup is required for the Intel wifi Link 3945AGN module. It would require disassembling the display assembly and installing a different antenna setup.
The C700 series notebook is, unless modified only compatible with 802.11 A/B/G wireless adapters.
A simpler method to upgrade would be to use a USB wireless adapter with 802.11N capability. the C700 series notebook does not have ExpressCard nor PCMIA slots available to use for an alternative upgrade method.

DV6 wireless network card upgrade ?

I just bought a DV6 LM199UA#ABC and i was wondering if the wireless network card could be upgraded and if so, could I puchase it from HP?

Which card do you have? HP laptops will ony work with very specific wireless cards. There is a "whitelist" in the BIOS which means you must use a card that was offered on the laptop when new or the laptop will refuse to boot. So to see what you can use we need your specific model and the type of card in the laptop already to see if there is anything better available.

Wireless Network Card

When i bought my K8N NEO2 Plat. it came with the wireless network card bundled with it, ever since i have started using it i have had nothing but problems with it, it keeps dropping the connection every 10 mins or so and also does it when using or exiting a program which makes online gaming almost impossible, does anyone know what could be wrong.
BTW i am connecting to a another computer, i also have a laptop that uses another wireless access point and that never drops the connection

I have the same problem.
What I have realized is that moveing the antenna just a little bit helps a lot on the signal strength. I had my antenna on of my cabinet with LOW to VERY LOW signal. Moved the antenna to the floor, got GOOD to VERY GOOD signal.
However I have to say that the Wireless card that is included with the NEO 2 is a 2nd hand solution. I have tried with other PCI based Wireless cards. No problem with either the driver or the singal strength. So the conclusion must be that if you can afford it, buy a new Wireless card.
Infact both the onbaord audio and the Wireless solution on the NEO 2 is really of rahter poor quality. In my opinion MSI should never have included em in the package.

Which OS is installed in your desktop PC?
What are the capabilities of your wireless router? 802.11 A\B\G\N\AC ? 2.4GHz \ 5 GHz or both simultaneously?
My own preference is the current 802.11AC standard.
I use Windows 8.1 \ Windows 7 \ Linux on this desktop PC. I have a Sitecom 802.11AC router and an ASUS USB-AC56 wireless adapter. The throughput for video streaaming I am getting from the setup is around 533 mb/second. There isn't much currently available on the makrket in terms of reliable PCI express x1 wireless cards for Windows 8 or 8.1.

DHCP Server - Different Range for Wired and Wireless Network

We have DHCP setup on Windows Server 2012r2 and the range given to us by the main HQ is 10.65.112.1-10.65.112.254 (there are several exclusions under this range)
Now since the range gets exhausted quickly, they provided another one 10.65.122.1-10.65.122.254.
What our branch would love to do is to dedicate the first range for Wired Computers and the other range for Wireless Devices (Phone,Tablets, Mobiles)
Right now we have 2 different scopes setup in DHCP, the second one is disabled. In our network we have 6 access points and also have a CISCO SG300-52 Managed Switch. It has an inbuilt DHCP Server and also has the function for DHCP Relay. But we are not actually using any of its functionality as of now.
So my question is how to have 2 separate ranges for wired and wireless network. People have mentioned vlans but I have no clue on how to get that done.
Is there a simpler way avoding V-LANS or if not, would love to get step by step procedure on how to go about this. Any help will be much appreciated
Regards,
Sheldon

Hi Sheldon, please read this post
https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2270049
You will need some modifications though. Steps 1-6 is very relevant. On step 6, you need to pay particular close attention to the "default router". If the SX300 handles your intervlan routing then the default router needs to be the IP of your VLAN. If you have a different device to handle VLAN routing then the default router needs to be that IP address.

Officejet Pro L7780 Wired and wireless networking at same time

I have an officejet pro L7780 printer that I would like to use wired and wireless networking at the same time. It that possible. The printer is connected directly to the network by ethernet, but I would like to print wirelessly with an ipad or iphone using HP ePrint Home and Biz.
Thanks,
Maurice Hawley

The bad news: no it is not possible to have two connections active on your printer at once.
The good news: the router will connect any device to the printer regardless of how the printer or the devices are connected. So your iPad can print to a printer that is wired (with Ethernet) to your router.
If it does not work, restart your router by pulling its power plug momentarily.

Airport and Wireless network issues

I have read all the issues about airport and wireless network. I don't see the issues that I have. My issue is that my wireless network used to automatically connect as soon as I power up my powerbook; then one day I power up and I was connected to default and I did not see my wireless address listed. I when into airport setup to try and setup again and it would not let me saying my password was not right. I logged off and then on again this time my network address was listed, but it still would not connect automatically to the network, now everytime I go to the web I must pick my own network and put in a passwork that sometimes works and sometimes not.
I have not done any updates or put any new software on the powerbook, so this is not the reason for my problem.
Please Help!!!
Thank's
La Vern

Had this issue with our imac after upgrading to 10.4
The answer was to go into Network and select airport tab.
Listed there (for me) were three settings. Delete all of them ,they will probably include the actual network you want! Click to apply. Re-start the Mac.
Go back to network and airport and you should now see only the network you wish to join. It will ask for passwords again!!
Click apply and restart. It worked for me.

Problem with Skype and Wireless Networks

I have been having a problem with Airport for about 10 months. Long winded explanation follows.
Initially file transfers over wireless networks were extremely slow but this seems to have been that 10.5.2 update problem. There is a remaining issue when I use Skype on my Mac (details below) connected to a wireless network the incoming and outgoing audio drop out for 1 - 3 seconds at irregular but frequent intervals (approx every 5 - 10 seconds). This is regardless of the wireless network I am on - and that is dozens of them all over the world. Note it is voice only calls, not video. Apple has replaced the Airport card and the mother board; the OS has been reinstalled; test accounts set up but nothing fixes the problem.
At one point I had temporary relief by switching off 'Configure IPv6' in System Preferences/Network/Airport/TCP/IP. This worked for a month or so but now the problem is back as before.
All other aspects of wireless activity are fine. Wireless firmware is 1.4.4.
I have worn out my welcome with the usually sensational help desk. Any suggestions out there in Mac Land?

Hi there
Been a hectic week here getting this problem resolved. It is all OK now. Here is what we found and how it was done.
When Airport was playing up we set up an unlimited ping of the wireless router in the office. This is what it showed:

and so on.
After discussion with tech support they said the Airpot card had to be replaced. This was done with admirable expediency and I got the MBP back in 36 hours. On testing it the same problem was still there. Identical pattern on the ping test, the fault was not the hardware.
Once more a call to Apple and another tech. This time we booted from the OS 10.5 install disk and ran the ping test. I ran it for a few hours without seeing the fault, it worked fine. The problem had to be in the operating system.
After backing up all the data I zeroed the drive and did a clean install of the OS. Bingo! Problem gone.
So after 10 months, two airport cards and a mother board, the issue was in fact something corrupt deep in the OS.
So to anyone having similar problems with Airport, run a ping test as described above. If you see that kind of pattern, try a clean install before going down the hardware road.

Wired and wireless network setup

I have a small home network, wired right now. I would like to add a wireless access point for near future laptops. Can I add a second router that is wireless to my wired network with having to load router software on a second computer. Is this even possible. My network consists of my PC, HP M8300f desktop PC as home base/client and cable modem with linksys wired router, BEFSR41 connected to a dell 2400 desktop. I am wanting to add a linksys wireless router WRT54G some where in the living room for and access point. Do I have to load the software on the Dell PC or can I just plug in router to wall socket and connect wirelessly that way. Thanks for the help. Just thinking out side the box.
OS Vista Home Premium 32 bit
CPU AMD Athlon 64x2 6000+ 3.0ghz
Motherboard Asus M4N78 Pro
Memory 3Gb PC2-5300 DDR2 @ 667mhz

Hard Drives 640GB 7200rpm SATA (2x320)
Other Info Optical: Super Muliti DVD burner w/lightscribe, Hauppauge WinTV HVR-1800

You can add your WRT54g to your wired network without too much trouble if you follow a couple of simple steps:
Turn off the DHCP server in the wireless-router.
Create an unique wireless network name (aka SSID) and turn on WPA-PSK security.
Make sure the web-page IP address for the wireless-router is set to a unique value different from any of the other wireless devices on your network.
Connect the LAN port of the wireless-router to the LAN port of the Ethernet router. Do not connect to the wireless-router's WAN port.
This configures your wireless-router into a simple Access-Point and is the easiest way to extend your home network with wireless.

A very strange wired and wireless network issue

Hello,
I have never had any issue at all with my macbook (2008) until this week, I use it both for work and personal use.
Most of time, I'm used to be on customer site, so I use wired and wireless connections depending of the situation....
I have never had any issue at all with wifi neither ethernet connections during three years, until this week... and I can say this is the most strange thing I have ever seen....
Using wired or wireless connection, always the speed of network was really good, at home, many customers, etc never had any problem...
But this week I'm currently out of home, and the hotel where I'm staying I'm having very poor network rate....
Using wireless connection, the download speed is no more than 10kb.... and using ethernet I get less speed... but during the day I'm on customer site, using the ethernet connection and download speed is really good, more than 500k-800k....
I have already tried in the hotel few wifi connections (there are three) and differents wired connections (in diferent rooms) and the download speed is always the same, no more than 10kb...
During this afternoon, I could go into hotel's lab and could connect directly to the router using cable, same speed no more than 10kb....
The most strange thing is on their computers the download speed using wired connection is around 6Mb....
how is possible I'm getting no more than 10kb of download speed when the pc's at hotel using same wired connection gets 6Mb?
I have already deleted current network connections, execute onyx to clear everything, perform dhcp connection, tried manual ip etc, and always the results are the same...
I know there is no problem with the macbook, because it works pretty good at every location I've been... but until this week...
Sincerely I'm getting a little crazy here, I'll appreciate any help!!!
thanks in advance

I've seen something like this on my T400 when it was running Vista. Now that I use Win 7 it's been OK. I rather doubt that your issue is the same but I'm tossing it out here just on the off chance.
Im my case, I had to downgrade my Intel 5300 card to a 5100 (as suggested by a Lenovo 2nd-tier tech) to get things working.
My symptoms were a little different. Wifi was fine until I went back to a wired network. After that, trying to use the same wifi AP as before would end up associated, but no internet access. DHCP wasn't working. The GUI "find" app didn't work as expected either. Some APs showed up, and some didn't.
If I configured for automatic connection to my home AP it would try and fail. Just rebooting at that point would again attempt an automatic connection that would succeed.
What I have noticed now that I run Win 7 is that Access Connections is completely useless. Often the "finder" doesn't show an AP 3 feet away. I didn't notice that this happened after a switch from wired, but maybe.
Are you using Access Connections? If so, you might try uninstalling it.
Sorry I can't be of real help,
Z.
