Tecra A4: Wlan Intel 2200bg not stable with 802.11 G WLan

With the latest driver re-installed (9.0.4.39), I've found that a connection to a "g" network was unstable. (Slightly better than before re-installing, when it would connect to a "g" network but not pass any data.)
With both a BT Homehub and now a DLink DSL-2640R router (TalkTalk), I have found that one way to get a stable connection with the latest driver is to set the router to use only "b" networking. But this is slower.
Until I got a different router (recent change of telco provider) I had just assumed it was a BT Homehub problem (believe me, I had spent some time trying to resolve it!). However, now that I have tried two routers and found the same problem, I thought it might be an issue relating to the setup of the laptop...
I've kept the many wireless driver downloads that I've installed, and tried to think back to happy time when both laptop and homehub were happy to communicate on a "g" network. So I went back to driver version 9.0.4.17, and guess what, all the problems have gone away with the new router and it's happily connected to a "g" network.
Normally the advice is to use the latest driver version, so why would I have success with an older driver. What have I done wrong? I tried different types of encryption available and it hasn't affected the problem.
I've got the box ticked to allow windows to configure my network settings. I while ago I did try using the Proset Software, but that stopped the ConfigFree from running properly so I went back to the original set up.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I need to do to get a stable connection to a "g" network with an Intel 2200bg with the latest driver (9.0.4.39)? I'm wary that I may run into some other issues if I continue to use the older driver?

There are always compatibility issues with Wireless products, especially when connecting with different brands. Manufacturers are constantly updating the drivers to fix issues, but sometimes it can introduce problems with older Adapters such as the 2200BG.
First thing to do is update the firmware on your Router, then update the drivers on the Wireless Adapter. If later drivers don't work, it wont hurt to revert back to a previous version.
You can also try changing the Advanced settings in the Wireless Adapters Properties in Device Manager. For example, try setting it to "802.11g only", try a different channel, try different power settings, etc..

  • Intel 2200BG NOT Fixed with Drivers!!!

    I installed the Intel Pro/Wireless 2200BG mini PCI WLAN card into my Windows XP Pro SP2 Toshiba laptop (Toshiba Satellite 5205-S505). It will not access my Linksys BEFW11S4 v.2 Router!
    Specifically, it will not connect to this router with (128-bit) WEP turned on. It WILL if I turn WEP off. My Sony Viao has no issues connecting.
    I have installed the new 9.0.4.27 [1-19-07].
    PLEASE HELP!!!!Message Edited by Byrdman on 03-21-200709:30 PM

    Try rolling back the wireless drivers in the Windows Device Manager to the previous version.  My wife's laptop (Dell Inspiron 600m) has the Intel 2200BG wireless and she was also having trouble connecting to one Linksys wireless router, although the laptop would connect fine at her other offices (all with same wireless security settings -- not necessarily same hardware tho) and our Linksys router at home.
    She told me after rolling the drivers back a version she was then able to connect to this particular network that was giving her grief.

  • Aironet 1140N in mixed mode not working with 802.11b/g Clients

    I have a new Aironet 1140N Access point , the model is number AIR-AP1142N-A-K9, my main problem in that i have Nokia E71 smartphones on the network, but they cannot connect to the Network, the Access Point SSID is not showing on the List of Available Devices if i Scan using the Phone,
    All Laptops are runing Win 7 Pro and they connect quite ok, The phones (8 of them) at HotSpots connects without problems, the Spec says they are compatible with 802.11b/g and the Aironet Access point provides 802.11a/g/n.
    Since the phone has the 802.11g which is compatible with the Access Point, why cant it Pick it? the Access Point is Operating in Mixed Mode.
    Bonnie

    There are basically two "flavors" of WDS that the AirPorts support: static & dynamic.
    o A static WDS allows for a main, relay, and remote base stations in the configuration. This only operates in the 802.11g radio mode. Its advantage is it is well suited when you are trying to cover a considerable linear range ... like a rectangular house where the Internet connection comes in at one of the shorter sides and you want wireless at the other end. The biggest disadvantage of this type of WDS is that for every base station added, you lose half the overall bandwidth.
    o A dynamic WDS allows for only a single main and multiple remotes. Think of a wheel with the main at the center and the remotes as spokes of the wheel. The advantage of this type of WDS is it operates in the 802.11n radio mode and doesn't suffer a significant bandwidth loss like the static version.
    As a minimum, a dynamic WDS requires two 802.11n AirPorts (or Time Capsules). You can create a static WDS with either all 802.11g AirPorts or a mix of 802.11n & 802.11g AirPorts. Note; however, you cannot create a dynamic WDS with mixed mode base stations.

  • 990FX-GD80 and FX-8350 System not Stable with Default Settings - BSOD or Lockup

    Bios = 11.13
    Ram = Viper 3 Series, DDR3 32GB (4 x 8GB) 2133MHz Quad Kit 1.5v
    Video = Geforce GTX460
    Power Supply = Corsair TX850M
    OS = Windows 7 x64
    I had some issues setting up the OS initially and because the system drive was Raid 1, I needed to create a boot-able USB key to do the install.
    When I installed the OS, I had an AMD Phenom II 1090 installed and bios version was 11.12.
    I had a few BSODs during setup and after wards, but not too frequent.  I can't recall if I made many changes the bios at this time (possibly disabled C6 state and CoolnQuite).
    When I had purchase the FX8350, the bios was upgraded prior to install the CPU being installed.
    When the system booted, it failed during the windows experience index test.  Some times the test would crash at random points, or the system would freeze and even the
    occasionally BSOD when the test made it to the CPU performance index.
    I had tried the OC Gennie in the beginning too, but it did not work out.  The system would lockup while loading windows.
    Too bad.
    I decided to shut off all power saving features in the bios and after that I still had some issues with the the Windows Experience Index test.
    The system was much more stable when Turbo boost was disabled, but I still had the occasional lockup and BSOD under load (Fallout Vegas or Handbrake encoding media).
    With the CPU Core voltage set to auto, and power saving disabled, the core voltage would read 1.288v under no load
    and drop below 1.25 during the Windows Experience Index.
    I have manually set the CPU voltage in bios.  Currently it is at 1.328 and measures 1.304 when the system is not loaded.
    DDR3 Ram voltage is set to 1.58v and measures at 1.552.
    I am using Open Hardware Monitor to get this info.  You need to enable hidden voltages to view the DDR3 voltage which is labeled Voltage #3.
    Under load the CPU voltage drops to 1.288 and lower.
    When I have been running Windows Experience Index, the CPU only seems to hit 75% maximum usage
    during the CPU test while the CPU core voltage drops to 1.264.
    I would like to over clock the system but I am concerned now.  The mother board is rated at 140w for the CPU and the CPU is
    rated at 125W, and from what I have read, overclocking with this CPU would exceed the boards 140w rating.
    Because of the fluctuating CPU Core voltages (with power saving features disabled) , I thought that the motherboard may have a fault
    so sent it back to the vendor for replacement.  I now have a second board and it is performing the same as the first.
    Older systems I have owned usually just worked, an so I am wondering what others are experiencing with this combination of
    CPU and motherboard.  I am considering sending both CPU and motherboard back to vendor and switching to an Intel CPU.

    Improvement of what?
    If you want to know the voltages for sure, then take a volt-meter and measure them.
    The readings you see in software and BIOS are not much more then an indication at best.
    It's not an checked and verified precision reading.
    And yes, voltages fluctuate, if they don't your board is dead
    Anybody with electronic skills will tell you this.
    As for memory, you may want to read this: http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/amd_fx_8350_processor_review,3.html
    The CPU supports 1866 DDR3, but what they never tell is that this is with 2 ranks per channel, ergo 1 double sided stick of 2 single sided sticks.
    Have you tried running with 1333 or 1600? Because you have 4 large sticks it for sure can't do 2133 and I doubt it can sustain 1866.
    This is not a board problem but CPU limitation.

  • Yoga 2 Bluetooth not stable with 7260 AC card

    Hi everyone,
    I'm having a problem with my Microsoft Wireless Bluetooth 8000 presenter mouse staying connected via Bluetooth.  I have installed the latest Kona Wifi driver and the latest Bluetooth driver from the Lenovo site.  It's my opinion that these two drivers are not compatible. 
    The only way I have been able to keep both the wifi and the Bluetooth stable and not drop connections is to have the latest Kona driver for wifi and roll back the Bluetooth driver to the "generic Bluetooth driver" from 2006.  When I use the most recent Bluetooth driver it works initially but then it will be totally unresponsive after I sleep or restart the computer and I have to keep reinstalling the Bluetooth mouse to reconnect.  Crazy!
    I have all the Bluetooth, USB and Wifi energy setting turned off so the computer cannot put any of them to sleep to save power.
    On a side note, I also installed the Intel AC dual band version of the card. 
    I have noticed that I have lost my 5 Ghz wifi connection completely a couple of times in the last few days with both the Kona version of the wifi driver and with the driver direct from Intel's site.  Both appear to be the same driver.  The only way I am able to get my 5 Ghz back is to reboot the computer and bang - it's back. 
    The other interesting thing is I can have the laptop right next to my router and the it will go from 2 bars to 5 bars back and forth but when I monitor the connection with Inssider it does not show any signal drops or degradation of signal.  What the heck is going on with the windows wifi meter?
    I don't blame these issues on Lenovo and I understand that I now have a non-stock wifi card installed so I'm on my own.  I think there is an issue Intel not getting these drivers right with the windows 8.1 update.  Intel needs to get their crap together with their 7260 series of wifi cards.  Anyone know what the new MacBook pros are using for AC wifi cards?
    BTW - turning of Bluetooth is not a reasonable solution to fixing my problems.  Both should just work.  I'm curious if anyone else has found a good combination of Bluetooth  and wifi drivers who may also have installed the AC dual band version of the card.  I'm about 90 percent stable at this point but I just can't stand the idea of using a Bluetooth driver from 2006.
    Overall, the laptop is good.  The greasy looking track pad looks like hell already and the light bleed from the bottom of the screen is annoying.  High res is awesome for most things but almost un-useable for other older programs that won't scale right.  My wife is getting huge headaches trying to use a work program with miniature font.  When I remote desktop into my home server it is terribly small....break out the magnifying glass!
    Looking forward to the yellow update and hopefully some wifi/Bluetooth stability in the near future - I'm talking to you Intel.  Peace!

    I'm using a Logitec Bluetooth mouse and have problems.  I installed the Bluetooth drivers from the Lenovo web site.  When I click to open a window, the Bluetooth mouse becomes inoperable.  I can use the touch screen or the pad to move the cursor or windows.  The mouse will "go to sleep" and then re-activate after perhaps 20 seconds or so.
    No time to troubleshoot it right now, but has anyone tried new drivers from Intel for the wifi card or from Microsoft for Bluetooth?  All Lenovo drivers are dated October 16 I think.  The fact that it happens with a Logitec mouse susggests driver problems.
    Love the laptop, however !!

  • A30 and Intel 2200BG now working with Scotch tape!!

    I searched and read, and didn't believe what I read, but with the aid of a little sliver of Scotch tape over pins 11 and 13 I am up and running.
    For 3 weeks I have fought this one, Intel support have only replied once to tell me to download the latest SW version, which I had already told them I had.
    I mistakenly was under the impression that the pin assignment for Mini PCI cards had been agreed and was standard. So who is rocking the boat Intel or Toshiba? My initial impression is Intel as a search for "2200BG" throws up many cases of problems and not all Toshiba models.
    However I suggest anyone who is having problems with the 2200BG Mini PCI card try the high tech bit of scotch tape method first.
    BTW the wireless switch or the fn + F8 still does not work.

    Hi Alison
    The fact is that this Intel card is a part of Centrino concept and many notebook producers use this at own units. A few days ago I was I electronic store and I have looked into device manager of many notebooks (different manufacturers) and almost all of them have this card.
    The fact is that notebook producers can not do much. In my opinion Intel should test and check functionality at first. If you check Intel download page there are many newer drivers for this card and I believe that Intel try to make it better. We will see.

    I need to know this too.  I have a Lenovo X61 and we need CKIP.  I found only one Access Connections that would install on this laptop and it doesn't have CKIP. 
    I know that CKIP is considered "non-standard", or so I was told and that TKIP replaces that, but we need CKIP.

  • P10 - intel 2200BG - XP Home - my home WLAN

    I did a lot of research on that topic but i would appreciate the actual experience of people around here...
    I read that the switch a blue led won't work unless you strap pin #13 : true or not on the P10 ?
    But who cares for the switch and blue led anyway, as:
    - I will barely never turn the connection off.
    - If I need to, it can be done from the network connections control pannel and network activity can be checked at the bottom right just beside the clock.
    My real question is: does the 2200BG actualy work with the P10 without straping anything (considering I don't care for the switch and light) ?
    Do you have to install Intel software suite or just the driver ?
    I have used XP pro SP2 tools on for setting up the wifi connection without troubles a Dell D610 (WPA-PSK, netgear wg602 access-point): does anyone see any point to add any more software ?
    Thanks for input folks !
    ps: this is just for my home WLAN, the P10 will never be connected to a public wifi network

    Hi
    I dont see any reason why 2200BG wireless card should not work properly with your P10. If you want to have a right info about that just service partner can give you a proper answer.
    If you buy this card the driver will be delivered with it. After installation you can configure the WLAN connection using windows settings without installation of any Intel software (WLAN client). The configuration is very easy and if you need some help please writes again.

  • Firefox 4 is apparently not compatibile with MacOS 10.5.8 PPC since after downloading and trying to open a pop-up says it is not compatible with my system. This version is probably for MacOS 10.5 Intel users. Unless there's another reason?

    When Firefox 4 was proposed, I immediately checked the system requirements for Mac user:
    "MacOS 5
    MacOS 6"
    So I downloaded it, since my OS is 10.5.8 (PPC), I thought I was fine. When downloaded, the Firefox icon showed a Stop sign in the middle: maybe a new logo? But when trying to open it, a window popped up saying this version was not compatible with my system. Therefore, using Time Machine, I reverted back to Firefox 3.6.16.
    If this is the case, you should absolutely warn '''PPC''' users not to download Firefox 4. Your version is probably for '''Intel''' versions.
    Unless you come up with a fix, I won't be able to use Firefox 4 until I change computers, having updated my system to the last possible upgrade.

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
    If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
