Virtual wireless adapter

This adapter was not working so I uninstalled it rebooted computer and it didn't reload. Operating system windows 7 on a laptop. I need to download the software. Updates don't work either. It is a Broadcom virtual wireless adapter. I was not working before
so I uninstalled along with my Bluetooth personal area network adapter. The PAN adapter re-installed ok the other didn't

Hello Bobby Yeeraby,
Please explain a bit about the issue and the requirement to avoid misunderstanding.
Please correct me if I have misunderstanding:
1. Do you mean that you uninstall the PAN adapter and Broadcom virtual wireless adapter?
2. You can update the PAN adapter driver in device manger.
3. You can not install the Broadcom virtual wireless adapter driver in device manager.
Do you receive any error message when you install the Broadcom virtual wireless adapter driver?
Does the network function work normally when you can reinstall the Broadcom virtual wireless adapter?
Please go to the manufacturer website and update the network adapter driver and check.
Best regards,

Wireless Adapter Error 10 when CSM Support Disabled

After a motherboard replacement, my Thinkpad Yoga was returned with CSM Support enabled, causing a legacy bios and windows splash screen to appear.
I went into the bios and disabled CSM support to bring back the default black Lenovo boot up screen, but now when windows loads the Wireless Card reports an Error Code 10. I have tried updating to every driver and even refreshed windows to no avail.

I later disabled Broadcom Virtual Wireless Adapter and found that I could still use WiFi so I went on and upgraded to Windows 10 anyway. Broadcom Virtual Wireless Adapter does come off the list on Device Manger but I can still use WiFi regardless.

Please Help - CISCO VPN client disconnecting over wireless adapter

Hi,
I connect to my work network when at home using the CISCO VPN client. I have a wireless connection at home. My vpn conection had no problem until my laptop once dropped hitting the wireless card reader side on the floor. since then, my vpn disconnects after some time. And this also disconnects my wireless connection at home. When I am not connected to work through th eVPN, we have no problems with my wireless connection. But, when I need to work from home, my vpn keeps getting disconnected and throws me off my wireless conenction too everytime. Can someone please tell me how to check if anything is wrong with the laptop?

Ok lets see if we can clear somethings up.
Using wireless and VPN before the "Drop" was ok?
Using Wireless and no VPN after the "Drop" is fine?
Using Wireless and VPN after the "Drop" causes the wireless adapter to disconnect?
If this is correct probally the best thing to do is to remove the cisco VPN software and reinstall it.
It can't be anything to do with the "Drop" as using normal wireless is working fine you say.
and the Cisco VPN Adapter is Virtual.
Let me know how you get on.

AGN Virtual Network Adapter

Why does AGN Network adapter install and what does it do?
I had two icons in network connections:
1. AGN Virtual Network Adapter
2. Local Area Connection
I am connected to an adsl router and am able to connect OK.
I disabled the AGN Virtual network adapter and am still able to connect ok.

Sorry, let me further add I get the following messages from Access connections after the wireless connection fails....
Error code: 011
Veyify that the encryption settings (WEP/TKIS/AES) specified in this profile match those expected by the wireless network
and
Verify that the wireless adapter in your computer has not been restricted from accessing the radio channels being used by the wireless newtork.
and
The wireless network name (SSID) specified in this profile shares the same radio channel as another wireless network that is in range. To attempt to resolve this conflict, click repair.
None of these messages are helpful or should be the problem. I had been using wireless access on this laptop with the same router for several years before 'uprading' the dirver...that's when my problems started.

Airport extreme connecting with xbox 360 wireless adapter problems...help!!

Has anyone linked their xbox 360 wireless adapter to an Airport Extreme? I need help! Neither Apple nor Microsoft knew how to link the two devices. If anyone has successfully been able to make this work, your help will be much appreciated. Thanks guys

Yes - Mine works no problem. I have found that I have to unplug the Xbox360 wireless adaptor and plug it back in occasionally (if the green light is on everything is fine). Are you using the correct WPA Key?

Just boot camped mid-2012 MBP using Apple's BootCamp 5.1.5621. However, no wireless adapter is listed in device manager

[In Windows 8.1] When I access the Device Manager, it does not list my wireless adapter as one of the devices available. I have attempted to manually install the drivers from the BootCamp 5.1.5621 file.
I've spent several hours attempting to remedy this but have only found threads explaining how to solve the problem if the 802 adapter is already listed in the device manager.

I recently had some BT issue's in Win8 so I wrote a topic about this subject. Maybe you need to replace the Broadcom drivers as well.
Please have a look here:

2g Shuffle crashes wireless adapter

Hello,
I'm a dell machine with windows xp and whenever I plug in my new 2g shuffle I get an error message saying windows does not recognize my device and then it crashes my wireless internet connection. I am using a Linksys wireless adapter on my home machine. I moved my machine and hard wired and the shuffle worked like what you expect from all Apple products! I moved it back and reconnected to wireless plugged in the shuffle, same error message, wireless does not work and shuffle is not recognized by windows or itunes.
Any ideas?

Dell Windows XP 1g shuffle, 2g shuffle, 1g mini, 2 5g 60 gig video

After looking at another post I decided to try a powered usb hub, the shuffle works fine, no problems at all with any other devices using the usb ports. The shuffle works like it should, I just don't understand why that makes a difference, do I have a defective shuffle, is it using too much power from the usb port, should I exchange it?

WUSB54G - Wireless Adapter Causing BSOD

Here is one for the support team. I wanted to connect another PC iwas working on to the internet via my WUSB54G wireless adapter. This was a fresh install, but an old computer. At the point in the installation where the adapter is connected to the USB port, Windows keeps shutting down and giving me a blue screen. Any advice?

Did you try to install the adapter drivers and not the software ? If not you should try that...
Make sure you connect the adapter to a different USB Port(don't use the port to which it's already connected)...
Download the adapter drivers from here: http://home.cisco.com/en-us/wireless?referrer=www.linksysbycisco.com
Once you have downloaded the drivers you need to unzip the file...After you unzip the file you should un-install the adapter drivers/software from Programs menu...Connect the adapter to a different USB Port and reboot your computer...Once the computer is rebooted you should see a message "Found new Hardware"...Select the option Install it from a specific location and click Next, then select Include this location in Search and browse to the place where you have unzipped all the files and select the Driver folder and click O.k...Then click Next and it should install the adapter drivers...
NOTE : This installation doesn't install the software(Linksys Monitor)...
Once the Adapter is installed, Click on the Start button >>> Control Panel >>> Network Connections- Right click on the "Wireless Network Connection" icon and select "View Available Wireless Networks"- If you see your wireless network in the list, highlight it by 'single' clicking on it- Now click on the 'Connect' button below- If your wireless network is secured, it would ask you to provide the network key- Provide the wireless network key and confirm it again in the confirmation box and click "Connect". See if this corrects your problem...

Wireless adapter causing blue screen

Hello,About a month ago on my Lenovo Ideapad Z580, I was using the internet when it said I was no longer connected. When I tried troubleshooting, it reset the wireless connection adapter and gave me a blue screen. When it restarted and I tried troubleshootingt it again, it enabled the adapter and worked fine. Since that first time, this BSOD has happened every day, sometimes multiple times a day, but not everytime I am on the internet. I have tried doing a system restore at a few different points, but the restore always ends in an error. I checked at the driver for the wireless adapter is up to date. Please advise on what I can do to fix this problem. Thank you,Stephanie

The symptoms you describe could be symptomatic of a variety of things to include hardware/software issues, overheating caused by a failed processor fan, bad memory (RAM), failing or underpowered power supply, CPU overheating, motherboard, video card, faulty or unsigned device drivers, CMOS battery going bad, BIOS and firmware problems, dirty hardware components, programs hanging or unresponsive in the background, and even malware. If the computer is overheating, it usually begins to shutdown/restart on a more regular basis.
If the machine is only crashing at home after establishing a connection but not at work when establishing a connection, then its probably an issue with your network configuration or something (i.e. wireless adapter) causing a conflict and not a malware issue.
The DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL error is usually due to a bad driver or faulty/incompatible hardware or software. This error condition means that a kernel-mode process or driver tried to access a memory location to which it did not have permission, or at a kernel Interrupt ReQuest Level (IRQL) that was too high.

Pavilion G7 wireless adapter stopped working and now will no longer boot.

I bought a Pavilion G7 about 7 months ago.
After a couple of months, the wireless adapter stopped working, it just disappeared from the Device Manager (Win7 Home).
I reset the computer to factory settings and it fixed that problem.
One month after this, the wireless adapter problem returned, I tried to use system recovery to restore it to a previous point, no luck.
I closed the laptop after this, didn't turn it off.
Opened it up and decided to watch a video I had on there, I had to pause the video halfway through (used Windows media player). Came back to continue watching and the screen was black. No lightbar activity, just blackness.
I pressed a few buttons, nothing.
Decided to do a hard reset (hold the power button for 8 seconds) then I left it and turned it on again, the blank screen returned, no signs of life, no boot, no HDD activity, nothing. The caps lock button was on, the wireless light (of course) was orange.
What on Earth has gone wrong? What can I do to fix this?
Thanks.

Wireless adapter Z-Com XG-703A doesn't work with WPA after reboot

Hello everybody,
Arch doesn't load kernel module arc4 during boot with usb wireless adapter Z-Com XG-703A. So WPA doesn't work and It can connect to only opened access points.
I found two work arounds but I don't know how to fix the issue completely.
1. Remove usb adapter and plug it in again (it causes arc4 module to load), then restart networking.
2. rmmod p54usb, rmmod p54common, modprobe arc4, modprobe p54usb and after that restart networking.
Could anybody help to fix the problem generally?

Does the p54common get loaded again as well when you do modprobep54usb?
If not, you might just put that into modprobe.conf blacklist.
If it does get loaded as well, there might be another wireless module getting loaded that perhaps does cause problems. You can check that with
mkinitcpio -v
now, or with lsmod after a reboot before your workaround.

Can I use a USB wireless adapter with my iMac G4 Flat Panel (it has no Airport card).

I have just salvaged an iMac G4 15-inch Flat Panel from the skip and now have it running Mac OS X Tiger 10,4. It has a 700mhz cpu, 80Gb hard drive and 512mb of Ram. No airport card is fitted so I was wondering if a USB wireless adapter could be used instead. I have a Belkin F5D8055ea USB wireless adapter fitted and the system recognises the device, this is as far as I have got as I am a complete novice on Apple/Mac machines. Anyone any ideas please?

If the device is recognised, see if you can located your wi-fi network using Airport Utility.

Xbox 360 wireless adapter wont connect to Airport Express/cant find ip

i have a time warner modem with the ethernet cable plugged into my airport express to create a wireless network in my house. my macbook and dell connect with no prob.
the xb recognizes the airport express, shows it as connected with green bars, but when i try to log into xbox online, it says that there is no connection.
i can plug in the ethernet cable from the xb to the airport ex and there is no problem. only when trying to use the wireless adapter.
how can i stop this? also, how can i find my IP address?
since the xb wouldnt connect and find my ip automatically, i tried to do it manually. when i go to terminal on my macbook and enter "ipconfig e0", i dont see an IP address.
i have seen a lot of info on this but it mainly deals with airport extreme or those who are trying to connect to airport express with an ethernet cable.
so if you can help me troubleshoot the wireless connection between my xb and my airport ex OR explain how i can find my IP address, i would be very grateful.
FYI---the airport express was purchased in april, so i believe it is the new "n" model.
thanks for all your help.

Gary Sanborn, please share your tricks. I'm curious to know how you got it to work. I used to have the old Express and that worked just fine. The new version (n) doesn't seem to connect to xbox live. As previously stated, mine also shows "connected" and a strong green bar signal on the xbox but the text can't get passed "connected to live"... if I'm not mistaken.
I heard about holding down the option button white selected the type of wireless connection and connecting to wireless b only. I would want to avoid this option. I don't want my express to run that slow. Please advice. Thanks in advance.
By the way, I haven't tried it since recently upgrading to OS X 10.5.3. I wasn't sure if that affected airport's connectivity with xbox 360.

Does the Xbox 360 wireless adapter even work with the WRT54G wireless router?!!? If so, how???

I just bought a WRT54G wireless router (Ver 8.0; firmware updated to latest). I have successfully connected my wireless laptop using WEP security, but I'm at wits end trying to get the Xbox 360 wireless adapter to work. (It worked just fine with my Netgear router until that router recently died.)
When I do the "Test Media Connection" routine (you XBox 360 users know what I'm referring to), the Xbox immediately recognizes the Network Adapter and indicates that it is connected to the Wireless Network, but it inevitably fails the next step in the process: IP Address. I have the set-up for the IP address to be assigned automatically by the router (which is set for DHCP Server enabled).
I have gone around the mountain innumerable times myself and then with well-meaning friends who say try this, try that, try this, try that. I've had to re-establish my laptop set-up so many times I wanna scream!
Are the Xbox 360 wireless adapter and the WRT54G even compatible? If so, what am I missing here? I'm not too technical and obviously in over my head, but this ought not be that hard.
Please, please do NOT respond unless you KNOW the answer! I don't mean to be curt, but I'm over / past "suggestions to try."
Thank you VERY much for your time and consideration if you can help me.

I don't think that the X-BOX adapter is not compatible to wireless rotuer .... there are few settings you can try on the router ... Access router setup page ... Please click on the tab "Application and gaming" and click on sub tab "Port range forwarding" 1) On the first line in Application box type in "Xbox", in start box type in 88, in end box type in 88, in protocol keep it both, in ip address type in 192.168.1.20 and give a check mark on enable box. 2) On the second line in Application box type in "Xbox", in start box type in 3074, in end box type in 3074, in protocol keep it both, in ip address type in 192.168.1.20 and give a check mark on enable box. 3) Now save the settings 4) Once you return to the setup page, click on the tab "Administration" and disable the UPNP and save the settings. 5) Now assign the given ip address on your xbox ip address :- 192.168.1.20 subnet mask :- 255.255.255.0 default gateway :- 192.168.1.1 Please assign the dns address on the xbox primary dns :- 4.2.2.2 secondary dns :- 192.168.1.1 6) Please try to test your xbox live. Hope it works ...

Virtual Network Adapter (vEthernet) unauthenticated

Hi,
I have a problem, with configuring a Virtual Network Adapter on SC VMM.
I created a logical switch with two physical network adapter (team) and add a virtual network adapter to the logical switch. After that a virtual network adapter will be created on the hyper-v host, but with the status "domain.local (unauthenticated).
With another hyper-v host it work without problems.
I tried to remove and recreate all that stuff but without success.
Do someone know that problem? Or can help to find a solution?
Thank you for the help.
Br,
Andi

Hi Sir,
I searched for this issue but it seems none fits your case :

Did you try to manually configure teaming on that hyper-v host , still same result ?
