Wireless Adapter Issues

So I originally bought a Netgear N150 a year or two back and it has always worked out for the box with any GNU/Linux Distribution until a few months ago.  After a kernel upgrade my connection became very inconsistent, I always received very low speeds (>1mbps), and constant time outs and packet loss.  I figured it was issues with the driver so I went ahead and installed ndiswrapper and installed the Windows drivers but the issue still persisted.  At this point I became a little frustrated and checked to see if the issue was still there while using it on my brothers Windows machine but it was fine.  I tried it on my laptop that runs Arch and still had the same issues as my desktop.  So I went ahead and booted into a Ubuntu LiveCD and it worked flawlessly.   I had spent about a week desperately trying different said solutions and searching but never came up with anything.
So I figured why not just a buy another since the N150 was pretty well obsolete so I bought the Asus N13(Not a big upgrade) since it got a lot of attention for working flawlessly on GNU/Linux.  Tried it out but still had the same issue.  Used ndiswrapper and tried all different Windows drivers that came with it, did everything I tried with the N150 but only had the same issue.  Works on Ubuntu and Windows but not with Arch, I also tried Crunchbang but still had the same issue.   I know this isn't an issue with the USB ports or hardware because I ran a Ubuntu LiveCD and both worked flawlessly.  Anybody have any ideas?
Here is what I get with dmesg

  • H520s Wireless adapter issues

    Okay, So I'm having some issues with my H520s. The wireless adapter has been quite dodgy for the past month or so, but after using lenovo rescue to get it back to 'original condition' it's completely stopped working. I've looked through device manager and there's no mention of a wireless adapter, and any attempt to install drivers has done nothing.
    Before this, I'd have to use the Network Tasks> Repair network (or simmilar) after every startup in order to get wireless working.
    I have no files on the computer I need to keep, so formatting it to fix it is fine. I just want my wireless back ;_;
    If you need any more information, please ask, and I'll get back to you as soon as I see it. Hope you can help ^^
    EDIT: Oh, also,
    Said computer is running Windows 8, preinstalled. (Listed as 'Win 8 MM' on the side, incase that means anything special)

    Hi llharry,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
       If your device manager is not showing your Wifi under device manager / Network adapters.
    It may be having issue with the driver and may show as Network Controller or unknown device with
     a yellow sign on it.
       If not then It may had been disabled inside BIOS.
    Try Booting into BIOS by shutting down the computer and turning it back On and tapping F1 .
      Once Inside BIOS look under Configuration TAB and or under Network setup
        Look for an option saying Wireless lan or Wireless adapter.
    Make sure it is enabled then save and exit.

  • GE60 0ND Wireless adapter issues

    My GE60 0ND keeps disconnecting from nternet and constantly keeps turning off my adapter and takes forever with troubleshooting to finally tun it back on..
    Randomly disconnects but tablet/phone are connected... Also having microsoft NET framework debugging issues with SCMII
    Really don't know what's happening...

    Hello StewartJR,
    What's your OS?
    SCM is used for Windows 8.
    S-bar is used for Windows 7.
    Did you mean your network adapter keeps turning off whenever you boot up? Or randomly turning off?
    It can be controlled by S-bar or Fn+F8 under Windows 7.
    Under Windows 8, you can use SCM, switch the airplane mode, or manually switch it in "PC Settings" -> "Wireless".
    Suggest you re-install your system and install the officially-released drivers from MSI website.

    BTW, GE60 0ND doesn't support Windows 8.1 if you are running it. Unpredictable behaviors may occur.

  • Issues with usb wireless adapter

    Hi
    Please excuse my ignorance.
    I have an imac (about 2 years old) with a built in airport card. I am trying to use a usb wireless adapter. It has a realtek rtl8187. we have a wifi network here that works with my pc using this adapter but i cant get it to work on the mac. You have to sling the adapter on the window sill but it picks it up fine.
    I have installed the supplied software (obviously the mac one!) and it installs the software and driver. After i have restarted, and plug the thing in, it tells me to turn on my wlan card on the supplied software?? It shows up in the listing on network settings as ethernet adapter ((null)). I cannot find any setting to turn on my wireless card, i thought that was airport?
    The airport picks up the network but the signal is too weak to connect, hence the adapter with a bit more guts....
    I have this beautiful mac, colecting dust and am having to use a pc!
    If i connect the usb adapter without installing the software, it constantly has a box popping up in network settings saying that an external device has changed settings! it doesnt stop doing it, until you delete the location...
    Can anyone help? I may be being thick and dont have a wlan card or something or airport will not allow me to use this thing. I only just started getting into macs when i moved to spain, where it has sat colecting dust for 3 months.
    I would appreciate any advice.
    Thanks

    TNHusker, welcome to the forum.
    Cisco makes a router that is good for two-story homes.  I have used it for several years.  My router / hotspot is on the second floor and my Blu-ray player and laptop are on the first floor.  Both work extremely well with the router.  They also make a USB, AM10, that works very nicely with a desktop without a wireless card.
    I have had a few problems with both, but have always been helped successfully by Cisco Customer Service.  They are very good.

  • Wireless Adapter (WUSB54G) Driver Issues

    My wireless adapter doesn't automatically connect to the internet. I went under devices and found that it was there but listed as unspecified. I right clicked and troubleshoot'd, but it only claimed to have reinstalled the drivers because there was no change and I still cannot connect to the internet. Help appreciated.

    Hi,
    This behavior occurs if the driver is corrupt or not compatible.
    I suggest that you download the latest driver from the computer manufacturer’s website, and reinstall the driver. However, if the driver is not indicated as a Windows 7 beta driver, but for Windows Vista, we could not ensure that it will work. In this case you may need to wait for the manufacturer to release compatible drivers.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Having Trouble Connecting To Xbox Live using my router and wireless adapter.

    Okay, so this is kinda long but I'll try and speed through. Recently I moved from my old place to a newer place (larger) and before, my old spot worked perfectly, no troubles. Now, eversince i got my internet cable service re-hooked up I've had problems. My internet is fine, that's not the problem. It's my xbox live for my 360. My cable guy pretty much set up my living room with the main router and not my studio office which I keep my 360 in. Instead he told me it would be much easier to just go out and buy a wireless adapter for my PC to recieve the signal from my living room off the main family computer. Well, went out and bought a $80.00 wireless adapter top of the line and it works perfectly, I get the internet really fast. Problem is, my 360 will not connect now. It always says DNS failed. Well here's the problem. I have a Linksys router in my studio office that sits on top of my PC that i have connected to the ethernet of my PC, then in the 2nd or 1st port i have my 360ethernet wire connected to my xbox360. Still it says DNS failed. Shouldn't my router be getting the signal from my Wireless adapter that it's receiving from the living room? It's connected through the same computer yet it doesnt connect. It finds my I address, and it finds the network adapter yet it always fails my DNS. I've tried evern switching the xbox360 ethernet to the main ethernet port on my pc and that just makes me fail the IP address test. I need help guys. My wireless adapter for the pc is a Belkin but my router is a linksys and not sure if the 360 just doesnt recognize it or not. Is there settings I'm missing or something? Please help!!!
    The Burninator...

    On your 360 if u getting an error msg DNS failed,you can login to your router setup page and go to status tab, not the Static DNS1 and DNS2 numbers and u can give a static dns to your 360. its will resolve ur issue.

  • Help: XP driver for 3000 G410 wireless adapter

    Hi All,
    My recently bought g410 came with Vistra (only) drivers CD, while I'm installing winXP instead. I downloaded drivers from Lenovo website and everything worked except the winXP driver for "wireless network adapter" (all 3 of them: Gemtek, 3xxx, & 4xxx), the adapter was simply not recognized.
    When I look at g410 spec, it says something like "Wireless Network Type: InviLink 802.11BG", does it mean that it is another type of wireless network driver those available on Lenovo's site? If so, where can I get this driver? Can someone help, please?
    Thanks,
    fitro
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Dear Silens,
    Have tried to install the vista driver for Gemtek, and YES, the wireless thing is working now! Thanks for the feedback.
    I notice that in the device manager, the device reads something like"Broadcom 802.11g" while from the specification, the wireless adapter should be 802.11bg (the letter "b" is missing from the description). I don't notice any performance issue though, however, would like to know if you have the same description as well?
    Dear Rex,
    I don't know how to start the system update software, do i need to download from any website?
    Thanks,

    Make sure that your wireless security is not set to WPA2. The XBOX 360 wireless adapter does not support it. You need to use WPA or WEP.

  • MiFi 2200 wireless connection issue

    I have similar issues as I have seen others post.
    I can access the internet if I direct connect the mifi 2200 direct to my laptop.
    The mifi 2200 does connect wirelessly but it has limited connectivity status and the internet is not accessible.
    The other oddity is whether I have the mifi 2200 directly connected thru the USB cable or wireless I am unable to connect to the device's IP address.
    I can't figure out if it is a device issue or configuration issue.
    I am presently waiting for tech support to call me back. 1.5 hours last night with tech support was no help.
    Techs suggestion: take your laptop and mifi 2200 to a Verizon store for help... uhh NO.
    Any body got any other suggestions while I wait for my call back?

    I'm having the same issue. I have two laptops ... one with Windows XP and the other with Windows 7. I tether the MiFi to my WIndows 7 box and it works. But when I make it a hotspot the Windows 7 box won't connect but the XP box will.
    What I have noticed in the admin of the MiFI is that  the Windows 7 box is connecting via ARP while XP connects via DHCP. So the IP address assigned to the Windows 7 box is outside of the MiFi's DHCP (192.168.1.24) range while the XP box is within the range (192.168.1.2).
    So if you are using Vista or Windows 7 we need to find a way to change the wireless adapter from connecting via ARP to DHCP. Or maybe increase the DHCP range of the MiFi device to include the ARP range.
    I'll test some more and send an update,

  • Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Device List Not Finding Windows 8 Wireless Adapter

    I recently upgraded my Wi-Fi router to an EA3500 and am controlling it using Smart Wi-Fi running on a wired Windows 7 machine.
    So far, I have been able to add devices to the network without issue and each of those connections works fine.  All, except my TV, have been Windows 7 based machines.  Smart Wi-Fi Device List has been able to "see" each device and I have been able to add them to that list as well.
    I am attempting to add a Windows 8 desktop computer to the network which is using a external USB wireless adapter.  That computer can see and connect to the network through the EA3500 and the connection seems to work fine.  The only issue is that its adapter does not show up in the Device List.
    My questions:
    1)  Does the Device List do anything else besides showing a list of devices I chosen to add to my network?
    2) How do I get my Windows 8 wireless adapter to show up in the Device List?
    Thanks In Adance!

    Try the following:
    1.       Disconnect the computer from the wireless network
    2.       Remove wireless network profile on your computer
    3.       Reboot the computer and power cycle the router
    4.       Reconnect to the wireless network
    5.       Check if the computer shows up on the device list.

  • Belkin wireless adapter F5D6050 keeps loosing settings when i first boot up

    I have to go into belkin wireless adapter setup everytime i reboot the machine.
    i am running 10.3.9 using the above adapter and it is doing my head in, any help would be gratefully apprieciated.

    Hi David White,
    Alternatively, after password recovery you can modify the configuration to be what you want, and then issue:
       write memory
    to save the configuration.  You can then verify that your changes have been saved to the startup config by issuing:
       show startup-config"
    The only good thing is that when I switch off a router it erase configuration except my new password which I created after password reset. Everything else is getting vanished (ADSL settings, DHCP, routing ) everything. Even new admin accounts I created.
    Well have a question to your above comments. I am new in Cisco so please put as much detail as you can for me to understand. When you say modify configuration do you mean to go to Cisco CP Express graphical interface and then connect router to hyper terminal and execute above commands?
    Why router doesn't remember this anyway. There must be some option to change in configuration to make thing permanent when I hit apply changes in Cisco CO Express otherwise it is pointless to heve it.
    Phillip
    write memory
    is
    copy running-config startup-config"
    Can't this be done via Cisco CP Express or set up router to copy this every time I change this in graphical interface rather going to command line to achnoledge it?
    I understand your concern about this router and somebodie's configuration details as you want things to be un-used when you buy them - true. ADSL details belongs to the shop which sold me the router so that is why I don't make a big problem about this. We take most of hardware from this shop and have discount and many good deals with them so I think they have been just testing it and forgot to erease their config. It might be that someone has returned router to the shop and they have repaired it and tested it.
    I hope this is a normal behaviour of this router as I have option to replace it in case this is a fault.
    Could you please write me step by step guide how can I make changed options stay permanently on router?
    thank you
