WRT610N wireless keeps disconnecting + Need Firmware info?

My Linksys WRT610N recently started having the issue of continuosly disconnecting the wireless connection every 30 seconds or so. I did a power recycle but that did not help.
The router's firmware version is 2.00.00 B50 . I tried searching for the latest firmware on the linksys site but I get to is 88MB download package for installation which doesn't even indicate if the Firmware file is part of the package and what the firmware version is in the package. I'm not sure why it is difficult to find this very simple inforation.
If anyone can point me to solution for the constant wireless disconnections and also what the latest firmware is for the WRT610N and whare I can find it, I would really appreciate it.

Firmware in the downloads tab of the below link:

Wireless keeps disconnecting

I have an old Portege M200 tablet laptop using Windows XP that has the intel(R) pro/wireless 2200BG wireless connection that was communicating fine with my old Linksys wireless-g router. I recently replaced the wireless router to a NetGear WNR1000v2 and now the Portege won't stay connected.
I have dealt with NetGear tech support which solves the problem temporarily - it will connect for a few minutes, then it disconnects, connects, disconnects and finally stays disconnected. When I hardwire the laptop to the router, there is no problem. NetGEar says it's a problem with the laptop. Toshiba wants me to pay for support since my laptop is out of warranty. I have a desktop(XP) and another newer laptop (Windows 7) that have no problems whatsoever connecting to the routerr. It's just the Portege with the problem. I've tried disabling the firewall, changing settings with the router, etc. Nothing is working.
Anyone have any ideas?

Assuming you have the base model Portege M200, , here's your model's download page:
Portege M200
But, make sure that is your full model number!
You say you worked with Netgear tech support, but did they make you, or have you installed the latest firmware update for your router:
Netgear WNR1000v2 Firmware V1.1.2.28
As well, make sure you have the most recent Toshiba BIOS update, as there were several for your unit:
ACPI Flash BIOS version 1.80 for Portege M200
Still not working? I'd uninstall the Toshiba ConfigFree Utility in 'Control Panel - Programs and Features' and then completely uninstall your WiFi driver.
To completely uninstall a driver in Windows 7 see here, I'd stick with Method 1, especially if you've never edited the registry before:
http://www.petri.co.il/removing-old-drivers-from-vista-and-windows7.htm
After completely uninstalling the utility and driver, I would then run some registry cleaning program like CCleaner, then reboot.
Finally, try to reinstall the WiFi driver again:
Intel Wi-Fi 2915ABG and 2200BG Driver for Windows XP
Then reinstall ConfigFree:
Toshiba ConfigFree Utility for Windows XP/SP2
Good luck! Let us know if it works.

Soundblaster Wireless keeps disconnecting

Hi!
I just received my Soundblaster Wireless usb transmitter and receiver. Everything works nicely but the connection shuts down after a minute or so. If I click conncet from the Entertainment console or from the transmitter, the connection comes on again, but disconnects after a minute.
The transmitter and the receiver are about 3 meter away and in a line of sight between each other. I have auto-updated the software and tried auto and all three different channels.
Edit: I installed the latest Windows 7 drivers and nothing. It always plays for :28 and disconnects. Tried with the latest Media Player and Spotify.
Where is the problem?

Hi
>I read on the Toshiba website that it does that to save power, so I changed the network adaptor settings so it doesn't turn off when running on battery
Where did you change these settings? In Vista/Win7 power management?
Please note that such settings can be changed there too.
Additionally its recommended to update the WLan driver and checking if the BIOS is up to date.
WLan driver can be downloaded here:

Wireless keeps disconnecting periodically

My wi-fi disconnects about once every 30 minutes, and then reconnects automatically after 10-20 seconds.
I can reconnect faster if I do it manually (click on the icon and so on).
Anyone have any solution to this?
Will Apple Care help me if I call them with this problem?

Just like to add my findings. I have this issue as well. running Xp sp2 on a Penry MBP with the Broadcom 802.11n Network Adapter. Driver 4.170.25.12.
From what Ive gathered it makes no difference what version of windows you have. If you got this Card with the latest driver (though vista has a newer one) you'll experience disconnecting.
This disconnecting only happens once the driver causes sound stuttering/system slow downs for myself. once that has happened, it is almost inevitable that the wireless connection will soon disconnect.
Also, there has been reports that disabling the wireless adapter causes Lock-ups. this is true for myself ONLY when the sound stuttering happens. So a fresh reboot solves this for a short while, allowing you to disable the adapter (which is unacceptable).
I mostly use my XP partition for various online games, so once i hear sound stutters i generally just restart and its fixed for the time being.
Also, in regards to system performance and sound stuttering. This problem will not happen at all, if the wireless card has been disabled before the symptoms above occur.
What to do now? Just wait for new Drivers. It should be blatantly obvious that these Broadcom adapter have way out dated drivers, 9-20-07, Way to old for my tastes.

Wireless Keeps Disconnecting

Hi,
I have had my MBP 15" 2.8 since June and Wireless has worked 100% no issues until I updated with the AirPort Client Update 2009-002
Now My wireless drops at random times, and the only way to restore is to turn airport off and back on again..
Its not my router as my Windows PC and iPhone are happily surfing.
Any ideas if I can roll back or remove that update?
This is my first Mac so not sure about the updates etc.

Dropped signals can be a result of many things however if your other devices are working OK then I would start with changing the DNS settings. Here is what you do:
1. System preferences
2. Network
3. Click Advanced
4. Click DNS tab
5. Click + sign
6. Add 208.67.222.222
7. Click + sign
8. Add 208.67.220.220
9. Click OK.
10. Exit System Preferences
11. Try out your MacBook Pro and report what happened.

FIOS and Wireless Connection Disconnecting

I now have Verizon FIOS and only on my MacBook Pro the wireless keeps disconnecting after 5 minutes of inactivity. I tried testing connectivity on a Windows laptop and on an iPad and there are no issues. I called VZ and they said this is an Apple Macbook issue as they ran diagnostics and all the tests and configurations were all set correctly. Does anyone else have this issue and is there any solution?
Thanks.

so I just got the blazing fast Fios last week and love everything about it except about 50% of the time I need to restart my laptop (which is hooked up wireless) in order to connect. When I initially connect it shows that it is connected but cannot receive anything in a browser. The remedy is a restart. but I only need to do this about 50% of the time.
Interestly, If I am having problems and cannot connect I can still receive a skype ping (but cannot browse to any pages using FF or IE)
I called tech support and they were very nice but did not solve.
Anyone else with this?

Sounds like an issue on your laptop. Can you ping anything outbound? It sound like the DNS on your laptop is not connecting properly, or the network arp cache is hosed. If you're using XP or Vista you should be able to "repair" the network connection without having to restart the laptop -- this is essentially what a restart will do for you relative to network issues without having to restart. Right click on the network icon in the right toolbar area and select Diagnose and Repair.

WRT610N wireless needs reboot

I have a WRT610N V1 w/ the latest firmware Ver.1.00.03.15. The wired connection works great so far. The wireless connection works well also, that is, when I can connect. The problem is that I have to reboot the router every couple of days to be able to connect to it wirelessly. Once connected, it works fine. But if I disconnect and come back the next day, chances are I have to wire up and reboot the router. Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks.

As you already have a latest firmware installed on your Router, Have you tried to reset your Router and re-configured all the settings back on your Router from the scratch?
On your Router setup page, click on the Wireless Tab and under 2.4GHz Wireless Settings change the Radio Band to Standard- 20Mhz Channel, and below change the Standard Channel to 11 and click on Save Settings.
Once you are back to the same page, Then you need to click on the Sub tab under Wireless "Advance Wireless Settings" and under 2.4GHz Wireless Settings Change the Beacon Interval to 75 >>Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
Now try to connect to your Wireless Network and check if you are facing the Same Problem.

Time capsule keeps disconnecting intermittently. I have reverted to an earlier firmware (7.6.1) but I am still having an issue. Any suggestions?

My time capsule keeps disconnecting intermittently. I have reverted to an earlier firmware version (7.6.1) but this has not solved the problem. Any suggestions?

Disconnecting what?
Wireless?
Internet?
Local lan? Hard disk in the TC?
Pray be specific.
When it is disconnected how do you fix it?
If the computer is plugged in by ethernet and wireless turned off, does the problem stop?
There is a bug .. well several really in the networking of Mountain Lion.. which seems to be worse with the TC.
It will lose access to the hard disk on regular basis. and it is just that .. a bug.. a reboot of the TC fixes it.
Did you use all very short names for TC.. wireless and disk name?
Is the issue with Time Machine? Or what and how are you using the computer that causes the problem.
Pondini has listed several solutions or work arounds for TM. See C section of his KB. on troubleshooting.

Wireless keyboard keeps disconnecting and reconnecting

My Wireless Keyboard keeps disconnecting and reconnecting and typing by it self!! any ideas?

Hi,
Yes believe it or not my problem was caused by the keyboard being too close to the iMac display, the bluetooth was infering with the other radio signals coming from the antenna, it needs to be at least 1ft away from the display (30cm) to prevent this (this won't help those of you with small computer tables/desks)
Hope this works for you....

Wireless router keeps disconnecting...

Hello there,
I own a Linksys Wireless Router (BERW11S4). I recently updated it's firmware to the latest version (1.52.02) which supports WPA-PSK (TKIP).
I have set the group renewal interval of 7200 seconds, which is the max the software will accept.
My problem is after a certain period, it keeps disconnecting, which i believe is because of the group renewal interval, which can't be turned off. How do I eliminate this problem as it is really annoying to keep re-connecting half-way everytime?
Thanks in advance.

still disconnecting every hour and then...
please help. im so frustrated.
any other settings i should try?
or solution?
help me out 300N users!

NEED HELP! Modem keeps disconnecting w/K7T266 Pro & WinXP

My system:
K7T266 Pro
Athlon 1333MH
256Mb DDR 2100
MSI GeForce 2 MX, 32Mb
Zoom V.92 internal modem
SB Live! 5.1
2 x 80Gb Maxtor HD
LiteOn 16x12x40 CD-RW
USB mouse
340 W Enlight Power Supply
This system worked fine on the internet when I was running Win98. I upgraded to WinXP and now the modem keeps disconnecting shortly after connecting (but it always connects for a short period of time).
Here's what I have tried: Reloaded WinXP Home Edition on a newly formatted HD using a clean install (not an upgrade) and the NT file system. Loaded the latest MSI 4-in-1 drivers and upgraded Bios to latest version (v1.9). Reloaded all the software. Got all the latest XP drivers and WinXP updates. Have tried 4 different brands of modems, internal and external. Have tried modems in different PCI slots (currently using PCI slot 3 with SB in slot 4). Have tried modem on different Com ports (currently using Com 3). Have tried slowing down the com port speed. There is no IRQ sharing with the modem. Have tried different phone jacks and cords (the same ones that work fine on the older HP Win98 computer I am writing this on). Have tried 2 different ISPs (currently using CompuServe). Have reloaded the ISP software several times (trying different versions) and currently have their latest XP version - ISP says others are not having this problem with their software (have spent hours with their technical help with no resolution). Not using any ad blocker or anti-virus software (yet).
Nothing I have tried has made any difference so far. Am I missing something? I don't want to go back to Win98!
Oh ya, another minor annoyance: My system freezes after sitting idle for a while, even though the Windows power scheme is set to Always On and no screensaver. Otherwise, everything else works fine.

Hello everyone,
I was gone for a few days, but when I got home I was very happy to see some more posts to this thread!!
Last night I tried disabling the SoundBlaster (with the Windows System Device Manager). I disabled both the sound card and the game port. The modem was still disconnecting.
Until now I hadn't heard of Via chipsets and SoundBlasters not getting along well with each other either. I had, however, previously tried another sound card - it was an older Diamond Monster card I had, but I couldn't find a WinXP driver for it. It didn't work well at all with WinXP. So back to the SoundBlaster Live! 5.1.
I did find a cure for the other problem I mentioned. I noticed that the SoundBlaster and all 3 USB controllers were sharing IRQ 10. I removed the USB optical mouse and tried a PS2 ball mouse. That solved the problem where the system was freezing after sitting idle for a while. I sure liked the optical mouse better though. This same problem may have been related to another one I noticed. When playing audio CDs, sometimes the sound would stop momentarily and then go on again. I haven't yet had a chance to see if removing the USB mouse solved that problem as well. I have also noticed that the volume of audio CDs are controlled by the wave volume and not the CD volume. Is this normal? I have both the analog and digital cables connected and the CD digital setting enabled. It's very annoying, since turning the volume up on audio CDs causes the Windows wave sounds to blast me out when they play. I don't know how to set the SoundBlaster to use one of the other unused IRQs - can anyone tell me how to?
I haven't yet tried the PCI latency patches, because I wasn't too hopeful after seeing that it didn't work for Philipponnat.
Now for the Bios. I have always had my Primary Graphics Adapter setting on AGP. The onboard modem and audio settings have always been set to disabled. I was excited to see that Philipponnat found a cure for the modem disconnections with the PCI latency setting. When I went to my computer to do the same thing, I was disapointed to find that my Bios does not have a setting by that name, either in the PNP/PCI configuration or anywhere else. The only thing I found that looked related was one called "PCI Delay Transaction" in the Advanced Chipset Features section, but the only settings available are enabled or disabled. Mine was set to disabled, but I couldn't tell any difference when I set it to enabled. Maybe we have different boards - mine is version 1, but I have flashed the Bios to the latest version I found, v1.9.
I have noticed another strange thing in the Bios. The Bios no longer detects the power supply fan speed - it always reads zero RPM in Bios even though the lead is hooked up. The other fans show a reading. The power supply fan used to show a reading when I first put the computer together.
I also have S.M.A.R.T. enabled. I have 2 identical hard drives. They are Maxtor 80Gb 7200RPM ATA133 drives which are S.M.A.R.T. capable. Only the primary drive (master on the primary IDE) displays S.M.A.R.T values in SpeedFan. The other drive is set as a slave on the secondary IDE (my CD-R-RW is set as the master on the secondary IDE).
There have sure been a lot of wierd things about this motherboard. Thank you everyone for your input so far. Still need more help!!
John
