WUSB6300 - Windows 8.1 Wifi problems

 I upgraded my computer to windows 8, and the device was working perfectly.
After the 8.1 update, it seems it can't hold a constant connection though.
It will connect and allow me to do different things at first, but shortly after it says my connection is "limited" and I can't connect to anything.
I ran the windows troubleshooter, and it just tells me to reset the router which I have done.
After I pull out the USB drive, it will work again, but only for a short while.
I updated the driver to a windows 8 driver, since I never did that when I upgraded to 8, and that still didn't work.
Changed the power management to make sure 8.1 wasn't turning it off to save power.
Uninstalled / Reinstalled
Done some "netsh" commands I found online.
Used both a specific DNS address, and automatic.
Nothing seems to be fixing the issue, anyone have any ideas?

Ive had the same problems. Constant disconnects. I get disconnected to online servers like live streams from twitch.tv and some games it will dsynch and disconnect me. Transfering files over my home network it will error out and stop the transfers. I called and ended up returning it because I thought it was defective and got a replacement adapter and it has the same issues so its a driver problem on their end. Ive tried it on multiple home computers and the same things happen. I was running windows 8 and now 8.1 with the same troubles.  Ive also tried it in both USB 2.0 and 3.0 and it didnt help
I pretty much have given up on the adapter, Its sitting on the desk disconnected and im using my old TP-Link wireless adapter mainly  for internet access and online gaming and only pluging in the linksys for home network transfers because its alot faster sending large files to my other PC.

  • K3011 windows 8.1 upgrade fixed Wifi problem

    I just upgraded my K3011W from Windows 8 to Win 8.1 after I suffered under major Wifi problems. Poor connectivity or lost signal.  I did an inplace upgrade to Win 8.1 Pro but at first the Wifi problem remained -no connectivity at all.
    Then I found the broadcom driver package  sp58848.exe at the HP website
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?cc=de&lc=de&dlc=de&tmp_geoLoc=true&software...
    which finally was the breakthrough.
    After windows update everything runs just fine!

    I am going to have to try this.  My problem with the Broadcom at this point after Windows 8.1 is that there is no longer a "Power Management" tab in the Broadcom properties, so everytime the tablet sleeps it turns off wifi, irritating.  You almost have to run the tablet with no sleep which really kills the battery.
    But it makes sense there would be a Broadcom driver for a Lenovo tablet on an HP site.  Jeesh.

  • Still on 10.6.5 but having wifi problems with Canon MP495

    At least I think it is a wifi problem? Love this printer - worked brilliantly since I have had it and not had any issues with it at all once installed properly. However, over the past 3/4 weeks I keep getting communication problems and the wifi button/light flashes during printing and more often than not the printing stops and spits out the paper with only a few lines printed. I then have to pause the printer and resend several times - and I'd be lucky to get a complete print without error 1 out of 5 times. I have not changed position of the printer. The kids laptops with windows 7 did not appear to have this problem until first thing this morning when my daughter needed to print something for school on 'special paper' and guess what - it stopped and spat it out half way through! Any clues as to what to do wold be very much appreciated.

    Stressed Mum wrote:
    I have moved the printer as the signal was low - 38% and link 36%. It has increased slightly up to 48% but that is on the dining room table now Why would the signal change? It used to communicate without any problems at all - this is very disappointing.
    There can be a number of reasons why the change has occurred but the most common is other wireless devices causing interference, and not just from your house. If a neighbour is using a wireless router on the same channel as yours then this can cause interference. A quick fix can sometimes come from turning off the wireless router for a minute and then back on. Many routers will check what wireless channels are being used and select one that is not being used by another router within range. If the router cannot do this automatically then a manual setting of a channel can help.
    There are some utilities that can scan your premises for all wireless signals. This can assist with locating an unused channel. The following is an app that I have used for helping friends with wireless issues.
    http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/27740/airradar
    Can I confirm that it is actually linking with the pc/mac that sends the print and not the router?
    The printer should be linking to the wireless router and the computers should also link to the same router. The printer does not support a direct connection to it from a wireless computer.
    I really do not want to have to move the printer every time I/the kids need to use it. I think I'll update to 10.6.6 just to see if that makes a difference and revert soon.
    I don't believe the 10.6.6 will resolve this. And you also said that the Win7 computer also had problems so it would suggest there is more of a problem with the connection from the router to the printer.

  • 10.6.8 and Lion wifi problem

    hello,
    I am trying to use my mac for one week...... ;(
    everything was fine until update to 10.6.8... wifi problem as many of you already know. tried to update to lion, same problem. Got back to 10.6 and then update to 10.6.8 using software update... then formatted again, fresh install 10.6 update to 10.6.8 using combo update, same problem.
    tried to delete firewall file, turned off ipv6, changed security of my router from wpa2 to wpa, tried different channels, reset SMC and RAM, all the solutions we can research... all the same
    now I am on 10.6.7 and seems i still has the problem happening....
    hello apple, more than a month and no solution yet????
    I've read somewhere a new procedure that consists in update to 10.6.8 and before restart do some procedures.... but I can't find it anymore, any help?
    I guess that solution is the only one remaining I did not try yet.
    thanks and regards,
    raul

    well, it's caused by software only, there is nothing wrong with airport hardware
    hard to believe, it's like windows old time sake, loosing precious days fighting with a computer...
    too bad apple

  • WiFi problem that won't go away.

    I have an iPad 1 32GB WIFI. Still on 5.1.1 (because I can't do anything else). It has only really started having problems in the last few months. I think it's just two years old - so it was still covered by statutory warranty when the issue arose, despite Apple trying to argue to the contrary. Its main problem is the wifi (there are some problems with sound not working and battery life too, but they're less of a problem).
    A few months ago, it decided that it just wasn't going to connect to my home wifi network. Full signal strength, but it would just decide to drop out randomly. And when I tried to reconnect, it would tell me that it was unable to connect to the network. Tried everything I read, but nothing changed: turn the actual modem on/off, renewed lease, forget this network, turned the wifi on the iPad on/off, turned airplane mode on/off, tried hard reset, reset network settings - nada. One day, it just randomly decided to start reconnecting and the world was good again.
    However, without notice, on Christmas Eve, it decided that it was time to repeat its little issue. Although now it seems to be more annoying. It hasn't connected at all since Christmas Eve (so three days). It will show as having a WIFI full signal strength on the top bar and it will have the network name against Wi-Fi in Settings, but it won't have actually connected because it will just have the spinning loading circle next to the network itself and also next to 'Choose a network...'. Full signal strength though. For the first time though, it has given me a 169.xxx.xxx.xxx IP address (nothing changes this). [Oh, actually, it finally just appeared with a tickmark next to the network name for the first time in days, but the actual internet isn't recognised (there no WIFI signal in the top bar of the iPad and nothing works) - this appears to be because it somehow changed itself from DHCP to Static IP Address].
    There doesn't appear to be any problem with my modem/router - iPhone and other computers connect to it without problems.
    The spinning circle next to the network when it's "already detected" just makes me want to break the **** thing (I won't , but it's so frustrating).
    What can I do?
    Edit: I've already followed the advice on the troubleshooting page (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398)

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • Ipad mini wifi problems

    I've changed my wifi password, but my ipad mini still remember the old one. Therefore, I cannot connect to wifi, but my mac book is okay with it. I tried to reset the internet settings, but my ipad mini doesn't allow me to verify my password!

    The wifi password is usually printed on the router's label.

    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • Does not shutdown, does not start up, wifi problems

    Hi
    I've been unable to switch off my macbookpro by conventional means. when i press the power button, it doesnt give me the option to restart or shut off, and when i scroll down to shutdown and select it, nothing happens. the only way for me to switch it off is to press and hold the power button to force it off.
    I recently upgraded to Leopard hoping this would resolve the problem, but it has persisted. What's worse now is that after installing the updates for leopard last night i have been unable to get back into my computer. I am asked to register my macbook when i turn it on..and after filling out my details, and pressing the done button, I am back on the first registration page where it asks you which country you are in. closing that window, i am left with a blank desktop and i have to force shut down to switch it off. on restarting, i am prompted to register my macbook again.
    i also have a wifi problem whihc i was hoping leopard would solve but it didnt. reading through othre posts on this with no resolution.
    any suggestions??

    hmm, the problem now is that i cant even access my desktop...i'm asked to register each time i turn my computer on and my desktop is completely blank if i close that window. so i have no option other than shutting it off. (i have to use the internet and computer at work now to read my email etc)how do i run the disk utilits repair if i cant gain access into my computer?
    yeah the guy at the store said he found that the new leopard improved his wifi connection and he had less drop outs but now i think he was probably jsut pushing a sale and BSing me!
    appreciate ur help!

  • But wait, there's more... more wifi problems = glad to have my nexus 7

    i work in a wifi zone.  who doesn't.  i used to use my ipad 2 (64gig wifi+3g iOS 6.0.1) all the time here to get things from dropbox or take notes with evernote, or to surf answers to questions posed in meetings.  wonderful tool.  then i updated the OS to 6...
    and now i can't use it for more than a couple of minutes before wifi quits working.
    i get the same spining wheel of death in the settings>wifi that others have complained about.
    i've started carrying my nexus 7 around with the ipad and without failing even a single time the nexus has never had an issue connecting while the ipad sits and spins its wheel of death. 
    and all this can be had for $1,000 with tax.  yea.
    at home my wifi connectivity is much better with the ipad, but still it's worse than it was before the 'update'.  further, if the nexus can connect i expect the 4 times more expensive, from the great minds at apple, ipad to be able to connect also. 
    guess i was wrong. 
    i don't get angry when computers can't do complex things that are relatively new, but wifi isn't new, and i get immensly hacked off when a company breaks a basic functionality of a devise and offers nary a word on a fix. 
    face it folks.  this is just another IT gadget made by just another computer company. 

    iOS 6.1 was just released today. Maybe there's a wifi fix.

    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

  • TS1559 WIFI solutions proposed by Apple are not working. Does oneone how to solve the WIFI problems?

    Dear Apple.
    I was really happy with my iphone4s, IOS 6.0, great product amazing quality and posibilities BUT.......
    I updated from IOS 6.0 to 6.1.1. and the WIFI nightmare started.
    I waited for a new update to fix the WIFI problems and I updated my iphone 4s from 6.1.1. to 6.1.2. in order to solve these problems related with WIFI connections.
    But IOS 6.1.2. is even worst:
    - WIFI is not working at all. So I cannot download apps greater than 50MB.
    - Battery life is shorter than ever.
    - 3G goes in and out every minute.
    - When you operate the iphone4s you can realize that is hotter than before.
    These problems are unnaceptable and inconsistent with a high quality standard product.
    You can read a lot of blogs, I am not the only one.
    Please give us a solution as soon as possible.
    Best Regards

    Thank you for your support.
    My router is a TL-WR740N, and I think it has only a 2.4-2.4835GHz antenna.
    So it seems that I have to keep on trying.
    I also tryed to rename the router, still nothing.
    Thank you anyway.

  • HELP!!!!! WiFi problems

    (I'm pretty sure I won't get any answers as usual but where else can I ask for help -.-) I'm having major Wifi problems and my router's warrenty expired in 2004 O_O But my computer has a good reception from the router like windows says Excellent Quality to Very Good Quality... But, with my iPhone, it barely detects our home network and contantly disconnects, I've tried getting as close as to having my iPhone touch both attennas of my router and my iPhone sometimes doesn't even detect our home network as it's touching the network router itself! lol can someone help me please... our computers work fine with this router it's my iPhone that keeps easily detecting other networks other than our own which is the closest and weird because the other ones aren't in our house...

    Dear Saberunna,
    I am experiencing the same problem and i believe alot of people are. I am dying to fix the problem but at this moment i don't know how.
    If anyone out there knows how to solve the problem please let us know!!!!
    thankx

  • After installing Mountain Lion, WiFi problems

    I installed Mountain Lion on my mac mini and have been having intermittent WiFi problems ever since. It seems to be getting worse, connection is now being dropped several times an hour as opposed to several times a day. I have tried all the suggestions that have been put forth with no luck. My iPhone can use the WiFi with no problems. What I have found that seems to work everytime is to go into the Network system preferences, turn WiFi off, and then immediately turn it back on. I am using the most recent Apple Airport Extreme. I urge Apple to fix this bug quickly.

    Don't know what to tell you, but I also have an AEBS-Gen5 with a MBP Retina and Mac Mini using WiFi. Both are running Mountain Lion and I don't have any WiFi connection issues. Two iPhones in the household use WiFi with no issues along with a printer and 2 Windows 7 laptops.
    First thing I would try is to shutdown all computers connected to the AEBS. Then power off the AEBS and finally the cable/DSL modem. Then reverse the order and power on the cable modem, wait for all the lights to be solid, power on the AEBS, wait for the light to show solid green; then power up a computer that uses WiFi.
    If the above doesn't work, you might try repairing permissions via Disk Utility. If that doesn't help maybe a PRAM reset would work.

  • Windows 8 on u410 problems!!!

    I have upgraded at windows 8, I have problems with wifi bluetooth and usb 3 port:
    i cannot switcher the wifi and bluetooth like in windows 7.
    when I insert the usb pen drive into usb 3 port but don't is recognized.
    I have installed the software lenovo energy management.

    hi neomatrix,
    Welcome to the Lenovo Community.
    The Lenovo Energy Management for Windows 8 has limited functionalities as compared to it's previous version on Windows 7, Until an update of the Energy Management comes out, the feature below will not be activated when pressing Fn+F5.
    Spoiler (Highlight to read)
    If you really need the feature, you can always downgrade back to Windows 7 (refer to this guide)
    Hope this helps.

  • Lenovo G580 Windows 8.1 WiFi

    Hi there,
    I got a Lenovo G580 recently and it works all fine. Except the WiFi which is down now for a day or so. To be precise I couldn't enter the Internet after I did the Update to Windows 8.1. I deleted the Network via "cmd" and connected again but I still don't have Internet. Windows says I should restart the Router etc. and I did but it still doesn't work plus my smartphone is in the same Network and works just perfect.
    Any thoughts on what I could do to solve this mess?
    And I don't have any options after a rightclick on the WiFi-Network.
    Appreciate all help I can get, Thanks
    Robert
    Hi,
    ich hab mir letztens fürs Studium einen Lenovo G580 gekauft und alles klappt wunderbar, bis auf die WLAN-Verbindung, die bis zu meinem Update auf Windows 8.1 von Windows 8 auch problemlos geklappt hat. Jetzt hat er aber ständig ein Problem mit dem Standardgateway o.Ä. und schlägt mir jedesmal vor den Router neuzustarten. Hab ich natürlich auch schon paarmal gemacht, bringt leider nichts. Genauso erfolglos war ich als ich in der Eingabeaufforderung die Verbindung gelöscht und dann wieder verbunden habe. Kein Internet nur die begrenzte Netzwerkverbindung. Und wie es immer vorgeschlagen wird mit Rechtsklick auf die Verbindung zu klicken geht leider auch nicht. 
    Hat jemand eine Idee woran es liegt bzw liegen könnte?
    Ich kann dringend Hilfe gebrauchen und bin dankbar für jeden Vorschlag!
    Gruß,
    Robert

  • Wifi problem - connection stalls. MSI GE620DX

    Hi,
    Bought this laptop May 2011. OS Windows 7 Home Premium, Intel Centrino Wireless-N 130 wifi adapter (from Windows device manager).
    I have had the same Wifi problem from the beginning. The Wifi connection stalls every 5-20 seconds or so. The wifi stays connected but basically it is just like it is losing packets for some seconds. Like if I'm streaming a video (Internet or LAN, the exactly same thing) with VLC, the video starts to play nicely but after 5-10 seconds it starts to skip frames and stops for 1-4 seconds and then continues again. (But Youtube for example usually works better, because it buffers the video and can handle these network errors.)
    Other services behave exactly similarly, like file transfer. It is relatively slow to begin with but also varies in speed. If I transfer from another computer in the same LAN (other computer with wired connection) the speed is about 600-700 kB/s. Web browsing sometimes needs a refresh on the browser to get the page to load. I tried pinging my router, results were: Sent = 2730, Received = 2589, Lost = 141.  Round trip fastest = 1 ms, slowest = 2407 ms, average = 7 ms.
    So, you understand this is quite frustrating at times.
    I initially thought the problem is just some incompability with my router and this MSI laptop Wifi. But I now have experience with four different networks in four different locations and the results are always very similar. So I am quite sure the fault is with the MSI. With wired connection there's no problems at all but that is not always possible and basically the Wifi should just work.
    I have tried different driver version but absolutely no difference. The latest driver was just updated from Windows Update and no difference in performance. I have also tried to let both the Intel PROSet/Wireless software and Windows to manage the Wifi connections, but again, no difference what so ever.
    I'm kinda thinking it's a hardware problem.
    Any advice or should I just contact MSI for repairs? Thanks in advance.

    Thanks Buluunee!
    After your advice I decided to once again reinstall, starting by uninstalling the driver and also Proset. Once uninstalled both, I just installed the driver (or actually Windows found it automatically, altough I thought I had removed it). Now, without the Proset, this seems to be working!
    There was something odd happening after a reboot, wifi connected but didn't get IP address. Another device worked fine on the same network. I had an extra router and this is working nicely even after some shutdowns. So, it seems this was after all a softaware problem.
