Dell :: Not Connecting To Buffalo WHR G-125 With Latitude E5420 / Intel Centrino Advanced N 6205
Mar 30, 2013
I just purchased a used Latitude E5420. It looked like the seller did a fresh reinstall of Windows just before selling it to me. The non-internet applications are working fine, but it's not connecting to my home wireless router. I have a Buffalo WHR G-125. I tried pretty much every type of security type, but nothing worked, so I eventually disabled security and set up MAC filtering, after which I put in the MAC address for the laptop. That still didn't solve the problem.
It does connect to my neighbor's unsecured linksys network. Both the neighbor's network and mine are 802.11g
I went to Intel's website and installed the latest drivers for the network card, but that didn't work. I'm using the latest firmware on the router already.
Here are the specs for the laptop
Win 7 Professional 64-bit
Intel Core i5 2520M @ 2.50 Ghz
16 GB RAM

I have a Lenovo T420 with a Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205 wireless network card that causes me some headache. It randomly gets disconnected from my router (Zyxel P-2601HN-F1) and home network, works fine though if i using cable. Right after it gets disconnected it reconnects and works fine until it gets disconnected again. I have an HP laptop connected at the same time and no problems there.It works fine in the network in our office (work laptop). I tried our IT dept but they were clueless and told me I had to figure it out by myself, as it works in the office..

I've got a Centrino Advanced-N 6205 for Desktop wireless card and I'm trying to use the Intel My WiFi hotspot feature to connect my Xbox 360 Slim. The SSID shows up in the Xbox's networking settings, but after I enter the WPA passkey it fails to connect.

I have centrino N 6205 on my new Precision M6700...
Under both win 7 x64 (preinstalled dell) and 8 x64 on another hdd, there's no chance to have wifi working: I mean it does not work as normal wifi to connect to internet and it does not work not even a hotspot to let me connect for example my smarthphone to internet using wifi and a shared cable connection.The card seems to work, since I run a live fedora 18 distro linux from dvd and the wifi was able to connect pc to internet in less than one minute...
(of course I tried dell suggested drivers from download area, last updated intel drivers from intel website, etc etc...)...The wifi seemes to be correctly recognized in the pc but I get errors when I try to connect to router (I tried more than one routers that correctly work).
My system: D3ll Precision M6700| i7-3740QM| 32Gb 1866 mhz (4x8Gb)| 17.3" FHD IPS RGBLED 1920x1080| 8X DVD| K3000M| win8 x64 on Samsung 830 256gb| WD Black 500Gb 7200 rpm| 9 cells 97W| WIFI+BT Centrino N 6205 + Dell 380| QWERTY backlighted| psu 240w| warranty 3yr next business day|

I can´t connect to wifi because it simply doesn't read my wireless network card, I can only connect by an ethernet cable. I've tried to see if it appears in the device manager but it doesn't..

I have just fitted a centrino 6200 half mini card in an attempt to improve wireless conectivity and more so range
I assume that it would come up as new hardware found and then run the driver to get it to work. When fitted it doesnt appear in device manager and when trying to run driver the driver just runs then stops

I have a new laptop, Inspiron 15R 5520, which comes with Intel Centrino Advanced-N 2230 network card. It can only detect my wireless-G netowrk at home, but not wireless-N. I have another computer that can connect to my wireless-N, so network is working fine. I have updated the driver to the greatess and latest.

I'm having some connection problems with my new laptop (Dell XPS 14z).When I'm close to my router (D-Link DIR 635), the connection works just fine.When I'm a bit further from my router, I get a poor connection and a slow speed. I've tested 2 other laptops at the same spot, both of which have no problem with the connection.

I have an XPS L502x laptop with an Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6230 wireless card with the latest driver 15.6.0.0. For the past couple of weeks the strength of the signal as measured by the Intel proset tools goes from excellent to poor in the space of 60 seconds, back and forth. It seems to do this on all channels from 1 to 13. It definitely is affecting Internet performance. I have the security set at WPA-Personal in an attempt to try and stabilise the network. I have also been using iSSIDer to try and find the best channel since there are about 10 other wireless networks from other houses around me. I have a D-Link 645 router which is admittedly about 10 metres and 2 or 3 walls away. However, until a fortnight ago, the network was dead stable showing a strong signal (4 or 5 bars (-50). Now it is all over the place. Could it be a damaged card?

what other cards are compatible with XPS 13 Ultrabook? Like so many people, I have been having a problem with my wifi when the computer is used a little far from the router, and thinking about buying a new wifi card for a replacement (which is silly, and I shouldn't have to do, given my computer is brand-new and cost more than £1000, I know... but I don't seem to have much choice). I've tried everything that has been suggested in the Dell forums, and elsewhere, including those on the Intel site. But nothing has improved my connection even a bit.I have Windows 8 (64-bit). And it currently has an 'Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235' wifi card that came with it.

I have a Dell E1705 running windows 7 64 bit. I am attempting to upgrade my internal wireless adapter to the Intel Advanced N 6235 card.After installing the new wireless card and loading the latest drivers from Intel, the card is not working correctly. The problem is that my computer shows "no connections available". Device Manager says the card is installed properly and that it is working properly however there are no wireless connections for me to connect to including my own.

I have a brand-new Dell Latitude E5420 laptop with Windows 7 (64-bit) on it and it turns out that its wireless is not working. I turned on the physical switch and the little blue antenna lit up for a few seconds and then went off. When I look in the device manager it only shows these:I tried downloading the right drivers from DELL's site (their automated system claims that I need A02 for my WLAN 1530 Half Minicard) - but they wouldn't install, giving me the error log reproduced below[CODE]

I need to take the Latitude e5420 into secure areas that do not allow wireless of any kind. OS level disable, or even BIOS disable are not acceptable. I need to brick the bluetooth transceiver.

I did a custom reinstall on my dell latitude e5420 laptop using dell windows 7professional 64bit sp1dvd and now my wireless network is not working. I tried turning the switch on and off, restarted my laptop, and I also went to dell suport and downloaded all the recomended drivers and it still doesnt work.
I went to device manager and noticed that under "other devices" there is a yellow exclamation mark on the network controller.

I have just got my new xps 17 and opted for the 6230, It only gets to 20 meg download speed, I can insert my old usb N adaptor and get the full 50 meg. I was on the phone for 2 hours last night with Dell, they had remote access and tried lots of things to improve the problem.
Finally once they saw that my old usb adaptor was much faster, they said a technician would call me back today betweek 12pm and 1pm or 4.30pm.

I just received a new xps 15 yesterday. After some long hours of research, I found that I need a different wireless adapter to pick up my routers 5.0GHz signal. The wireless adapter in my XPS right now is an Intel Cetrino Wireless-N 1000. I was wondering if I ordered an Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300, if it would be compatible with my new laptop, and if so, the ease of switching the two adapters.

I have just taken delivery of a new Inspiron N5110 with an Intel Centrino N-1030 wifi card. I also have two dual band routers (LInksys WRT600N) in different locations in the house.
My problem is that the laptop is detecting my routers Wireless-G signals but NOT the Wireless-N signals. I have checked to ensure that the N-1030 card has 802.11n Mode set to Enabled and have also tried both setting under "802.11n Channel Width for band 2.4" (i.e. Auto and 20 MHz Only) with no success.
My routers are configured with the Wireless-G signal only on 2.4 GHz and Wireless-N only on 5 GHz. I found this to be the best setting to avoid interference from neighbors wifi and cordless phones and have been happily using Wireless-N with my other Dell laptop with no problems (XPS M1530 with Intel 4965agn wireless card).Does the N-1030 card not work with 5 GHz Wireless-N?

The wireless on my laptop keeps dropping out. When I first got it it was fine, but after a while I started experiencing problems on every wireless network I connected to. Most of the time it would connect, but after around 10 minutes or so, the connection would drop out and the wireless card has to be "reset" so I can connect again. Otherwise I have a little yellow triangle over my network signal strength bars. I've updated to the latest drivers (14.2.0.10) but it was no luck.
This happens with every wireless network and I know it's not the network because my old Vostro 1500 is running just dandy on all of them.

Just bought and Alienware m17x, which has the Intel Centrino N2230 wireless card. The N2230 states that it is WIDI enabled but my computer shows nothing regarding wireless display anywhere in the search field. Don't know if there's compatibility issues with other components of my computer. If so the list of specs is as follows: CPU- 3rd gen Intel corei7 3630QM. GPU- 2GB GDDR5 NVidia GeForce GTX 660M. RAM- 16 GB Dual Channel DDR3 1600MHz. Wireless Card- Intel 2230 Wireless-N

We are ordering new COWs (Computer On Wheels) for the hospital and they will be using an Intel 6205 Wireless Chip which is a/b/g/n 2x2. The two new floors these devices will be going on will be our first internal hospital entry into 802.11n which I force the clients to run in the 5ghz range for N. Previous to this, all of my cows are G clients and use a 2.2dbi rubber duck for 2.4ghz.
I will be using 1142 AP's, if not 3502 and no I have not performed a survey yet as the floor is still in early construction, but equipment is required to be ordered now. I can tell you that I will be surveying for a voice grade. I suppose my confusion comes from what is the best antenna (obvious open ended question) for this card, being it has two connectors for the 2x2. Again, typically I would use a 2.2 dbi rubber duck for either 2 GHz or dual band 2/5 GHz. Is dual rubber ducks at 6inch spacing (half wavelength met on 2.4 GHz fall back) suffecient or are there other factors involved with the N.

I purchased an XPS-17 Laptop from Dell, which was delivered last week. This system includes the Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6200 wireless network card. I also purchased the Netgear Push2TV HDTV wireless adapter on the advice of the Dell customer representative. The representative assured me that the two functions were compatible, and that all I needed to do was to have the network card search for new networks. Unfortunately the network card does not "see" the Netgear module, only the wireless LAN operating in my home. The Netgear Push2TV is connected to the TV via HDMI, and the TV displays the Push2TV setup screen indicating that it is waiting for a connection from a network card.
I have spoken with Dell Tech Support with no success. First of all the Tech Support representative had no knowledge of the wireless TV display capability, let alone the Netgear Push2TV device, thus did not know how to diagnose the situation, neither did her supervisor. I authorized remote access into the computer and they tried all they knew how to do with no success. Finally, after 2 hours, I was told that Dell was aware of an incompatibility issue between the two devices, and that I should just wait until it was resolved by Dell and/or Netgear in "one or two days". After hanging up, I realized that I had not been given a Case Number, thus had no record of the call.I have been checking the Drivers/Downloads site daily, but find no new releases that are not already installed on the computer.

I have a Intel Wifi Link 5100 AGN wireless card that isn't working properly. It will connect at first, then the connection is dropped. This started happening gradually, then became more and more frequent. I tried reformatting my computer, and this still is happening. When I use a wireless USB adapter, the computer has no problems using the wifi.

I'm having a problem using this Dell Latitude. It's always having these connection fits where it randomly disconnects & then reconnects to our wireless internet. I'm always seeing the internet icon in the toolbar either on "Acquiring network address" or "Not connected", and when the internet is working, the icon doesn't even show up in the toolbar. This keeps on stopping me from doing stuff like posting in forums (I was lucky to be able to post this :P), logging into my email, etc. This problem, however, never existed on the Compaq, so I know it's not the signal. Is there any way to keep it from disconnecting constantly?

I have an ASUS u56e laptop running Win7 Pro that I bought in Aug 2011. Unfortunately my problems started when I was working in East Timor and could not take it anywhere except the IT department where I worked. It is true that for a while I was using the LAN at work and also at my hotel where numerous ISPs were used at various points in time.
I have progressively lost almost total use of the wireless capacity of the machine and this is regardless of where I am using the computer (country, state, public or private networks). Very rarely will I have access and then not for long. When it is not working I will get a message saying that a network adapter cannot be found.
I have updated the driver software and experimented with the power settings. I have also uninstalled an ASUS utility that I read might have been a problem. About the only thing that sometimes works is to disable the network adapter, shut down, and then restart the computer. But not for long.
There is WiMax capability that came with the computer, which I bought at Best Buy. Based on IT advice I have made sure that WiMax is off but the wifi button indicates 'on.' When I am having problems though, I cannot see the wifi button.
I am using Windows Firewall and Webroot SecureAnywhere v.8.02.109. At device manager I see for network adapters: Intel(R) Centrino(R) WiMax 6150 and Intel(R)Centrino(R) WirelessN6150. There is also an entry above for a 6150 Function Driver.
I have attached an image of the ipconfig from the ASUS.
