My router is located in my living room and my desktop is in a room located some 30 fett away with several walls in between. I am a light user (surf internet, read emails) and I do not have any special requirements.My router is a WRT54G router and my Wireless-G PCI Adapter is a WMP54G. Both have worked well for the last 5 years or so. Unfortunately, I had some work done in my room and the workers have broken the antenna on my desktop PCI adapter.What should I buy to replace my WMP54G?Should I get a PCI adapter or an USB adapter? Which one?Reliability, range and ease of use are my priorities. Price is not a major concern.
I recently re-installed Windows on my PC, and I had the Wireless-G PCI Adapter installed before I done the re-installation.Now I've re-installed Windows, the adapter doesn't work. Do I have to re-do the whole process again? Also, I didn't actually install it myself, so any detailed step-by-step tutorial?
I am having some trouble getting my computer with Windows XP to use the Linksys model WMP54G wireless - G PCI adapter to connect to the network in my house. I have installed the hardware and the drivers. When I open the view available wireless networks window my network shows up with two bars of strength. But when I select this network and click connect, I get an error message saying "Windows is unable to connect to the selected network. The network may no longer be in range. Please refresh the list of available networks, and try to connect again." I have other computers connecting to this wireless network without any problem. The wireless router I am using is the model WRT150N wireless
I have the PCI adapter installed on my computer. I have installed the driver and my computer recognizes the adapter, can see the network I want to connect to... but will NOT connect.I have 9 other wireless devices connected with no issues. But the PCI adapter will not work.
I have a wireless adapter WMP54G for a long time, but recently i updated to windows 7 and the problems begun.
After read a lot of stuffs about this problem, i downloaded a driver by RALINK and installed de adpter. But......on the installation, show two hardware: one is the adapter Linksys WMP54G...and the other can't be installed. So..on the Device manager appear like "unknown device" on the three of "USB controllers"
So...i'm already try a lot of things and can't install this adapter
I installed Windows 7 Ultimate on my computer, and I cannot get my Linksys to work on it, the light doesn't light but it shows up in device manager. I've tried using Vista 32-bit drivers but it doesn't work at all, I am thinking it isn't a driver issue at all because it shows that the driver is up to date.
I got the D-Link router setup and with the network key. When i tried to type the network key in my pc(which has the adapter). it gave me an error.Network key password need to be 40 bits or 104 bit depend on network configuration. This can be 5 or 13 ascii characters or 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters". what does it mean? because the network key work with other pc..but not my pc with WMP 54G. reason?
I had an antenna break on a WMP54g v 4.1 and I was able to replace it with a WMP54g v 4 but I'm not having a lot of luck getting the driver to install. This is on Win7 32 bit Home Premium. I assume this is due to the fact that I was using a newer and switched to an older piece of hardware and there is some driver issues. How to uninstall the old driver completely so I can start fresh I have tried everything I know to do and can't seem to get anywhere.
Where I can find a driver for:WMP54g v2 for Vista SP2 32bit It used to work just fine, until I recently reinstalled Vista (and installed all the updates) and now my internet connection is "limited." This means that it connects, but is extremely slow and the connection goes in and out.Here are some random notes about my problem:
Nothing is disabled, there are not any conflicts, and the problem remains even if I restore the OS back to restore point that I created right after reinstalling Vista (and before doing anything else).If I hook the computer directly up to my netgear router via cable, Windows Update will download and install a more recent version of said driver (no improvement).Other laptops in the house have no problems with the wifi. I have turned off both my cable modem and wifi router several times.The adapter does connect to the internet, and the signal strength is "excellent", but if drill down to the properties of the connection, it says that IPV4 is connected to the internet, but IPV6 is "limited." This then results in a very weak connection to the internet that goes in and out. I have tried unchecking IPV6 per some recommendations, but that did not work. I have tried resetting everything (winsock, etc) via command prompt. Firewall is off, no antivirus software
I just bought this wireless g pci card and installed the software from the cd on to a windows 2000 pc. When I went to run the software I can only click on the exit button. I looked on the forums and saw that for win 2000 you should only install the drivers by allowing your computer to detect the card. I uninstalled the software but my computer wont detect the card now and if I reinstall the software I cant even open it up anymore. The card is not listed in the device manager at all. Would installing i the first time have created anything in the registry that would have been left behind in the uninstall and would it be blocking the computer from detecting this as new hardware?
I recently bought and installed Windows 8 Pro and figured that there are no drivers available for the WMP54G Wireless Network Adapter (version 4.1)on this OS. What is the solution?
I installed the Linksys WMP54G wireless adapter card in my windows 98 SE computer before I installed the software. (I now know the software is supposed to be installed before the hardware is installed.) The software didn't work. It wouldn't connect to any network. (I have used this adapter card and software before, so I know how to get it to connect when it is working properly.)I used the uninstall to uninstall it, but it didn't work. It removed most of the files, but in the "program add/remove" window (in control panel), the Linksys software is still listed. Using "program add/remove" to try to remove the Linksys software also doesn't work. It acts as if it is removing the software and then shows a message that says the software is 100% removed, but, after rebooting, the software is still listed in the "program add/remove" list. The WMP54G CD won't reinstall the software. Instead it says the software is already installed. How to find whatever WMP54G software file(s) are left on my computer and tell me how to manually remove them.
I have the WMP54G internal wireless adaptor. It normally works fine, but I have been having problems with it lately when I turn my computer back on from sleep. Even thought the wireless router works just fine, when the computer wakes up from sleep the adaptor does not seem to detect any network. I have to restart my computer, and then the adaptor detects the network.
Trying to install WMP54G v4.0 on XP SP3. I have tried all three PCI slots. Removing driver RT2500.SYS system will boot. Put it back and BSOD Error:driver_irql_not_less_or_equal
I'm having an issue with a 2 week old WMP54G pci adapter. The behavior is as follows: I get a successful connection and excellent speeds, but every 10 seconds it stops transmitting and drops off the network for a moment. Then everything comes right back. 10 seconds on, drop, 10 seconds on, drop.I've investigated possible sources of interference, but there aren't any strong networks coming though on the same or nearby channels. Moreover, other devices sitting in essentially the same spot are connected consistently and show no variation in the signal strength.
Other info: OS is Ubuntu 10.10, the machine is a Dell GX270.
I'm trying to install a WMP54G PCI Version 4.1 in my Windows 2000 Pro SP4 computer. I ran the setup cd before installing the card, then took out the disk. After installing the card and powering the computer, the Available Wireless Network screen didn't appear. I also didn't get the Network Monitor icon on the taskbar. Network Monitor appears in the start menu, but can't be started. Device Manager says the card is working properly and there are no conflicts.
I uninstalled the software, removed the card, and repeated the installation process with the same end result. The card light blinks like it is receiving data. I'm using a Linksys WRT54G2 router. Both my desktop (W7) and my laptop (Vista) connect just fine. How can I get my W2K computer on the network?
I have been trying to uninstall the software for the f54g network adapter. I recived a message to run uninstall from the linksys wireless-g usb network adapter
I had connected my WRT54G to my wireless router by disableing the DHCP on WRT54G. It worked great until recently. Now I upgraded my linksys box to the latest and greatest AC1750. Iwant to use complete features of AC1750 router. So to do this, How do I connect Verizon Model(its modem+wireless router) to this Router and have AC1750 drive everything.
I have a Linksys wireless-g broadbrand router ( WRT54G ) in my bedroom along with my cable modem and everything runs fine in my room. But I also have a pretty old computer in another bedroom about maybe 15 or 20 feet away from the current setup. On that computer I have a wireless g adapter that's connect through a usb port and has very low signal strength. I sometimes use that computer and I'm always getting kicked off I'm guessing because the signal cuts out. So, today I plugged in the adapter in my room with my setup and had amazing signal. What can I do to give that other computer a good boost? I know I should update that computer but I'm guessing I also need to somehow boost the signal somehow.
I just recently upgraded my OS from Win XP 32 bit to Win 8 64 bit. I am trying to get everything in order and most of the drivers are now working (CCC for my graphics card, driver for my Striker). However, I am having difficulty locating the driver for 64 bit windows for my Linksys adapter.
For the moment I am running wifi by using my old XP setup (which is the only way I can post on [H]). :P
When I get to the screen that asks for the the security password, and after typing in password then at the bottom their is a button for Back and one for Cancel. The button in the middle for Next is not highlited or clickable.
I run the CD setup disk and the driver install correctly.In the "Connecting the Adapter" screen I click next before connecting the adapter,the setup screen just close with out any notification and no icons on the system tray.I shut down the machine, insert the adapter and power on the machine,now I have the monitor icon and a wireless connection icon in the system tray (the Power led is green and the Link led isblink),when I double click on the monitor icon I got the following screen: no available wireless and the refresh, connect and manual setup are disabled.when I click on the "open the monitor" form the right click menu I got the following screen: also nothing to do on this screen.so I think it's was because I don't have any wi-fi around me, I shutdown the computer raise my wi-fi andrestart the machine, now the led in the same status but the system tray icons didn't appears and when Itry to open it from the menu it's run for few seconds without any screen and disappear.
I'm running Windows 7-64 bit. The AE1000 works great so far, in the one day I've had it, and it appears to start itself and connect when turning the computer on (unlike other people on here that I've seen). BUT, it's all pointless if I can't put my computer into standby. The adapter kicks it right back out as soon as I try to sleep the computer.
I've checked the device settings and "allow the device to wake the computer" is unchecked (in fact, it's grayed out). I rarely turn off the computer; I much prefer to just put it in standby. I don't want to have to unplug the adapter every time I do that.
I'm at a new apt and I can't get Online with vista to download the driver so I've been trying to download it on a droid or iPhone and transfer the file any know any way to do this besides finding a cd? Can I make a cd at a friends house by downloading the driver online? Where can I get the driver?
I picked up a AE3000 for an older laptop, but it will not connect to any network. It is on an older (01') dell laptop running XP SP3. I have tried using the disk and downloading the latest drivers on-line but no luck. It picks up all the networks around me and mine, but it says trying to connect and just can't. I tried it on another laptop and everything works fine. Is there an issue with this adapter and the original USB ports or XP in general? I have checked and rechecked the passcodes, I have deleted all of the profiles and started from the beginning again. I removed my anti-virus program as well as the last effort. Nothing I do seems to make a difference though.This is just used to access the internet on a laptop that is dedicated to a telescope.
Like I said my AE1200 adapter keeps disconnecting, it happens about twice a day, underload especially.I already tried to update drivers, reinstall drivers, tweak settings, nothing works, I even turned off power save mode.I'm running WIndows 7 64-bit
