Problems? See this thread at archive.org.
Hello, i usually stick to my m11x forum, but this fits in here better i suppose.
When i got my laptop, it had intel 1000 wifi card, i upgraded to 6205 after, as 1000 would drop connection on certain routers, i have been looking into this for a while, but only reason i can come down to is the wifi card, as 6205 does it too, even though less often (other devices work perfectly fine).
Now the card works perfectly fine with my phone tether and D Link router, but it doesn't get along at all with my TP Link router, i reset router and it works for an hour or so, sometimes it just works, sometimes it works fine as long as i don't use it. Point is after a while it just starts dropping connection without giving me any internet and keeps trying to reconnect with same result, just dropping connection instantly. (now similarly described issue is in TP LINK FAQ, my drivers are latest from intel, i did try older version ones from Dell too, which are for 6205 too, which i could have as an optional upgrade. Basically it says in FAQ to get latest driver) In the log it says that DHCP server of the router is at fault, but the thing is working fine, as my other devices connect without issues, so its to do with intel wifi cards and TP Link router failing to communicate.
My main concern would be to see if anyone has any insight into what it could be caused/fixed by? i have tried pretty much all the usual suspects (security setting, encryption settings etc.) i would think issue is with intels card/driver. I have seen mention of this in few instances, sadly failing to provide a cure for it.
