FIX for the 2915 802.11 abg wireless card - Page 4

Same problems. The driver didn't fix jack for me.

Uninstall everything to get rid of the Intel management stuff then install the drivers only and let Windows manage your wireless connection. That fixed the speed drops for me.

Link is down again!

This driver only link still works.
Thanks SV.

My connect speeds still go up and down. It dont hurt my internet speeds though. This new driver works just like the 9.0.1.21 or whatever it was. lol.

I just hate having to go in and "uncheck" the "Transmit Power" check box. So it gets full download/upload speeds.

Anyone know if anywhere in the registry if you can make it set to full Transmit Power? So I dont have to uncheck it every reboot?

"For those who want the driver only i uploaded it to some webspace.
Intel 9.0.2.0 Driver only now it is only 2mb"

Not found, can someone re-upload the driver only version please?

Don't install the software? Just use the driver perhaps?

Tried that.
Still have to go into the adapter settings to set the Transmit power.

Works fine here, maybe try again ?

I have to try this when I get home. My problem is that I just get overall crappy d/l speeds. My upload is fine at around 400-600KBs but my d/l is around the same speed which sucks seeing as how I can get 3MBs on other wireless cards or wired.

Other than that I havent noticed speed drops or anything. It just stays the same, slow, piss me off speed.

What really bothers be is having to connected to wired anytime I wanna deal with large files. As I said above I have tried other wireless cards from friends but am thinking of going to get my own linksys card cause I dont know how much more I can take...




Oh, btw. I was on the phone for hours today with Dell. I spoke with the following people, 4 XPS Techs, 3 Wireless Techs, 2 Software Techs, 1 Customer Service Rep. This was all in one call and needless to say I felt abused being tossed around :/

What really pisses me off is they kept saying it isnt a hardware issue, which is FINE by me, but then wanted to CHARGE! me to have their software techs trouble shoot further than anyone else. I dont give a crap what is wrong all I know is the system was sent to me with a wireless card that doesnt function correctly. Bottom line is they said they would send me a new card but if that doesnt fix the problem they will not give me free software support for this issue. I was advised if that case came up to just return the system.

After today I notice why Dell sells so cheap sometimes. Although dont understand why they are so intent on pissing customers off. Its not like I broke then thing and then wanted em to fix it...

Guys you rock! this fixed my problem. I downloaded Dell driver for my 9300 and it would not connect to my router and this works perfect!!!!!!

What warranty coverage did you buy? I got the four year, 7x24 and have gotten everything I've asked for with no hesitation from Dell - including 2 screen replacements.

Does anyone use intel's proset to manage, it seems to be getting flamed but I just checked it out and it seems nicer to me?

its just another thing running that alot of people like to cut out.

Now I'm trying to find a link for that driver version because it was the only one that worked for me and I just upgraded and now it doens't.

google it and get it from intel's website, then you could just update the driver instead of installing all the software.

Yeah, I do. Works fine for me, even with original installed drivers.
