Help.. my Intel 2915abg wireless card is not working,,,,

I have been having problems with my wireless connection on my ASUS starting yesterday.

Everything works but my Intel card 2915ABG on my ASUS. I get an error message when searching for a wireless network "make sure your wireless network card is turned on"

I have 2 computers now both brand new. One is an HP Dv1000t with an Intel 3945ABG and the ASUS with the 2915ABG.

When I do a repair on the ASUS Intel ,it says no wireless connection detected...but there are several.

I have tested the modem (turned of and on, reset, plugged and unplugged.) Same with my router (Belkin). There has been a problem with my DSL but that has been fixed.

I have been having problems with my DSL..but the guy came today to re-route that.

Everything works but the ASUS Intel. The wireless on the HP works, direct connection into the ASUS works.

For the last several days before the DSL repair, I had to click the "repair" link for the HP Intel card frequently to get it to connect to the internet. But not now.

Last night for the first time, I had to click on the repair for the ASUS Intel but it wouldn't repair. It won't recognize the wireless connection...and there are several around me besides mine.

The two computers are sitting side by side. I am typing on the HP... I cannot get the ASUS to recognize the wireless connection. It states that there is no wireless connection (but there is...the HP is on it.)

The device manager shows the wireless card without a red X.

Should I reinstall the drivers? (I am not sure how... I do not see a CD Rom for it...but I may not know what it is called.)

I am at a loss. I have spent 3 hours on this and I do not have the time to fiddlewith this.... Someone...please help!

 

Did you disable wireless by hitting FN and the wireless button?

 

if you have more probs just reinstall the drivers and it should wor fine.

 

After reinstalling the drivers, it still doesn't work! You can bring the card to your dealer to test, probably, you will know that it is hardware problem or software problem.

 

I was looking to re-load thedrivers and i was on the phone to Proportable, when suddenly it connected itself. I have no idea as to the cause. We were not able to figure it out...just a long list of possibilities.

Unfortunately it cost me a morning of work.

But thanks everyone....

 

Hey Sean just came in and told me he was speaking to you for a while about this. From what he told me and what I could discern from it....... your wireless card is physically working, which is just about all you can hope for on the hardware side. Since everything is updated I'd look towards your activity with powersaving features because he said you're turning your card back on when you come out of standby and sometimes that doesn't work (that's one big place to be concerned with). Also, besides the fact that he know I know you and wanted to let me know what's up... he said your router's last published firmware was from April 2004. Your intermittent problems may have a LOT to do with that. He said he even checked and there isn't another firmware for your. If it is working, I'd count your blessings and go with it, but I'd also look at picking up a new router because it's not a bank breaking purchase, but it could save what's left of your sanity...
