Centrino Wireless Cards Update

Abaxter posted this on the first page:

Just like to share that with you guys incase some missed it, or for future reference.

Nick

 

Thanks Nick,

I was the one who missed it! I still wonder what is inside that is 88MB? A driver for wireless card? Geez.

Cheers,

 

I just installed the update.

Internet seems to be a bit faster, quite noticable actually.

It is big though . . 86MB something like that.

 

Makes me wish i had a higher version of the Intel cards. Im on the 2100, (b) and for some reason it feels faster than my Linksys G card. Doesn't matter though, new laptop will have what i want.

Your welcome Ivan

 

Like hell am I gonna install it. I'm not gonna risk losing Fn+F5 again.

Then again, I don't have issues with wireless.

Thanks for the info, Nick.

 

I wonder if this fixes the "problems" of the Intel cards. Mine is waiting to be destroyed by me for fun, so it won't be seeing the new drivers, since my Atheros has taken it's place.

Hope it fixes all of your problems Intel people

Cheers,
Mike

 

Mike, do you have the opportunity to exchange your Intel card with someone who has also the same model? My brother used to have the same card like I did. I was in a similar situation like you and cards were the same manufacturer, name, chip, only serial number was different and the date of manufacturing. My card didn't work well even on the same barebone that my friend has. But my brother's card worked great in my comp. And now the best thing: MY OLD CARD WORKS GREAT in his Prestigio 13"! Not a single issue for months! Now try to explain that! I did a post about that and Nick said that even firmware or whatever makes them work or not. Well I saved some money this way.

On the other hand. I also like smashing not working devices.

Cheers,
