Drivers for advent 4211 b? I have an Advent 4211 and i can't find out which wireless lan driver do download.? Wireless drivers for an ADVENT 9212? More questions.
My internal Wifi failed to see my Router soon after I started with Linux so I installed a USB dongle I hadThe dongle works OK for a while and then I loose my Internet but not the wifi connection. If I disconnect/connect wifi it works ok for a while. There does not appear to be a pattern to when it fails.It is a Realtek RTL8188CUS 802.11n using WLAN Adaptor driver: rtl8192cu which is also installed in WinXPI am hoping someone can give me a solution that I can understand preferably using GUI as other than trying to sort the problems I have had I have no need to learn CLI. I just want to do everyday tasks on my computer.I have searched the Internet and there could be an issue with the Linux Drivers rtl 8192cu for the Realtek Adapter. Unfortunately for me the solutions mostly involve using Command Line. I have tried some but get confused when they are not recognized.With the many flavors of Linux I am not sure if they all should work in Lite 2.
Also having only a very limited knowledge of CLI its difficult to know if the commands given require me to be in the correct command structure before they will work.Also the outputs are in such an abbreviated form that needs converted to normal language to know what they mean!!!!Colin.

Hi Thanks for thatI assume you meant me to connect using an Ethernet cable so I could connect to the Internet to download the update.Am I correct in thinking that the commands are the same as using the upgrade from the Menu.If so I had done it again yesterday.Just to say that the WiFi Dongle does connect through the Wifi Router and I can use the internet OK for a while. Then later when I try to go to a different page I get a message saying I am unable to connect.Network Manager still says I am connected to my WiFi. If I disconnect and reconnect using Network Manager everything works normally immediately until it fails yet again.I have a different computer that uses the same Router. It has no problems using the Router as did this one before I needed to use the dongle.Colin.

I have just bout the same laptop this week. And the wireless feature is doing my head in. It can pick up networks and log on.
But it keeps disconnecting. I phoned up the techguys.
They said that the network card (realtek 8119) needs updating. And told me to go to their website and download the driver update. Problem is their site doesnt seem to work on any computer i try to access it on. So i went to realtek website to find the driver and its all too confusing for me. Could someone PLEASE PLEASE help me find the driver up date for realtek network card 8119 for advent 4211 laptop running on windows xp!!!thanks in advance. Hi,I had exactly the same problems with wireless connection when I first bought my 4211.
The problem wasn't the drivers (although I always update them) but the channel my router was on. Our router was configured for channel 13 because it is quiet. Club dj pro 3 serial crack keygen. The problem is, the 4211 wireless card can only go up to 11! Most of my neighbours are on 1 which is the default channel so I had avoided it. Our existing computers all worked with 13 ok but not the 4211!It sounds like the problem you have is too many neighbours on the same channel as you. This could explain seeing it sometimes and it dropping connection other occasions.
My brother had this problem so I changed him to channel 4 on the router and all is well. The Dell is obviously getting better reception or is configured directly for the channel your routr is set to.As far as the driver is concerned, click here to download the Realtek 8187se driver directly:Please note I get my drivers from MSi directly. I take it you know that you have a re-badged MSi Wind U100 (they made the laptop). Also, I don't know of the wifi card you mention (Realtek 8119) being used in the 4211. They do use three different models but I am only aware of one Realtek!Did you get the number from the sticker underneath your 4211? If not, it is the middle of the three stickers that says, 'RF Module inside:' The third row of this label lisits your model number such as RTL8187seI hope this helps.Oh here is the link for the other downloads:Most haven't changed.Good luck. Yep I got a advent 4211 this week to replace my old ibm.its great, but the wireless is terrible.
Just keeps dropping off every few mins. It makes it unusable.If you search online there are hundreds of people with the same problem, so I am amazed this is being taken more seriously.I tried flashing the bios to 1.09, still had the same problem.I tried update the drivers via the manufacturers website, still had the same problem.But I managed to fix mine today and has worked faultlessly all day long, has not dropped off wifi since I done this.Run windows update, select CUSTOM, then install both the ms realtec drivers windows offers, reboot and it fixes it. Don't know why these drivers fix it and the manufacturers don't, but worked for me.Make sure do custom and not express ms update as it wont suggest them as they optionals.I was also getting terrible packet loss on pings with the supplied drivers, over 1000ms to yahoo no matter when I did it and internal ones were bad. Now they only 100ms max so shows the supplied drivers and messed up.
