some router have WMM problem, upgrade router firmware or disable WMM on intel wifi 5100 fix problemĮxplain by Wickham /message/153318# 153318 153318ģ. some router did not implement " Power save polling" correctly Intel� Wi-Fi Products - Power save polling (PSP) causes connection issues with access points.Ģ. Reading through this post from beginning, give me some idea belowġ. This is how I fixed my problem on Sony VAIO notebook with intel WIFI link 5100agn But we had so many Toshibas with these 5100/5300 cards, it was more cost effective (monitarily, at least) to bolster the wifi-N network routers with G-only routers using a unique SSID (on a dedicated channel) so that these laptops could use them. Such cards can be purchased for $25 or less online. If it were all up to me, I'd replace all the wifi miniPCI cards with a different card. And IMHO, an intrensic problem with the Intel 5100/5300 cards that Intel would just as soon sweep under the rug and not bother with a recall. What is really strange is that a few of the Toshiba laptops with the 5100/5300 cards have had NO PROBLEM at all, while other Toshibas (exact same model with exact same firmware) have had nothing but problems connecting. DISABLING or REPLACING the 5100/5300 card with another card, or disabling the 5100/5300 cards and using a USB wifi device. We used Linksys WRT54GL's with the DD-Wrt firmware.Ģ. KEEPING the 5100/5300 (most cost effective): Bolster the wireless network with G-only routers using a separate SSID. "iwlagn: Error sending REPLY_RXON: enqueue_hcmd failed:"Īfter having read through this posting, sadly I still have not found a workable solution other than these 2 things we did at work:ġ. and if you see these messages in dmesg/syslog then you have been graced with this misfortune. It is probably not related to Heat - I opened the laptop and the Fan seems clean. Has anyone tried to replace the mini PCI intel Wifi card with something else? Broadcom / Atheros / another Intel?įor the sake of Linux users, this problem will start happening infrequently and gradually increase.

and of course, its same in Windows too! I need 2-3-4 reboots to get the wireless working in Windows (XP) and even then, the card stops working if I put a little load on internet. Now the problem is severe - so I checked in the dual OS Windows. There are lots of bug reports on this problem for Linux and apparently Intel is working on it. At that time, it happened infrequently, that too in Linux.
The laptop - HP Probook 4410s - is 1.5 yrs old, the problem started appearing about 6 months ago. There are three other laptops in the home which work just fine and never drop connection. I have not made any changes in the last 12 months to my wireless network settings in the router or on the computer.

I have tried using the latest version driver from the Intel site (13.4.0.9) and that has the same problem as the version that is the latest on my laptop vendors site (13.0.0.107). Sometimes the scan will not find it and all I can do is re-boot. I try scanning for hardware changes and sometimes that will find it and I can re-enable it. Sometimes when I go into device manager the adapter isn't even listed. Now it is disconnecting as often as every minute or two. A few weeks ago it was disconnecting one or two times a day. I go into device manager and disable the adapter and re-enable it and it works fine for a bit and then disconnects again.
I boot the computer and the light will be blue. On my laptop there is a light that shines blue when connected and orange when not connected. The Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN adapter keeps dropping connection. I'm having a problem that just started with my 2 year old laptop.
