Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN

Driver version 12.0.0.82

Driver date 08/07/2008
--------------------------------

I have a big problem with my WiFi adaptor when resuming from Sleep. In all
other circumstances it works perfect. Upgrading the driver version and my
router firmware has not helped. Basically, when I resume from sleep, the
WiFi indicator still shows connected in system tray. Clearly though, it is
not as I have no internet access or IP address.

When I click on the icon in the system tray, I should get the Network and
Sharing Centre but nothing appears. If I try to open the Network Connections
panel through Control Panel or elsewhere, it hangs that MMC. Currently the
only way to get wireless back online is to reboot after which all is well
again.

Interestingly, browsing to the adaptor properties shows the option to
Enable…but nothing happens when you try this. Disabling via DeviceManager
and re-enabling hangs the console. I’ve tried everything else I can think
of. The Intel wireless tools run their tests and show the driver loaded and
hardware enabled, but sits for a long time on the Radio Test with no result.
Explorer.exe will stop working if I run these tests, upon resuming the
desktop shows the red cross against the adaptor (and even my battery as being
flat.)

The event logs are pretty useless; the resume from sleep time shows no
related errors for networking.

This is an example of a pooooor OS, reliability is not a strong point. Does
anyone have suggestions on how to resolve this issue, suggestions welcomed?

Thanks in advance.

I'll give it a go - neither option was ticked for allowing to put into sleep
or wake etc.

Would have thought they'd have the driver setup already to work in line with
hibernation

I think that it should be checked, that lets the computer turn it off when
going to sleep, knowing that it was turned off the system then turns it back
on and restarts it when it wakes up. That is my theory anyway. At least try
changing it from whatever it currently is set to.

You were talking of sleep mode in original post?
I expect it would have worked from hibernate because it is a full power up
condition.
If the wireless card is not working from restore from hibernation then my
suggestion is probably bogus.

No sorry, it was my inaccuracy in the terminology - problem is sleep mode

AFAIK this is a known issue and a driver update should be available.
If you indeed have latest 4965 driver and BIOS, please contact Dell

Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN

Driver version 12.0.0.82

Driver date 08/07/2008



Driver/BIOS all latest version. Previous suggestion below unsuccesful, will
attempt to open a support call though i'm likely to be forced through the
usual hoops.

Cheers

AFAIK this is a known issue and a driver update should be available.
If you indeed have latest 4965 driver and BIOS, please contact Dell
support.

No sorry, it was my inaccuracy in the terminology - problem is sleep mode
only. Will update the post later with the result. Cheers.

You were talking of sleep mode in original post?
I expect it would have worked from hibernate because it is a full power
up
condition.
If the wireless card is not working from restore from hibernation then my
suggestion is probably bogus.

I'll give it a go - neither option was ticked for allowing to put into
sleep
or wake etc.

Would have thought they'd have the driver setup already to work in line
with
hibernation

A thing to check.
Under status for your wireless network adapter
Properties
Configure
Power Management Tab

check the status of 'Allow the computer to turn off this device to
save
power'
I think that it should be checked, that lets the computer turn it off
when
going to sleep, knowing that it was turned off the system then turns
it
back
on and restarts it when it wakes up. That is my theory anyway. At
least
try
changing it from whatever it currently is set to.

Dell XPS M1330 Core2Duo 2GB RAM laptop

Vista Home Premium

Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN

Driver version 12.0.0.82

Driver date 08/07/2008
--------------------------------

I have a big problem with my WiFi adaptor when resuming from Sleep.
In
all
other circumstances it works perfect. Upgrading the driver version
and
my
router firmware has not helped. Basically, when I resume from
sleep,
the
WiFi indicator still shows connected in system tray. Clearly
though,
it
is
not as I have no internet access or IP address.

When I click on the icon in the system tray, I should get the
Network
and
Sharing Centre but nothing appears. If I try to open the Network
Connections
panel through Control Panel or elsewhere, it hangs that MMC.
Currently
the
only way to get wireless back online is to reboot after which all is
well
again.

Interestingly, browsing to the adaptor properties shows the option
to
Enableâ?¦but nothing happens when you try this. Disabling via
DeviceManager
and re-enabling hangs the console. Iâ?Tve tried everything else I
can
think
of. The Intel wireless tools run their tests and show the driver
loaded
and
hardware enabled, but sits for a long time on the Radio Test with no
result.
Explorer.exe will stop working if I run these tests, upon resuming
the
desktop shows the red cross against the adaptor (and even my battery
as
being
flat.)

The event logs are pretty useless; the resume from sleep time shows
no
related errors for networking.

This is an example of a pooooor OS, reliability is not a strong
point.
Does
anyone have suggestions on how to resolve this issue, suggestions
welcomed?

Thanks in advance.
