How minimise problems with the Intel Wifi Link 5300 AGN Card

net1

There seems to be a few people having problems with this new Intel based laptop wireless card.

The problems include random disconnections from the wireless networks.

To complicate problem solving the card can still ping and communicate at a lower tcpip/level but you can’t browse the internet for example.

The following can help improve things.

1) Disable Power Management on the card.

poweroff

Set the Power Management to Highest

power2

Set the Roaming Aggressiveness to Lowest
