I was going to surf eBay and find another Wi-Fi card, but then I had
one last idea -- double-checking the the CMOS/NVRAM settings via
Setup. I cut the settings down to the bare minimum for Wi-Fi:
Settings
+ Wireless
+ Wireless Switch
| WWAN unchecked
| WLAN checked
| Bluetooth unchecked
+ Wireless Device Enable
WWAN unchecked
WLAN checked
Bluetooth unchecked
-> Apply
-> Exit
Wow, good job, didn't think about the firmware.
For info, what were the settings BEFORE you changed them ?
Settings
+ Wireless
+ Wireless Switch
| WWAN checked
| WLAN checked
| Bluetooth checked
+ Wireless Device Enable
WWAN checked
WLAN checked
Bluetooth checked
I know the machine has Wi-Fi and it does not have WWAN. I don't know
if the Wi-Fi card includes Bluetooth. But, "if it ain't broke, don't
fix it'.
Don't touch anything, and look up your card on the net ;)
If you don't use it now, maybe you'll need it one day, and you may have
forgotten you disabled it in the FW.
Agreed.
Damn infernal computers and networks...
Too easy, not funny ^^
