Connectify Incompatible With Dell's DWLAN Manager Utility

rezurect007 · 12 Dec 2013

Expecting a 1 min install i went about running connectify on my Dell.
I was able able to get it running on other laptops but I had a really hard time getting Connectify to run on my Dell laptop 1501.

After a bit of digging , finally i stumble upon the cause: Dell's Wireless DWLAN Card utility.
Connectify doesn't work when Dell Wireless WLAN Card utility is installed.

Hope somebody comes across this post, instead of spending time on stuff like this when you absolutely don't have it

Hi rezurect007,

Thanks for this contribution. I am sure many other users would benefit from it. Connectify works when the network adapters are controlled by windows. If it is controlled by other software it might stops working.

+ Rep to you.
