atheros ar9485wb-eg wireless driver on SAMSUNG LAPTOP not working
Hey guys,
After reading a few other posts about similar topics, I thought that I'd try to create my own thread.
I just bought a Samsung laptop, Windows 7 i3 core processor, 6GB ram, with an atheros ar9485wb-eg wireless network adapter.
I have seen similar threads indicating the failure of this particular wireless network adapter, and another guy took his laptop back to the store to exchange it for another one.
Is this a SAMSUNG issue? The laptop is nice in all other aspects, however when playing games especially the problem is very clear.
When playing LOL, I've been getting "Attempting to reconnect" quite often, when playing Starcraft II, same problem, when I'm browsing the internet.. yep same deal... I've searched for driver updates, nothing has been found.
Should I just return the laptop? This seems like such a hassle for a brand new computer to be having such problems.
I have another ACER laptop which is quite inferior in comparison, however it always has a 5 bar connection, whereas the new SAMSUNG has 2 or 3 at best.
Hope someone out there is having a similar problem and has found a solution! Other than going back to the store and trying to explain the problem with an under-trained sales clerk at Futureshop who will most likely give me a VERY hard time...
Thanks in advance anyone that can help, I'm getting desperate... :)
