I bought a new wifi router which supports new network security protocols like WPA2/ Personal & etc.. unfortunately I was not able to connect my laptop through Intel Wifi Link 5100 WAN device which is built in with my laptop but there were no issues while I am connecting to my Android phone.
finally I made this to work with my laptop by the below things which I followed so I decided to share with you people I believe you are in right place to fix your issue.
- Firmware update in your wireless router from the Manufacturer's website.
- Broadcast SSID (change this to make it easier to connect)
- Use WPA-PSK(TKIP) Security(WPA Personal).
- Password at least 13 characters long.( so that people wont hack your wifi easy)
- Mixed b and g mode(n if available)(Use this mode only if using a print server and/or USB wireless adapters.
- Use channels 1, 6 or 11 - for better to use your device
- Setting up DHCP as you want.
- Do NOT use Mac Address Filtering
- Turn off the firewall in the wireless router.
- Its safe to turn off WPS if its not really needed.
- Disable 20/40Mhz Coexistence (for faster speed) - Optional
- Save and exit.
- Power off router and keep 30 seconds.
- Power on router and wait 30 seconds, now try to connect.
Enjoy helping others.
