Question

Laptop D800 with WLAN 1350 miniPCI wireless adapter Dear Dell Customer support I do have a gold tech support with dell therefore I am hoping that someone from dell or other user will be able to help The wlan 1350 was working fine until I updated the wlan drive to ver 4 and the new wlan utility In our office we have about 27 D800 and we need to use a specific mac address in order to access the network with ver 3 I was able to change the mac address from the registry or using a 3rd party utility ie smac 2.0 without any problem now after I updated the wlan 1350 driver and the wlan utility the minute we change the mac address we get windows error – wlan error and must be close etc I narrow down the problem to the waln utility if I unistall the utility no more error.   Any suggestion how can I solve the problem I we need this wlan utility

Hi,      Go into device manager and access the advanced properties for the card by right clicking on card -- Properties -- Advanced Tab.     Use Locally Administered MAC address feature under this and see if it helps instead of the softwaer you are using. For More info on this, click here.   Rgds   Best-Try (Chris)
