Re: [Help Me] D-Link DI-624 and WPA issue
On my DI-624 revC with FW 2.76, I'm using WPA with either AES or TKIP w/o any issues. WPA2 still is not stable despite what the changelogs say.
For my DWL-G520 I use the Atheros drives since the D-Link ones seemed to cause intermittent pauses when accessing the network.
This is a good archive of Atheros stuff...the guy is one of the members of this forum. Get the 4.2.2.27 installer and then upgrade the driver to 4.2.2.33.

As for the DWL-G650, I followed a Microsoft KB article on WPA2 and installed the DWL-G650 revC drivers 3.18 (force it to use the revC driver) during installation.

Just make sure you uninstall all of the current D-Link sofware and reboot before installing the stuff above.

West Hollywood, CA | I could not get the G650 revC drivers to work on the revB card. It was telling me that I wa missing a file. Also you say that the WPA2 is not stable.
Is there a sure way to fix this problem? |

| I'm not sure if the difference between the DWL-G650 revB3 and revB5 is why the revC v3.18 drivers worked with mine. It didn't complain about anything missing when I installed them. I didn't mention it, but to actually get driver v3.18, you need to look under the DWL-G520 revB which driver also supports the DWL-G650 revC. Again this is for the PCMCIA DWL-G650, not your PCI DWL-G520 (use the Atheros drivers for that one).

If that still doesn't work, perhaps try the regular DWL-G650 revB driver v2.54? That is the latest one, not v2.53.

West Hollywood, CA | The 2.54 driver was not supposed to be in there that one is for Win ME and Win 98. Not sure why it displays as a latest driver under Win XP. |

1 edit | One of the v2.54 fixes was applicable to Win ME & 98, but it still has a newer driver than the one in package v2.53. Also the drivers (both Win98-Me and WinXP-2k) were updated to support the revB5, which is what my bundled install CD had. |
