DWA-130 drops connection when user logs off
« on: September 30, 2011, 08:03:03 PM »
I bought 2 DWA-130s for my kids today. The problem is that when the kids log off the computer the wireless disconnects until they log back on. Is there a way to leave the wireless connected even though no one is logged on to the computer? This way I can remote into the computers while they are sleeping and don't have to go into their rooms and wake up the kiddos.

i think i am experiencing something similar.  As far as i can tell it has nothing to do with any kind of 'poerr-saving' features....

When i power on the computer (from being off), or reboot it, the system starts up, but the wireless is not connected/enabled...

I have to login to get it to connect....  and soemtimes THAT doesn't work, and i have to take the additional step of opening the System Preferences, and navigate to the DWA-130 Preference Pane.  Once the Preference Pane opens, without needing to do anything further, it connects.  This is frustrating everyone at home.

It's also a problem since this machine acts as our file sharing server, and mail server for the family.  It needs to stay connected ALL the time.

What do i need to do to make this STAY CONNECTED at ALL times -- it should be enabled at boot time... and STAY connected.

Unimpressed with D-Link a little lately.

What ISP Service do you have? Cable or DSL?
What ISP Modem do you have? Stand Alone or built in router?
