Wmp54g crashes computer with E2000 router

[Skiat83]

New Cisco E2000 (wireless N router) not compatible with WMP54G (2.4GHz) adapter. Can't find new drivers. Crashes computer to blue screen. Can the two be made compatible? Windows XP Home and Pro (both computers have WMP54G and blue screen).

A router can't make a client computer crash, they are unrelated processes that only exchange messages. Sounds to me like Windows and the WMP54G have issues.

Btw, I found drivers on the Linksys website (pretty old, but so is WinXP).

skiat83 The computers worked fine with my old router (Linksys 2.4GHz wireless-B Model BEFW1154 ver 4) for five years. As soon as I plugged in the E2000 both of the computers blue screened - crashed hard). I restored to previous date as they would not start, replaced old router and they were fine. The E2000 caused the crash. Why? How can I use the E2000 (5GHz or 2.4GHz) with the WPM54G PCI adapters?

Hi,

Was looking for a solution to a very similar problem. We have Cisco rv220w. Laptops with intel N6300 or N6230 wireless cards, which are connected to this router, crash simultaneously (same blue screen). No problems with wired connection.

Router was exchanged, updated drivers of wireless cards, but this problem still persists.

This never happened with other routers.

Thanks for your opinions.
