Slow wifi? Realtek 8812BU USB 3.0 fix
zhlédnutí 4,8KPřed 8 měsíci
If you're using a USB wifi adapter with your computer, depending on the wifi chip it uses it may not be performing at its best, throttling you to USB 2.0 (480Mbits/sec) speeds even if connected to an 867Mbits/sec network. Here's how to check, and a fix for the Realtek 8812BU which is prone to it, in Windows at least. It may or may not apply to other Realtek wifi chips. Driver used: 1030.45.422....

Bakit kc ganyan pkagawa ng MacBook pude nmn tired nlng d Ang Dali
Brilliant, worked for my 03 gs300
Great video quick question can you run that inverter as an off grid inverter only
ME3000SP is grid-tie only.
Please note that the "I cannot provide technical assistance" disclaimer in the video description also applies to Z4 owners. The snarky message I received on Facebook messenger last month, from a suspicious-looking Messenger account with no Facebook profile (and which Facebook only alerted me to when I checked the page this morning) suggests I haven't made this clear. For those in the UK who need their GM5 repaired, www.bmwgm5repair.co.uk/ is one of the top results on Google. Yes it's expensive, but so is having to replace and recode a new GM5 if they break one, so you're paying for skill, not just for parts.
Finally did it...Thnk u
Love your information, can you get a zoom in for the pic.🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
Hi bro. First: thank you. To inform some guys here, one info from me. I didnt get the flashing lights in the dashboard while connect the pins or after that but the process worked. I have an Aristo JZS161 with TOMs ecu from an other car. Maybe because of that :)
Excellent. Thanks
Unfortunately the replacement helix blade has been discontinued as a spare part by Bosch so good luck trying to source one.
🙏🤜🤜🤜🔥
Great fix. Cool of you to give a shout out to sos... I'm trying to get mine working too. Cheers.
Hi sir i can't see ForecdUSBMode setting 😢
Try using a newer driver.
Still a very helpful vid - thanks
Thanks for the video, unfortunately that did not work for me. So I ended up installing 10.12.6 :(
Still running 10.11.6 here.
Excuse my ignorance but at the end why when you press the power button on the genius does it power off both jump packs?
Towards the end I've got one providing power to the other through the red and black cable. Also if my finger is on one pack, watch what my thumb is doing on the other.
Thanks for the reply. Oh to be fair I didn't have my glasses on but it's a lot clearer now haha @@AintBigAintClever
Didn't work for me, in fact made the results even worse.
All part of Facebook's "if it works, hold my beer" design methodology. They can't stop pissing about with it. I just tested it with a random name and it worked, but apparently Facebook send different versions of code to different people (which wreaks havoc with development of Social Fixer for example). This is in Chrome though, not the bloated Facebook phone app.
As kids we got about ten metres in and there was a dead sheep so we ran away 1989
With a wire go to E1 and TF together with the ignition on ok let see if I can do this and find it as an old lady here. I just got his car as a gift paid around $600 with DMV and insurance. I was given to save money 🤑. Yeap it was raining and it came on with check engine light too gosh. Can I return the plates and cancel all and get my money back with the DMV and insurance?
Thank you so much ❤
İlk Çıktığı yıllarda kullanma şansım olmuştu , muhtemelen özelliklerini ayarlayamadınız NV-GS400 Bu kadar kötü bir kamera değildi
Pretty cool if that was legit. But it didn't teach us anything.
Of all the comments that made no sense, yours didn't make sense the most.
@@AintBigAintClever Cool, appreciate it!
I converted mine to12v yo these battery's 9Ah x 8=96AH I'm not finishing the battery power
Speedometer don't work
That'd be a completely different fault with a completely different solution.
@AintBigAintClever ill try this first thank u.
My Noco GB70 have never worked, just runs the light and make the click click click sound. In the 5+ years I have had it and 20 - 30 start tries it has never started anything at all...
My damn 04 gs430 has a different drivers door from a 99 so I don’t think I’m ever getting my moneys worth thst I spent on a key with buttons
I replaced my alternator and it went away
Battery also at the same time so just make sure the ecu cant get any power for while and it will reset
Holy shit thank you so much. After removing the lance, shaking the washer around trying to clear the airlock. This is what worked!!!
Bro this shit stopped working for two years until I found this video 💀💀 I got tired of not being able to use this old laptop so I’m super glad I stopped being lazy and did this. You’re the GOAT 🙌🏻
Appreciate the help brother ! Cheers 🍻!
You did this past 1 am? You must have very patient neighbors. lol
Where did you get that? Did you get enough subscribers to have CZcams send it to you or did you buy it somewhere? if you bought it I'd like to know where because I want one.
I got an email from CZcams in May, inviting me to sign up at the Rewards Hub (with a unique code, so it looks like it's invite-only). I signed up a few hours later and this limited edition light was on there as a free gift. I went for it, it arrived a few days ago. I expect some will find their way onto eBay soon enough.
@@AintBigAintClever I'm just worried about scams. I won a CO2 powered salt gun from that company that makes those salt guns you shoot flies with and I was skeptical until they messaged me on FB messenger saying I won their caption contest so I gave them an address and they sent it out. Got it a few days later but haven't tried it yet, not enough bugs to shoot.
Just got an 06 Honda CR-V that has one on it. Looks like a dealer addon. I'm thinking I can just disconnect the battery terminal wire to stop the drain without harming the car. Thoughts?
Yeah. Insulate and tape-up the connection so it can't touch the bodywork.
@@AintBigAintClever Was able just to unplug it from the primary module. all LEDS went out. No tools. No more battery drain. Easy peasy.
👍 Is it IBM-compatible (Apple II)? Are games played on it? Run a couple of games on it. Are there color modes? Is it possible to change the video card on it to a better one?

That touch dim feature is pretty smart like apple's ring control. :)
So they can just get away with calling a plastic tube full of LEDs "neon" now? That's just _wrong_ but I guess nobody cares? It's neon-ish, neon adjacent, but it's _NOT_ neon so why call it neon? It has nothing at all to do with neon other than a vague resemblance. It's like neon with no "soul." I LOVE (real) neon and I think it's a shame for this imitation stuff to get away with hijacking the name. The phony neon stuff ("phoneon?") is indeed cool in it's own way. Sometimes it can even change color. It deserves its own name. But... I guess it's just another example of the _"bandwidth limited"_ way so many people engage with the world around them. It's "close enough" for them, you know, like homophones: "Meh... sounds the same so who cares witch [Sic] word you use."
And this service is called You"Tube" despite most of us watching it on flat screens with no vacuum inside. And we follow "channels" despite not tuning a circuit to a specific part of the electromagnetic spectrum before watching. And we "subscribe" despite not receiving a single item in the mail. And we "comment" without uttering a single word with our mouths.
I don't know if I would immediately recognize it as a CZcams logo. It would have to be solid red, not like one of those bladeless dyson fans.
Is it just me or everything past the 5:40 mark up to 13min just a blank video?
yeah it is
Oh FFS, it's rendered an entire bloody blank bit, I should've checked before uploading. I'll see if I can chop it.
I spent one week trying to figure out the problem, updating drivers, it drove me nuts. The ForcedUSBMode worked for me. Thanks so much!
Make a schematic
The newer HC is all over the NV model. Far more natural colours and better light use, especially at twilight. Tech and values moved fast
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! As only a moderate-level user I had to watch this video about 7 or 8 times, going back over and over some portions, but I finally got it to work! I am using an 8 year old Macbook Air that works fine and I see little reason to upgrade as long as I can get done what I need to. I run OSX El Capitan 10.11.6 because that's all it will take. (I was told I could have a tech force a newer OS but that I might lose functionality. No thanks.) I just back this machine up and will upgrade when it gives up the ghost entirely.
Thank you for this video! I have problems with my Wifi USB-Card from time to time. It works most of the time but if it doesn't, it keeps disconnecting every couple of seconds. I already downloaded a driver from the manufacturer's page (mine is from Maxesla), but that didn't seem to help. I tried reproducing the steps in regedit, but didn't have ForcedUSBMode or the following ones. After downloading the driver from the description, those entries are now there. If the new driver didn't fix the problem already, I know where to return to. :)
Mines is smoking what should I do
Does this work for 400’s too?
I'd expect it to work on any Toyota/Lexus vehicle of around the same age.
Not every clock looks like that bad. Here i have this which circuit is not same to you it has two circuit. 1 is on the top, and another is on back. But the body design is same to you
Very weak motor
Mine connects to usb 3 but is still slow, the internet only works on a 2.4ghz connection too, if i connect the the 5ghz it connects with no internet, is this a driver issue?
That's an odd one. Does it connect properly at 5GHz if used at USB 2.0 speed? Worth trying different drivers, worth trying on a different computer if you can.
Thank you so much for useful information :)
I am unable to get my IS2000 -00 into programming mode. Any clues?
Can't believe it! It worked!!! Thanks a bunch
