Intel centrino advanced-n 1030 Two connections per startup

Hi there!

My specs:

Dell Inspiron n5110 laptop

Intel Centrino advanced-n 1030 network adapter

Windows 7 64bit professional

-(freshly re-formatted and does'nt contain any external installation except the network&graphics driver)

My problem :

This order of operations always crashes the network adapter:

Startup completed -> select a network -> connected -> disconnect ->

reconnect-> connected -> disconnect -> trying to connect to any network -> point of failure.

What do I mean by point of failure:

1) blue spinning disk Wifi icon gets stuck

2) trying to disable network adapter via "change adapter settings" disables nothing

3) trying to restart network service WlanAutoConfig - process gets stuck

4) this problem doesn't go away until I restart my computer.

When I startup safe mode with networking this problem disappears.

Video demonstrating the issue:

In safe mode with networking:

Hi MuppetJumper, I am sorry for the issue.

Let's try connecting with Intel® Proset Software.

http://www.intel.com/support/wireless/wlan/sb/CS-025793.htm Intel� Wi-Fi Products; Connect to your wireless network using Intel� PROSet/Wireless Software

Please provide the driver version in case the issue persists.
