Lion wont let me Bootcamp!

I'm having the same exact problem. It's very frustrating because these drivers are not available elsewhere.

Mirrors, idiots, use them.

Donjar posted the solution in another thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3223773?answerId=15851271022#15851271022

Go into System Preferences - Network - Advanced - Proxies

Uncheck "Auto Proxy Discovery", click OK, Apply

Apparently many of Apple's built-in downloaders can't cope with Apple's built-in proxy configuration. LOL.

While we all have MacBooks in this forum most of us don’t have Lion. There's a Lion Support Community where everybody has Lion. You should also post this question there. https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.7_lion

And in the Boot Camp forum https://discussions.apple.com/community/windows_software/boot_camp

I am also having this problem. I called into Apple Support and they said that it is a "Windows problem". Did you find a solution? If so, please share!

Thanks

I tried this, but didn't work in my case... any other suggestions?

The fix that Frank Nospam offered is actually a fix for another problem that involved the Boot Camp assistant not being able to download the Windows Support Software.

I was able to fix the wireless issue in Windows 7 on my 2010 iMac after talking to Microsoft for an extensive amount of time. I changed two variables at once so I am not quite sure if they are jointly sufficient to fix the problem or if just the former will do the trick (I would try step 1 and if it does not work continue with step 2):

1. I changed the channel that my wireless router used.Go to Apple Menue> About This Mac> More Info> (System Report..., if using lion)> Open the Network Category > Then select Wi-Fi. This will list the wireless networks with a visible SSID in your area. Scan for a number that is not being used by the visible networks. If your wireless router/modem is using a channel that is used in high volume, then this could be the problem. Connect to your wireless router via ethernet and the channel being used.
   
2. On the Windows side I uninstalled the Atheros package in Control Panel "Program and Features". I then went to Device Manager and Uninstalled the Atheros Driver under the Network Device category. Then I restarted. I was then apple to connect to my network by typing in the SSID manually. However, although it now connects fine, It does not "Connect Automatically" ever time windows starts up I have to retype the SSID.

I hope this works for more people, it was really a pain figuring all this out.

Also make sure to completely restart Bootcamp after you make the change.

The Auto Proxy changes didn't work for me UNTIL I restarted Bootcamp a few times. Then it worked.

The box was already unchecked.

:-(

I love you forever! i nearly pulled my hair out trying to fix this!

I was using ethernet and I had the issue but when i unplugged my ethernet and was on WiFi it Worked , its busy downloading right now.

Thank you so much. You are a star ➕

thanks !!!!

Mine was already unchecked as well! This is not a Windows problem its Apple, probably not wanting you to use Windows I suspect! Can somebody please help! Thanks

Im having this problem as well, which means its not us, its Mac/Apple. Annoying! Of course they wont do anything to help. USELESS
