Adapter for L450-136 wireless satellite not appearing is not in the network adapter

My laptop has been upgraded from Vista to Windows 7, and the wireless adapter does not appear in Device Manager. I don't know what type of card is or how to find out and any software or driver that I am trying to install can not find anything. I tried resetting the BIOS by default thing, but resulted in nothing.

There is a "network controller" under "Other devices", but it has no driver and is once again an "unknown" device

I am desperate to get my wifi working and would appreciate any help someone could give me.

Thank you very much

Mark

Hello

> There is a "network controller" under "Other devices", but it has no driver and is once again an "unknown" device
Sounds like the missing WLAN card ;)
What do you think?

In your case, I'll try to install the latest WLAN driver. You can get it on the Toshiba European driver download page:
http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

Normally after a change of OS you want to install all the drivers, so I think that only the drivers is missing.

  • My Windows 7 computer will not find the networks wireless after a system restore.

    My Windows 7 computer is not find wireless networks after I did a system restore. It was perfectly good wifi before the system restore and other members of my family have a great connection except me is not a problem with my router. I think I know what the problem is, but I just don't know how to fix it. So there you go. I did my restore system about 2 days after that we moved on the provider of internet/tv "Comcast" to the tv/internet provider "Verizon". what I think has happened, is that I restored my computer to the point when we had no Verizon so that he could not find the network. Now, since we have Comcast it won't identify this network either, so maybe some of you out there could help me. : D

  • Portege R100: WLAN does not recognize the network

    I have a 2 year old Toshiba R100 Notebook.
    It has a wireless adapter:

    Intel (r) PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter

    We have tried several times and had technicians trying to connect to our WAP network office. He simply do not recognize the network and we offer all mailboxes menu to connect. It works fine on WEP networks and open.
    Our network is one: -.

    Cisco Linksys Access Point Wireless-G with SRX, model WAP54GX

    It has been suggested that I have buy a wireless card for WAP networks put in the slot of the card.

    Would you agree?

    If so, then that one would you recommend?

    Hello

    It seems that the card supports only WEP encryption and cannot handle WAP encryption that secures the WLan network.
    Fact is that encryption depends on hardware and not software. This means that if the card doesn t supports the Protocol WAP for the update of the driver will not change this situation, but only a replacement card.
    So I agree with you that the replacement card may solve your problem.

    Unfortunately, I can't give you any recommendations because I m not 100% sure what card uses the WAP protocol, but you can order the Wlan card compatible and supported by the Toshiba service partner in your country. AFAIK the guy order the Toshiba parts directly.

  • Storage migration fails with the error: could not complete the network copy to path to the file

    Hello

    I have two hosts ESXi 5.5 with local storage and VMware vCenter device which manage them. Everything worked well until that time.

    Now when I try to make the host migration and storage, processing or power off the virtual machine, I get the error message:

    Could not complete the network for file /vmfs/volumes/.../path/to/file.vmdk copy

    The situation is the same when I try to deploy VM on ESXi-2 model that is on ESXi-1.

    All with the network configuration is correct. I have ping between the hosts on ESXi and ESXi and vCenter. No firewall hosts ESXi and vcenter. No physical firewall between hosts.

    The network latency is less than 1 ms. No packet loss.

    I read this VMware KB article: Storage migration fails with the error: could not complete network file copy and I tried solutions explained here, but the results are the same.

    You have ideas where the problem may be?

    Hello guys,.

    I finally found the problem.

    ESXi servers are configured with MTU 9000, but the switch where the hosts are connected was a bug documented with frames. I found the problem after finding this article http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1003734

    I run the command of ESXi-1:

    vmkping - d-s 8972 192.168.10.12 where 192.168.10.12 is the ip address of ESXi-2

    The result was:

    3 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss

    as a workaround, I reduce the MTU to 1500, then I patched the problematic switch.

    Hello

    Do you need the card network LAN driver Wlan or both pilots?
    As far as I know the piece of LAN card is Realtek (1 Gbps) and the Intel 5100AGN WLAN.

    The WLan driver can be found here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/?page=downloads
    Intel PRO/Wireless 3945, 4965, 5100, 5300

    The driver LAN on the Realtek page:
    http://www.Realtek.com.tw/

    You can consult the page of the European driver Toshiba. Other series of laptops use the same Realtek LAN card and the driver should work too.

  • Two issues here, 1st system restore will not restore, also wireless do not detect all networks

    Prob with system restore is everything goes well until the pc restarts, then get the restoration of of message without any changes have been made to your computer, this tent after several different restore points.

    The prob with connection Wi - Fi (intel pro 2200 bg) is it doesn't find any networks, pilot verified also that his permit, any help there ain't a pc wizz so any advice appreciated

    System Restore is not a panacea.  If this can help depends on what specific changes you want to cancel.

    Which leads to the question: what is is happened just before things stopped working?

    You do not mention if one of potential errors 13 to restore the system applied to you, or if none did, this error message you got when you tried to use the system restore.

    To do this:

    Tried the keys that turn off wifi nothing not even the light that says its /running activated

    say that the light associated with your wifi adapter is not turned on or off?  If Yes, I suppose that the light is 'off' now, correct?

    Further, I guess that the wifi card is internal and you have a portable computer.  What is the brand and model of your computer?

    Open the Device Manager (start > run > devmgmt.msc > OK)
    Click on the + sign next to "network adapters."
    If there is an icon of warning/error next to an entry, double-click the entry and to report to what appears under the "Device status" and "Use of the device" (both on the general tab).

  • Wireless adapters not finding Win8 network connections

    Hello

    I have a HP Pavilion P6 2340ea running windows 8. I use a Netgear N150 WNA1100 Wireless Network Adapter, this adapter worked fine until the other day when I connected a Bluetooth of Plugable USB BT4LE adapter into the PC. The bluetooth adapter is windows 8 compatible, but the PC does not recognize the bluetooth adapter and the LED on the bluetooth adapter did not indicate that she was supposed to. I unplugged the bluetooth adapter and that's when I realized that my Netgear adapter had stopped working. I plugged the adapter netgear on another pc and it works fine and detects / connects to the network. When plugged into the PC indicated above is present on the control panel of features though but does not detect network connections. I am aware that USB 3.0 devices can cause interference and I don't have any of these connected devices it is excluded. I have uninstalled/reinstalled drivers win8 to the Netgear adapter and this has not solved the problem, I tried other things are as follows: disable activate card, enable/disable antivirus/firewall, netsh winsock reset at the command prompt. I also checked the autoconfiguration WLAN service was running and set to automatic, which it is, then I tried stop and start the autoconfiguration WLAN service and I get the error: error 1503: service has failed to demand launch or control in a timely, I don't know if this has nothing to do with the problem?

    I hope I've provided enough information and I've used up so many things to try as possible.

    Thank you.

    I tried one last thing before your suggestion less. I started the PC in safe mode with networking, the device does not work immediately, I went into Device Manager and disabled and then activated the device and that he began working again, booted normal backup and everything works fine.

    Thank you very much for your help, kudos given.

  • Wireless IP addresses appear as source on cable network address.

    If a computer is connected to a wireless network with a pattern of us IP address will tell 192.168.1.0/24 and also then connects to a wired network with a different IP address scheme we will say 192.168.2.0/24 will be the traffic on the cable network never marked with the source IP address of the wireless network card?  I have Wireshark showing packet capture happens in some cases and it eventually causes a large amount of reset TCP traffic.  I don't think that the system would put a package on the cable network IP of the network using wireless as a source address.  Is this normal or desired?

    If the cable network becomes available when the wireless network is enabled I guess that packages would continue to be sent wireless.  I do not understand that the local routing table may indicate that the cable network has the lowest metric, but then I would think the wireless session should be reset and the traffic should then be retransmitted via cable connection and therefore be labeled correctly the source IP address of the wired network adapter.

    What I see with Wireshark is a packet of "pursuit"data on the cable network with a source IP address of the wireless network card and a registered some IP destination IP address.  Given our network configuration, this package creates a loop of reset TCP between our content security filter and the internel default router that fills our path to the Internet.  This problem started about 2 months ago and so far, all the research I've done are facing a problem with the laptop and have to assume it's an OS problem.  I guess there are some changes to the operating system in the way it handles packets when the cable network comes back online.  I have to wonder "I just missed this before?  I was the administration of the network for years and I'm sure I would have noticed the effects of these representations.

    Any thoughts?
