• Satellite L450D - 11V peripheral WLAN disappeared

  My daughter has this laptop and lost features Wi - Fi during January 2010. I downloaded the latest BIOS and WLAN drivers, but the device is still missing in Device Manager. BIOS has active WLAN.

  The laptop is running Windows 7, and the device is a Realtek RTL8191SE onboard.

  I'm assuming that a windows update has disabled this as it already had no problems - works fine via ethernet cable.

  When starting laptop, the wireless light comes on but goes off then once Windows is used.

  It seems that there is a similar problem to others - I do not want to reinstall OS because I'm assuming that the updates of windows will do the same again.

  Any ideas - Toshiba problem or problem of Windows 7?

  Hi Gimster182,

  About the disappeared WLAN device, you must check this thread:

  So make sure that your WLAN device is activated correctly.

  Have you tried with the factory settings?

• Portege M200 - WLan disappears and cannot be reconnected

  Hey guys,.

  I have a toshiba portege M200 computer laptop with Windows XP Professional and SP2.

  If I turn the WLAN adapt the WLAN network appears once and I can connect and use it without problem.

  If I disable and enable the wireless network adapter or it spend some time the WLAN network is not shown. A restart does not help.

  Can someone tell what is the problem?

  Hello

  How do you disable the wireless network adapter?
  Did you use the switch on the side of laptops?

  Usually the wireless network must be enabled by using the FN + F8 option
  So if you your wifi does not work then you must use the FN + F8 combination keys to activate the WLan again.

  In addition, you should check if you are using the latest driver WLan...

  Sorry, but it is not easy to understand what you are writing about. Reboots, go... hmmm.
  You have installed some Microsoft updates or done something that may be responsible for this strange question?

• Satellite L300D-13s - why WLan appear and disappear

  I have wireless networks.

  Why wireless sometimes appear and disappear?

  Hello

  The WLan can appear or disappear because of a weak wireless signal.
  My WLan disappear and lose connection if I move to the other room

  But this issue may be related to a BIOS and WLan driver so I recommend to first update the BIOS, then the driver WLan.

• How to activate a Broadcom Wlan on a Satellite 1130-z27

  I removed the Toshiba Wlan Mini PCI card 11MBit and replaced by a 54 megabits Broadcom BCM4306-Wlan-Mini-PCI-card (many of them is sold to ebay.de).
  Driver is installed and accepted by Windows XP.
  Driver-tool says: "Radio disabled. Enable WLAN-Switch '.

  But the Toshiba-hardware-switch shows no function. FN + F8 even causes no reaction.

  Here I found this trick for a card intel: "the solution is to put a small piece of tape on the PIN 13 of the Intel card."

  How can I pass on my new Wlan card? Is there a trick for Broadcom cards?

  I'm sorry, there is no trick. I suggest you to buy a card intel, because the broadcom card will not work. I tried the same thing, don't bit not with one card broadcom.

  I had a lucent card and the thing didn t work. With a card intel: No. PROBLEMO

  Good luck :)

• Satellite A660 3rd party WLAN does not work

  Hello

  I had a problem with my WLAN adapter so I used to replace.
  Currently, I have installed card Broadcom Dell Wireless 1397.
  It has been defined by Device Manager and drivers have been installed.
  But it is impossible to turn on the WLAN.
  When I click the buttons activate WLAN, it just back to the OFF position.
  I also use Windows 10.

  Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  I own Satellite A660 - 16 M. Initially, it was equipped with Broadcom BCM4318 WLAN card. I decided to replace it with an Intel Centrino N-6230 dual band with 3.1 Bluetooth card. Replacement process was fairly easy, the problem was to make the new card working group. I use Windows 10 as an upgrade to Windows 7 Home. As you can imagine that the utility flash cards stopped working after the upgrade of the system, but Windows 10 has managed to cope with BCM4318 since the original drivers and Windows 7 registry entries have been always working in the background. The WLAN button above the keyboard worked, was so orange the LED in the front of the laptop.

  Situation changed completely with the new Intel Centrino 6230 N WLAN card. Despite he properly recognized by device with all the necessary drivers automatically responsible manager, I was unable to have the WLAN button and the LED orange work which is to turn on the radio (the card WLAN itself, its possibilities of wifi). The weird part is that the Bluetooth worked without any problems.

  The solution was to put a small piece of electrical tape on the 20 PIN of the new WLAN card to prevent WLAN DISABLE State presented to the motherboard. So RADIO WLAN is always on, so Windows 10 own wifi tools were able to switch on the WIFI network and... I see now all (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) wireless networks. Of course the WLAN button and the orange LED still haven't work (it seems that it is somehow hardcoded to support only the original BCM4318) but I don't love about it. The most important is that I'm now a lot more capable wireless network inside my laptop card.

  I hope that the solution above works in your case, 8stack. Watch the attached files to see what she looked like, as in my case.

• Satellite Pro L630-12: the Ethernet controller v v. WLAN network card

  Basic questions:
  My Satellite Pro L630-12F has (A) an Atheros AR8151 PCI - E Gigabit Ethernet Controller, and (B) Broadcom 802.11n Network Adapter.
  Toshiba continues regularly informing me that a Wireless Lan Driver update was released, which I need to install.

  First question: is Wireless LAN Ethernet controller driver or the network card?

  I have check the versions on my machine of both (A) and (B) with the PC diagnostic tool and find that (B) is the latest version (5.60.48.35) and (A) is a very old version (1.0.0.26). I download the latest version (9.2.0.316.0) of "Atheros Wireless LAN Adapter" for my machine from the Wireless LAN Driver download page (Windows 7 (64)) and run the file. But, everywhere I look, my machine continues to say that the version of (A) is (1.0.0.26).

  Second question: am I update the Ethernet Atheros controller when I download and run the Atheros Wireless LAN Adapter?
  If Yes, then why doesn't it show the latest version information?

  Sorry for the basic questions, but I found no explanations in various forums on the difference between 'ethernet controller', 'network card' and 'Wireless LAN' after searching several times. I'm afraid that Toshiba keeps informing me that I don't have the latest version of the wireless LAN driver despite my efforts to follow their instructions.

  > First question: is Wireless LAN Ethernet controller driver or the network card?

  Ethernet controller can be both; WLan and LAN in your case I guess that WLan is Ethernet controller, it would seem if the WLan driver is not installed

  Your laptop L630-12F seems to bear card Broadcom BCM94313 WLan and the driver can be found here:

  > Am updated the Ethernet Atheros controller when I download and run the Atheros Wireless LAN Adapter?

  This is driver LAN!

• Satellite A350 is no longer able to use the WLan

  Hello guys,.

  so... I started using Bluetooth earlier, use of the Internet via a cable... Today I tried to use my WLan again, but it did not work (worked well before).
  So I tried to activate it via FN + F8, but all I can see is activate Bluetooth, one for the WLan disappeared?
  The WiFi light only blinks when Bluetooth is activated. I would rather turn off Bluetooth that not being able to use the WLan.

  I think it's a similar problem
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=67514&TSTART=0
  but I really didn't want to install a bad driver or anything like that.

  I use a 32-bit Vista and my PC-Tool says that I use these networks currently (I just copy and pasted because honestly, I have no idea, hahaha).
  Realtek RTL8102E Family PCI - E Fast Ethernet NIC (NDIS 6.0) Version = 6.208.729.2008 MAC address = 00:23:5 A: 05:61:05
  Intel(r) WiFi Link 5100 AGN Version = 12.2.0.11 MAC address = 00:21:5 D: 62:D8:1 C

  I would be so happy if someone could help me fix the problem anytime soon, because I really need wireless capability soon. Thanks :)

  Former Satellite A350 was delivered origin with Vista OS, so at first I would like to know if you use original recovery image (OS) that you got with your laptop.
  If I understand you good WLAN card is installed and registered properly in Device Manager. Can you confirm this?

  I have Satellite A300 and a friend of my A350 but WLAn works properly on both machines so I m a bit confused why the WLAN option is missing when you use the FN + F8 key combination.
  I m wondering why WLAN is detected by the system but ignored by the utility of flash cards.

  I'm don't know if this will help, but try to follow:
  Enter the BIOS and set it to default settings
  Reseat the wireless network card.
  Reinstall the extra value package, and check again.

  If the problem persists after doing all this, you have to do a final check and reinstall the OS using original recovery image that you got with your laptop. It's a way more radical, but certainly more efficient to solve a software problem.

• Z580 - WLAN adapter problem

  I've got Lenovo IdeaPad Z580, with Core i7, 4 GB of RAM and 1 TB of HARD drive processor.

  A few months ago, I noticed that my BONES sometimes would freeze (make this beep sound freakin ') if I moved my computer too fast in my office (weird). She got worse a few weeks ago and seems to be somehow connected to my wireless network adapter.

  It especially simply - nothing works. Switch WLAN disappears from the BIOS configuration, etc., like it wasn't even there. If I'm lucky (as I am now), it would work somehow. All of a sudden appears again in the BIOS etc. I can even use it on my Windows 8, but... If I propose a little my laptop, it will suddenly freeze and restart causes WLAN adapter not in the system at all, or the connection is de-energized ("metered" stuff etc.). Restart adapter according to the results of system in "find no WLANs", wlan switch endangered or gel.

  I tried to reinsert the WLAN card, it sorta fixed stuff when I did it for the first time, I had a week or two without a problem, but he returned and reintegrated support is no longer.

  First question what I can do with this adapter WLAN problem?

  Second question is - while doing all this thing reinserting, my screws are a little bare now (but not completely, it is possible to get them unscrewed without any problem) because I have not noticed my screwdriver is broken and ruining. My laptop is still covered by the warranty? I do not have removed or broken any warranty seals in the process well, just the screws.

  I forgot to mention, by WLAN adapt is Atheros AR9485WB-EG.

  Information on repair mentions setting parts disconnected.
