  • Satellite P300 - re-connection Bluetooth problem

    Good day to you all,.

    I bought a laptop Toshiba P300 BB with WiFi and bluetooth Windows Vista certified.
    Everything works fine with only the exception of the connection between my mobile phone (Nokia 6300) and the program "Nokia PC Suite"
    When I put the PC in 'sleep' by closing the lid of the screen, the bluetooth with the phone stop connection (it seems to be ok)
    When the PC is wake up by opening the lid of the screen, it will start, but the bluetooth between the phone and the PC (Nokia suite) connection is not recognized. Even trying to do it manually.
    To reactivate this connection automatically, the computer must be stopped and restarted re - a.

    The PC power is set to power and battery on "never stop".
    The action of closing the cover of PC screen is set to 'sleep' (French intelligence)

    What is going on? and what needs to be done to fix this problem?
    All your 'lights' on this topic will be welcome
    Thanks a lot

    Hello

    This question must be post at Nokia. They have designed this software and before software is released, it must be tested. I assume that they test it on several different laptops and desktop computers.

    So why this third party software doesn't work on Toshiba must be answered by Nokia.
    Computer laptop manufacturers don't offer support for this software and cannot be responsible for the feature.

    In any case, for me is not the big problem. It cannot be that difficult to turn off the connection before switching in standby mode, or maybe close to Nokia PC Suite. After waking up, start the software again and it should work properly.

    Hello

    I use talktalk as my internet provider.
    I started having an intermittent connection and the internet on the router light goes red. Its a d-link router.

    3 weeks a vist to a bt tech they now tell me that the problem might be my laptop.
    How could it when he connects and then removes the iradic same connection.

    Hello

    You said that the router disconnects Internet. Right?
    So how can have this cell phone number? Sorry, but I don t understand this

    In your case, I recommend to check the settings of the router.
    You should check the update of the firmware and should also check if other computers laptops/computers connected to the same router would have the same problems.

    If you are sure that your router is OK 100%, then you should check the notebooks of WLan.
    In such cases, it s advisable to update WLan driver

  • Bluetooth network and Internet connection sharing problem

    I am putting in place a network via Bluetooth between two computers later with Toshiba Stack installed and to share the Internet connection with the second computer.

    On the computer of trees I put Internet connection sharing, and for this reason, it automatically assigns addresses TCP/IP for the Bluetooth Personal Area network (192.168.0.1).
    On computer 2, I put everything to get it automatically. Firewall (Kaspersky) disabled.

    When I connect 2 Bluetooth devices, everything looks fine, the 2nd automatically gets the IP address, I can ping both computers and Internet works also on the 2nd computer, for a few seconds! After that, it appears as the 2nd computer is disconnected from the network... what could be the problem?

    In the case of the observer under the System tab, I found information like these:
    2nd comp:
    The system has detected that the network \DEVICE\TCPIP_{E44D18EB-91F5-4 adapter has been connected to the network and launched a normal operation via the network card.

    The browser has forced an election on network \Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{E44D18EB-... because a master browser was stopped.

    and the 1st model also appears this:
    The system has detected that the network Bluetooth adapter... Area Network - Packet Scheduler Miniport has been disconnected from the network, and the network adapter configuration has been released. If the network adapter was not disconnected, this may indicate that it has malfunctioned. Please contact your vendor for updated drivers.

    In your case, I would look at the following Web site:
    http://APS.toshiba-tro.de/Bluetooth/redirect.php?page=pages/HOWTO.html
    It lists the following document:
    "Internet on PDA via PAN using Notepad as a gateway."
    In your case, the PDA is another laptop, but the procedure should be very similar.
    I would check the firewall settings later if it still does not work.

  • Connection DAQ problems

    Hello

    What I want to do is quite simple (but I just can't understand ). I want to connect to an analog input to an analog output, but check this as a relay. For example, when the switch is true, my ankles are connected to the entrance on A pins passed through to the output on a PIN B. Then when the switch is set to false, the A input pins are not connected to pin B (or B axis would be output 0V).

    Problem: In the case when my switch is true, entry is passed correctly to the output. For the case when my switch is set to false, I get errors saying: "no sample provided to DAQmx don't Write initialize stamped generation." or "value required is not supported for this property value. The value of the property may be invalid because it is in conflict with another property. »

    I know that the problem is that the DAQ assistant wants some kind of entry at any time, but I'm not sure what to give him to do nothing exit.

    Attached are two attempts, I did.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thank you

    Nevermind, I figured it.

    Under the manipulation of the signal, I used a relay, which did not work before, but I had to change ' out when relay off "of the 'empty' to 'zero '.

  • Connectivity WiFi problem

    Hello

    Hi George,.

    There is a good chance it's actually a connection in Greece that is causing the problem. For example, if you were in a hotel with only one router or router to elderly with multiple people who use the internet, it will cause the internet is very slow. Next time you travel in Greece trying to access the internet at the airport. Airports generally have a better router and the wireless infrastructure in place, and you see how you internet high speed is there.

  • Connect disconnect problem (SL 500, windows7)

    Hello friends,

    I am facing a weird problem with my 500 SL with Windows 7 (I also lucid Linux installed on the system).

    (Note: my laptop came with Vista)

    As I begin my computer after it was closed (and NOT for a reboot) it keeps beeping sound from the start connect-disconnect power until I have completely load the operating system. (independent of windows or ubuntu) But after startup is complete he stops himself and he went after it. Anyone faced this problem? All thought it might be because?

    Some observations and comments on my machine.

    1. this product only when I start and the machine not on reboot.

    2. my vista has been currepted earlier. s I reinstalled using an another OEM my volume keys and the thinkvantage (blue) button does not work since then. (This beeper number is one or two weeks now)

    3. I noticed a little slow start for 7 but still all right.

    4. I have thinkvantage Manager of power installed. (It shows connected and disconnected when the ringing lights)

    5. my battery is old enough has around 30-40 min capacity.

    Could be it is bad, or the power port where it connects. Only way to check is by connecting another adapter compatible lenovo (good).

  • Connect to problems after Restore Point

    My DSL worked very slow and this past weekend, I lost the volume on my Media Player.  I did a reset of my computer and a comprehensive analysis of Norton Internet Security, now I am unable to connect to MSN and my call last night to support has been met with "MSN support was down during the last 48 hours and we don't know when we'll be back running."   I can't get into "Hot Mail", but it takes time and I can not move all payments.  Is it a problem others have?

  • HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m connection cavity problem

    Hello

    I bought a HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m today and have successful connected to my Wireless N network.  My problem is that every time that I reboot the printer there connect lasts for about 30 seconds and then gets BOUNCING and then stops responding all together.  It is repeatable, and happens whenever I have restart the printer.  All other nodes on my network will continue to work perfectly, so I don't think it's my router that is at fault or one of my computers that I can reproduce this problem since.

    As you can guess it is really frustrating having a printer that works wirelessly for 30 seconds and then stops.  The printer itself shows a very good wireless signal all the time so I don't understand what the problem is.  Any help would be appreciated, because I rather like this printer and don't want to shop for something else.

    The Linksys WRT600N is a wireless router simultaneous dual-band 802.11n.  There are a number of things to try:

    1. Please check that the width of the channel setting and 2.4 GHz band is fixed to 20 MHz only (you can still use the 5 GHz for customers of 40 MHz band).
    2. Make sure that you are not running in 802.11n mode only (it is not well defined by the IEEE 802.11n standard).
    3. If you're still having problems, open the printer's internal web page by accessing its IP address.  Select network, then wireless (802.11), and then advanced.  Scroll down to the bottom of the page and check the setting for in an infrastructure network use 802. 11 b / g behavior.  Press on apply.
