Connectivity with Satellite Pro A200

I recently bought a Satellite Pro A200 (Nov 07).
The OS is Vista Business and the Atheros AR5007EG WIRELESS network card. Until recently, everything was fine but now I can't access the interent and although the network and the wireless router is detected, I have no wireless connection. If I use a cable via the ethernet port, everything works fine. I also have other computers that are picking up the network

Can anyone help

I found a very interesting Blog on the "problems of Vista and wireless", so if you want to solve your problems, simply click on the following link and check the instructions:

http://www.remkoweijnen.nl/blog/2007/10/16/Toshiba-Satellite-L40/

Should help, some of these steps, I already did on my Satellite A100 with Vista Home Premium and Atheros AR5005.

See you soon

  • Satellite Pro A200 failing to connect with iphone via wifi hotspot

    My apologies if I get some of the jargon wrong, but I'm pretty useless when you want IT emits.

    I have a Satellite Pro A200 and had problems connecting to various wifi connections.
    The computer could see the wifi connection and connect to it, but I wasn't able to connect to the internet.

    The question of the Office was arranged by our IT support guy (security settings on the new router we too complex for my PC or something like that), but he has not been able to solve the problem of not being able to connect to my iphone to use the 'hotspot' via the wifi function.

    Someone there knows a way to solve this, or is it a simple fact of the laptop is too old and really need to update?

    Thanks for any help that anyone is able to give.

    > Someone know a way to fix this or is it a simple fact of the laptop is too old and really need to update?

    This isn't a question of the age of the laptop
    As far as I know not that support all mobile operators
    You should first ask your mobile operator if you can use the tethering service.

    If this would be supported in my mobile operator, then connect the iphone to the laptop first
    So that you have two options: you can use the BT connection (in this case check if computer laptop also supports BT) or via a USB cable that came with the iPhone.

    (PS: as far I know to attach is supported by iOS3.0 and higher)

    After that the iphone was connected to the laptop, you must activate the tethering on iphone.
    Under settings of-> network, you should see the option internet tethering it must be enabled.
    Now you should be able to see that in the Network & Center sharing control panel.

    I installed Windows 7 on my Satellite Pro A200-1 s 1, recovered all the drivers on the Toshiba site, everything works fine (less than the webcam that doesn't work even with the previous s.o.

    Indeed some older hardware options are not compatible with Vista. But if the 3rd party software supports Vista will not be problem using these devices.
    You know that Vista is a new OS and Microsoft releases patches and fixes regularly very important.

    I noticed this last fix that resolves to many USB issued under Vista:

    I recommend the update to the Vista from time to time to fix some bugs in the OS

  • Slow WLAN connect to the router - Satellite Pro A200

    I have a Satellite Pro A200 - after starting the laptop she used to find the router wireless in good time, but now it seems to have slowed on the right and it may take a few minutes until 1/2 hour phone to find the router!

    This doesn't seem to be a signal problem because when the router is found that I get a signal strength full 5 bars. Connection to the laptop the router with a cable shows that no problem also that the connection and internet access is no problem.

    I do not understand why the laptop won't find the router faster and you would appreciate the help in the understanding of the problem and how to resolve the situation.

    I don't have a lot of technical knowledge so please keep in mind when replying

    Thank you

    Hi Potter (maybe Harry?)  ;)

    You can easily find what WiFi card has been installed in your laptop.
    More details can be found in the *-> network adapters Device Manager *.
    Check this out and you'll know what driver WLan is required!

    _Regarding the question with your BIOS; _
    This error is known to me, always happens if you n t unpack the BIOS package correctly!

    What you need is a WinRAR or WinZip program.
    I prefer WinRAR and it helps to unpack all of the BIOS update.

    If you use the Vista operating system please check that another thread of forum on the same issue;

  • Satellite Pro A200 - black screen with a blinking cursor

    Hello

    I'm new to the forum and have a big problem.
    So, any help is welcome and appreciated.

    My Satellite Pro A200 turns black after the BIOS screen and a black screen with a blinking cursor.
    Also just as the screen goes black a beep can be heard which shows windows boot.

    I can access the toshiba Setup screen but not the installation of security mode.

    Kind regards

    Hello

    Please go into the BIOS settings and check if the HARD drive is listed there.
    The blinking cursor is a typical sign of a malfunction of the HARD drive.
    Eventually the HARD drive is dead and you need to replace it and reinstall the operating system.

  • Satellite Pro A200 cannot connect to the wireless network

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro A200 and Tuesday night I was able to connect to a wireless network. I received an update, rebooted and now it doesn t seem to work.

    I can see the wireless networks available via the Toshiba Radar but cannot connect to my usual wireless network.
    Also, the wireless network icon disappeared from my system tray and if I go to Control Panel/network connections, I can't even view available networks because there is no option to do so.

    Any ideas?
    the FN/F8 will work?
    Help! Please, I beg you!

    Have you tried using System Restore and restore the operating system on time earlier?
    Maybe this will remove the update installed, and you can again use the WLAN.

  • Satellite Pro A200 - Fn keys does not work with Windows Vista

    Hello

    I own a Satellite Pro A200-PSAE7E and a license to retail for Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit Edition (with SP1) is installed.

    Before installing Vista, I have updated the BIOS to the latest version available on the Toshiba site ([http://it.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/vista_drivers.jsp?service=IT]).
    BIOS version is now 2.20 - WIN32 contained in this file: [http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/bios-20080404121735.zip]

    After the installation of the operating system, I installed "Value package" ([http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/vap-20080109135106.zip]) that contains the "utility Flash Cards". In my understanding, the installation of the "value added package" should allow the use of Fn keys.
    This doesn't seem to be true or not true.

    Here's what's happening.

    -Prior to installation of the 'value-added' package, all Fn keys did not work.
    -After installation of the "value added package", if the process of TCrdMain.exe is running, all Fn keys do not work.
    -If I remove the startup TCrdMain.exe and I restart the PC, only a few keys Fn function (Fn + ESC, Fn + F1).

    There is no way (or I have not found a way) for all keys Fn works.

    Someone knows how to fix this?

    Thanks in advance,

    mme000

    I am not sure, but it may be because of the SP1. I installed Vista Ultimate on A200 and stuff all listed (drivers, tools and utilities) from Toshiba support page.

    Contains your Vista DVD facilities SP1 or you install on your own? If you install Vista Ultimate Edition (without SP1) and all the stuff on the Toshiba support site order Instructions of facilities.

  • Satellite Pro A200: There's a problem with my screen

    Hi all

    I wonder if anyone can help. Just got a Toshiba Satellite Pro A200, when I cleaned the screen, I noticed that in the Middle at the top (the part under the webcam) pushes a little and squeaks. It's not normal, I'm wrong?

    Help, please!
    Thanks in advance,
    David

    It's not easy to tell if it of normal or not in most of the cases the ASP must check the notebook and then the technician could decide if a part needs to be replaced

    I recommend you contact the ASP in your country and ask for details as well as a control of the laptop.

    Well, I searched a bit around and discovered that the solution described in article 811259 doesn t help in all cases

    So searched the Web of the 3rd party site and someone has suggested to try these tips.
    It s also from Microsoft:

    So check it out maybe it helps

    If not, then you may be forced to reinstall your operating system, because the repair option is not included in the Toshiba Recovery CD ;(

  • Seeing white on Satellite Pro A200

    The screen of my computer (Satellite Pro A200 - PSAE7) became white and will not normalize. This happens as soon as the boot. However, other processes are underway normally. Currently, I have to rely on an external monitor or LCD projector to allow me to continue my work.

    What could be wrong and what can do?

    Hey,.

    > Currently I have to rely on an external monitor or LCD projector to allow me to continue my work.
    This means that an external monitor works properly, no?

    Well, there are two possible reasons: either the internal LCD screen is defective or LCD cable but the graphics card and the software are ok if everything works on an external monitor.

    You see a picture if you move the internal screen a little? So, you can check if there is a bad connection. If you are familiar with the disassembly of the laptop, you can open Notepad and check the connection also.

    An alternative you can also ask a maintainer approved assistance. Disassembly of the laptop is not a problem for guys so just get in contact with them. ;)

When I click on it I get the error and the hourglass cursor message "Windows Explorer is not responding... "I then have to click"restart", which makes the taskbar disappear for a few seconds before returning (usually without my sound icon).

    The laptop turns off when it is connected to the electric network with & without the battery and when running only on battery, so I excluded all power problem.

    I have considered it heats up too, but I use a block of cooling with built-in fans and has not himself in a few minutes after being hit not 24 hours, so I'm not sure that's the problem.

    Someone at - it ideas?

    I think that the problem of overheating.
    The fact is that the laptop would be down automatically stops in order to avoid that the pieces of equipment against damage.
    In most cases this problem can be solved very easily. Using a jet of compressed air, you can remove the dust from the cooling modules and fans.
    I clean my fans from time to time, because I noticed a higher temperature and the laptop was a little stronger.
