  • Compatible Wireless + Bluetooth cards

    Hello

    I have a HP Pavilion Notebook 17-e116dx and it came with a regular 2.4 GHz wireless network card. I was wondering if there was a way for me to switch to a new card in wireless that includes built in Bluetooth 4.0. The NIC in the PC can still be improved? If so, are there compatible maps that I can spend? At the moment it has a Realtek RTL8188EE 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter.  I use Windows 8/8.1 if that helps.

    Thanks for any help!

    Hi @filupskid1 ,

    Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome. Thank you for all the information on your laptop. I did research want you a new wireless card in your HP Pavilion Notebook e116dx 17. Here is a linkto your manual that shows the compatible wireless cards on page 17.

    Hope this helps you.

    Thank you.

  • HP Pavilion 15 laptop: compatible wireless cards

    I am trying to find out what wireless cards are on my list of white laptops, model No.: 15-e000sa, I want to upgrade if possible. also could you tell me if I am able to update with more ram fast ddr3 1866 or would it just be underclocked to 1600

    Thank you very much

    Hi @slapdash2201

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    To answer your questions on compatible wireless cards and memory, I included the maintenance manual:

    HP Pavilion 15 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service Guide

    Specifications: channel support double DDR3L (1600 MHz), so it is likely that it would just be less quick.

    And what follows is listed as of the supported WIFI adapters:

    MediaTek MT7630E 802.11bgn Wi - Fi adapter and adapter Mediatek Bluetooth4.0
    Atheros 802.11b/g/n WiFi AR9485 adapt
    WiFi 802.11b/g/n 1 × 1 Ralink RT3290LE and adapter Combo Bluetooth 4.0
    Realtek RTL8188EE 802.11bgn Wi - Fi adapter

    This doesn't mean you can't try something else, as long as it is compatible in size, but it would mean HP don't would not have custom drivers for it, and so there is no guarantee that it would work.

    I hope this helps.

  • Issues with Dell desktop computer wireless and D-Link wireless network card. Only able to get wireless access by checking "Use Windows to configure my wireless network". This kind of file sharing impossible.

    original title: can't see the computer on wireless internet!

    I hope that's not too much detail, but I would like that the sequence of events to be clear...

    I have a Dell desktop computer that's probably six or seven years now.  It did not come with a wireless card, so I bought a DLink router and combo card wireless, install both with the DLink software.  It works beautifully.

    Later, we through my rep AT & T DSL, I got a Motorola modem/router with wireless capabilities.  I had plugged directly on my computer Dell desktop and moved to a Dell laptop DLink wireless receiver.  No problems.

    The Dell laptop is dead and the DLink receiver has not been used for a long time.  Family of my daughter moved to our place, and I have connected his desktop computers and laptop to wireless internet, using the Windows Connection Wizard.  Still no problem.

    I got a new ASUS laptop, I also linked using the Windows Wizard.  STILL no problem.

    Now, here's the problem comes.  I moved the Dell desktop computer, connected the DLink wireless receiver to it and I am able to get wireless access ONLY when I go into the properties of PC, click the wireless networks tab and check the "use Windows to configure my wireless network" box.  Then I can connect correctly, but I don't see this computer on my wireless network.  Bad luck... because I want to be able to access share files.  When I try to connect using different assistants of Windows, I get a message to the effect that, if I used another software to connect to the program, I can't use the Windows Wizard.

    So, what can I do to remove the original configuration of DLink completely and to connect to my wireless network using the wizards in Windows?  I uninstalled the software of DLink, but it seems to have no effect at all.

    BTW, Dell desktop computer is running XP, office computer of my daughter is running VISTA, and two laptops are equipped with Windows 7.  I can see all the computers on the network with the exception of the original Dell desktop computer wireless.

    Any help would be appreciated!

  • Compatible wireless network cards for Satellite C660D-181

    Hello

    is it all the same to discover what are WLAN cards are compatible in my laptop Toshiba C660D-181 girls?

    The laptop is running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, all drivers/bios are up-to-date.

    I tried...

    Intel Centrino Advanced - N 6230 - detects, installs, wifi says "no connection is available" - FN & F8 does nothing

    Intel Wifi Link 5100 - detects, installs, wifi says "no connection is available" - FN & F8 allows me to turn on wifi power but still do not see the connections

    Atheros AR5BHB92 - detects, installs, wifi says "no connection is available" - FN & F8 does nothing

    All of the above cards work in other laptops that we have in the House, Acer Aspire 5741Z (6230 Intel, Intel 5100 Atheros work and detect wifi), Toshiba L655 (Intel 6230 (bluetooth does not work), Atheros and Intel 5100 all work and detect wifi), Toshiba L450D (Atheros works and detects wifi).

    I thought that the problem was initially that Toshiba C660D-181 is based on a chipset AMD (like the Toshiba L450D) and no WLAN Intel card would work so I had the Atheros AR5BHB92 cards instead. The Atheros installed and worked immediately in the Toshiba L450D but it won't work in the new Toshiba C660D-181.

    Basically, I'm looking for a card that works on 5 GHz. The card that moved into the laptop is a Realtek RTL8188CE is only 2.4 GHz and we have a lot of wireless activity if I was alive, the 5 GHz range is clean and I get amazing speed to use.

    Any help/advice is appreciated.

    > is anyway to find out what are the WLAN cards are compatible in my laptop Toshiba C660D-181 girls?

    No, I haven't found any details
    I think the compatibility depends on factors such as BIOS or motherboard and this, if it is always different. Any Toshiba or a laptop from another manufacturer supports various BIOS and map different mother (smart)

    But in most cases, you can get all compatible parts of a Toshiba service partner... so in all cases where you are unsure, I recommend you ask a favor for a part of comaptible

  • Try to access Windows XP desktop via wireless request a password when none has been set, and never asked in the past.

    I have a netbook running Windows 7 Home Premium (the name is Gary-asus-pc), a laptop (my wife) running Windows XP SP3 (the name is Dell640m), and a desktop running Windows XP SP3 (the name is Dell8400).  My Canon printer is connected by USB to my desktop.  Until this week, my wireless network in my house has been working well and I could access the desktop files and printer both netbook and laptop.

    No change in hardware or software tried laptop recently with the exception of the automatic updates.

    Today, my wife tried to print a document of IE8 on his cell phone and it did not work.  I tried of the netbook and it worked fine.  When I tried to check the properties of the printer to the laptop, I got access denied message.  Checking the properties of the netbook has worked.

    Thinking that something got screwed up on the laptop, I removed the printer from the laptop and tried to add again.  The wizard has found the printer, but when I click Next a window pops up showing the following:

    Window title: connect to Dell640m

    Message: Connection to Dell8400

    (in gray)  Username Dell640m\Guest

    Password

    There is no password set on any of the machines.  Just by pressing enter or clicking OK just brings back the same window.

    I closed the window and went back to try to add the printer again.  The laptop computer found the office but did not find all the printers on the laptop or the desktop.  This behavior is fairly consistent.  The first attempt after a reboot to find the printer is successful, but then asks a password for access.  Subsequent attempts are no printer.  Attempts to access the office system itself will require a password.

    I ran the XP Wizard to re - establish home and office networking on the laptop and the desktop computer.  Two machines can be, the Office can see the computer laptop and netbook and their files and printers, but the laptop cannot access anything be it on the desktop (password required) Although it can access the netbook.  All the machines were restarted (several times).

    Does anyone have any ideas what could cause this strange behavior between the laptop and the desktop computer.

    Problem solved!

    I don't know why I didn't think this earlier. The problem has been that I have constantly asked me a password for the user Dall640m\Guest. I finally thought, "why not get rid of user Dell640m\Guest?

    So, I run the Configuration Wizard from the network on both systems and passed under the names of DELL8400 and Dell640m of new names computers, changed the comment, has changed the name of the Working Group, then restarted both.  My hope was that starting a new network with a "totally clean slate" might work. I knew that, at all least, Dell640m\Guest username would not access to the network, so it was worth a try. Fortunately, it worked.

    My access to shared files and printers.
