Equium A300D - power of the weak signal on built in wireless

I've had my Toshiba Equium A300D - 13 X for a few years now. I also have sky ADSL broadband for a few years. My signal from the router (netgear) until a couple of months has been very well. The router is located in my hall, and I use my laptop mostly in the lounge which is through a wall, 3 or 4 meters. Strength showing on the wireless icon in the tool bar used at least 4 or 5 bars but now the best I have is 3 bars force and my connection is variable with Web pages take longer to load.

If anyone has experienced this? Could there be something wrong with the internal wireless antenna?

Any advice would be great.

Hello

Have you changed anything on your phone (settings, updates), router (update firmware, settings), or perhaps in the region (placed a device which can interfere with the signal)?

  • Aironet 1200 series - power of the weak signal near AP

    I recently bought an access point of the Aironet 1200 (AIR-AP1231G-A-K9) series and the initial setup - IP configuration on the AP, the installer does a SSID and turn on the radio.

    I used my laptop to connect to the SSID that I created, but to my surprise the signal strength of my SSID was only 2 bars and sometimes 1 bar and I'm within 2 feet of the access point. However, the speed of connection/signal quality was varying between 24 Mbps and 36 Mbps.

    Why is the signal strength so low?

    Is is because I did not buy them with external antennas?

    I missed something during the initial Setup?

    Y at - it an option that I have change/fine adjust in the GUI to get the best signal strength?

    Help, please.

    "Is is because I did not buy them with external antennas?

    Yes, that's correct. There is no internal antennas on this model of AP.

    You need at least one, preferably two antennas of the same type for each radio. If you have the old 'A' radio with the paddle antenna, then you only need one or two antennas of radio 2.4 G.

    Good luck

  • Power of the weak signal with my wrt54g

    My wireless router has been uneven, since my cable company installed a new internet cable modem.  I powercycled several times, downloaded the new firmware, rebooted and still have problems.  Lately when I finally get on the internet with a wireless device, the signal is very weak.  It is low on my iphone on my Mac laptop and also on my Samsung Bluray player.  Lately a window never ceases to appear when I'm watching netflix who says my bandwidth is too low, even if he works very well for 2 months.  Is my router obsolete?

    No, it is recommended to have security enabled. Does affect your signal strength when you activated? If this is not the case, go ahead and re - activate.

  • Equium A300D - after updating the BIOS screen is empty

    Hi, I did a bios update on my Equium A300D-PSAK2E and its bricks of my laptop! When it restarts after update screen is empty!

    Is there a a sort of way to launch a recovery of bios by pressing certain keys on the power on the image of the bios on a USB?

    Kind regards

    Dan

    Hi Dan,.

    Unfortunately I think that there is nothing you can do if the BIOS update gone wrong... In this case the ROM module must be reflashed to an authorized service because guys have special tools to do this process delicate reflash.

  • Equium A300D: Software of the camera shows the last picture I took 6 months ago

    Hello

    Just started to use the built in camera on my Equium A300D after a long break (6 months). The software seems to work very well I see that it is in front of the camera in preview and everything seems good. However, when I press the snapshot button it shows the last picture I took 6 months ago. The video feature works very well!

    I uninstalled the software and installed the latest version but the problem remains.

    Any ideas?

    Ron

    Hello

    Sorry, but I really don't understand your problem.
    The last picture shows the cam that Vos took several months ago. And?
    It's a problem?

    I mean the image has been saved in the folder somewhere on the HARD drive and so you can see the photos, I guess that the images have not been removed and that's why they are still available.

    Is not a friend of the problem. Take a look in the webcam folder and delete the photos easy. Isn t it?

  • The weak signal filtering

    I filter a signal of amplitude of the 0.2 Volt connection. It consists of pickup and noise of the line. How to do? Is the software filters are enough or I have to design a filter material?

    Hi sukhiray,

    If you have less than the full version of LabVIEW, there are several software filtering options available in the category of Signal Processing. You can configure your thresholds and the order of the filters and choose between the different types of filter. The choice between hardware and software depends on your needs and signal.

  • My Equium A300D freezes at BIOS

    Someone help with this one?

    My Equium A300d froze in the Bios boot screen. Finally, I have replaced the ram and hard drive but still the same problem. By trial and error I discovered that the problem was the dvd drive... Remove the system and it loads well, put in place in and from the gel to the bios!

    I replaced the dvd drive wiith a new compatible drive but same result so assume the real hardware is not the problem then can only assume a motherboard problem?

    Has anyone encountered this scenario? Thanks for the research.

    It's really strange question. What version of BIOS is on your computer?

    If I understand you well without ODD your laptop starts properly and preinstalled operating system can be loaded.

    Have you tried to implement ODD when Windows is fully charged?

  • The full signal on WRT120N

    Hi all, I am new to this community, but I am using Cisco products for years.

    I have install my router by myself, I'm not a newbie, but tonight I did a restore to factory default on my router because I found a few problems of slowness on internet (very slow). Now it works well, BUT...

    I would like to know if it is possible to activate the power of the full signal on WRT120N as maximum as possible.

    -

    WRT120N [Wireless-N Home router]

    Firmware version: v1.0.05

    -

    Current settings:

    Mode: joint

    The network name (SSID): D

    Channel width: 20 MHz only

    Channel of the scale: n/a

    Standard channel: 6

    Security: WPA2 Personal

    SSID Broadcast: enabled

         
       

    Try to change the standard channel on the router and see if it makes a difference in the power of the wireless signal.

  • New Dell Inspiron 1764: Problems with signal low connection to wireless networks.

    I have a new laptop Dell Inspiron 1764 I received on 25 June. It is "replace" a Dell Inspiron 9100, who has learned to be too slow and too bulky for my needs. For the purposes of support, the two laptops are running on Windows 7.

    Overall, I love my new Inspiron 1764. However, I noticed the connection/signal strength seriously degraded, with wireless (Dell Wireless 1397 WLAN Mini card) card, compared to my Inspiron 9100 (Dell Wireless 1350 WLAN Mini-PCI card).

    In areas of my home that my 9100 can obtain the power of the complete signal (5 bars), my new 1764 bars 2 or less. This behavior is not as limited to only my house as I have tested in my work and in an area of less than 10 feet away from the wireless router, I have 'Internet connectivity problems.

    I tried twice this morning talk with Dell technical support. The first person I talked to tried to be helpful and initiated at least a DellConnect session with me so that he can check out some of my settings and such (However, why they went twice in my sharing settings I could not determine as they have absolutely nothing to do with the intensity of the signal).

    Unfortunately, I was disconnected from the session when I went to a place that had less signal than just next to my wireless router.

    I then go on the chat support with Dell and received another technician to speak with. I explained my problem, told them that I was in a DellConnect session with the other technician, and they looked to the top of my support contract.

    They then told me that my warranty does not cover software issues and referred me to the software Department and said it would be a supplement. I told them that I did not believe that it is a problem of software in any way, shape, or form. They told me that it must be a matter of adjustment. I spent several hours scouring the internet forums on Dell and other sites check those who have had similar problems. Some of their questions were certainly the software settings, but I still don't yet to find anything that tells me I have an incorrect setting of software.

    So far, I'm standing in my kitchen, tapping on my Inspiron 9100 with a full 5 bars, while my Inspiron 1764 is sitting next to me with a skinny 2 bars, and I am literally standing 7 feet above the room which houses my Linksys WRTU54G-TM router.

    Personally, I suspect a faulty wireless card, but how to convince Dell to hear my case and replace it instead of trying to bilk me for support of useless software?

    I hope Dell Tech Support bed actually this post, or people with the same problem can Dell refer to my previous post describing the problem and the fix.

    It IS a PROBLEM of MATERIAL WITH the ANTENNA, AND VERY PROBABLY THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN a DECK CONNECTION at the ANTENNA of the PLATE, from connections TAPE FOIL INDIVIDUAL at the ANTENNA of the PLATE, THAT DELL MUST HAVE RESPONSE BETWEEN WHAT MINE PORTABLE has BEEN CARRIED OUT AND THE SPARE ROOM WAS MADE. THE PROBLEM IS NOT SOFTWARE, PROVIDER OR ROUTER, IT IS THE PLASTIC WITH THE ANTENNA CASE!

    Dell is in fact losing more money with the hours of technical support through software patches and sending technicians with new wireless cards that does not solve the problem. They need to send and replace the plastic case behind the LCD screen with the updating of antenna and connections.

    Good luck!

  • Equium A300D - 16 c turns on but the screen does not show anything / remains black

    Hi, I have a laptop Toshiba Equium A300D - 16 c.

    It was fine until now...

    When I press the power button, my laptop turns on but the screen remains black / off.
    The indicator disk HARD is not Flash or anything... (in case that helps)
    I also tried to remove the battery, hold the power button for 30 seconds and then reconnect the power cord... Same laptop turns on but the screen is black.

    I tried to connect my laptop to my PC using a HDMI cable screen, but without success... Laptop turned on but monitor my pc showed nothing.

    I have not changed anything inside my computer laptop or unscrewed it.

    PS:
    Quite often, I kept my laptop on the bed/pillow it may have something to do with overheating or something.

    How did I get to this point:

    Yesterday, my laptop was fine, there was nothing wrong with her... I turned off during the night, but when I tried to turn it on this morning it is where I have faced this problem.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you very much
    Rejanu.

    Long ago, I had similar problem on my old Satellite. CPU was faulty. After replacing the CPU, everything was OK again.
    I put t really know what to say.
    Maybe you should contact Toshiba and let check your laptop. They have diagnostic tools and may know what is the problem.

    What do you think?

    I have a Toshiba Equium A300D who suddenly decided to not turn on - I have pressed the power button down, alt del, shot control button
    it exceeds to find a reset button and found no button at the back - don't know if there is any other command key that I can use so he can start.

  • Is it possible to disable the webcam on the Equium A300D toolbar

    Is it possible to disable the webcam on the Equium A300D toolbar at all? (i.e. just access controls of the webcam from the control panel or start menu orsomething).

    The toolbar is on the left of the screen, it's extremely annoying when everytime my mouse wanders to the left of the screen, to the top appears the toolbar.

    On some applications that I use no app anchored to the left of the screen, and when the toolbar appears, covering half of them, I have to wait that the toolbar disappear again, which can be extremely annoying if I hurried to do something.

    Is it possible to disable to appear?

    Yes, you can disable the automatic loading webcam software.

    In RUN, type * msconfig and start this tool.
    You will see the Startup tab. Click this tab and disable the webcam software (remove the mark).
    Apply the changes, and then restart the laptop.

    Now windows should start without the webcam software.

    Good bye

  • Equium A210-17i does not supply power to the top only with the power adapter plugged

    Equium A210-17i turn on when the battery is missing, but the laptop is set to the power supply dc?

    I have a dead battery and the laptop does not light with or without the battery inserted.
    The food came out 19v as it is supposed to.

    Also no led lights on the laptop when the power is connected and there is no sign of life at all by pressing power buttun.

    Thanks for any response.

    Hello

    The laptop must also lights up if the battery is not inserted.
    If the adapter is ok and if it s connected to the laptop, then the power led should be lit and it should light up.
    This led indicates that AC adapter provides power to the laptop properly.

    But if the LED turns OFF then that would mean that there is no power, and in this case the laptop will not turn on.
