How to access the Satellite Pro 6100 wireless network card?

I'm cleaning a Satellite Pro 6100 for a customer and noticed that it has built in wireless card (something they didn't know). However, I just can't work out how to access. I pushed the little switch on the side backwardsa and I rocked forward, Fn + F8 and everything else I can think. But nothing happens.

I even found the Switch Device Network utility, but that is only to show the LAN card.

Any ideas?

First of all please check if Device Manager in the laptop has an integrated WiFi card. The switch WLan available on the website of the laptop does not. Laptops are delivered with different specifications, and the WLan card is optional.

I think that the WLan card is not installed in your laptop and so you cannot use it.

  • Satellite Pro L10 - wireless network card is not detected in Win7

    Hello

    I have a dual boot with XP and Win7 Pro.

    If I install the wireless driver from the download on XP site, no problem.

  • Satellite Pro L10 - wireless network cards are compatible?

    I have now managed to dual boot my older Toshiba L10 with XP and Windows 7.

    The existing wireless LAN card is not compatible with the Windows 7 partition and I use an external usb wireless.

    Does anyone have recommendations on an internal wireless card I can buy which can replace the existing one and is both compatible with XP and Windows 7 32-bit? Is it easy to replace one card with another?

    Hello

    Hardware upgrade on mobile machinery is very limited and most of the information you can get on an upgrade supported for RAM or HARD drive. Upgrade for all other hardware is not supported, so actually there is no info on the hardware compatibility.

    Nobody here can offer you a list with 100% compatible cards WLAN.
    What WLAN card is inside your old L10?

  • Satellite Pro L100: Wireless network card cannot find the Wlan router

    Hello

    I just bought a Toshiba Satellite pro L100, which has a built in wireless card, an Atheros AR5005g. I activated the card wireless via the switch on the laptop, and then I let the search for available networks. She is 4-5 or secured creditor and unsecured networks in my area, but it does not find my router which is about 3 meters from the hotel!

    I tried to manually configure my network to see if the laptop can locate it, but without success. I've used a network card in my last laptop, a Belkin 802.11 g that I then inserted in the excellent connection laptop and bingo to 54mps. But I want to use the integrated wireless card that captures an unsecured somewhere network in my area but the signal is weak and is very slow.

    Can someone help me please? The router that I'm trying to access is a Netger WGR 614. NETGEAR were not useful.
    Rgds,

    Richard.

    Hello

    First of all I want to say that for these questions there is not a magic solution.
    I think that you need to check many options that could have a negative influence on the WLan connectivity.
    First of all, you should check if the Wlan router supports WLan standard even as the Wlan card. For example 802.11 B or G or both

    Disable all ciphers on the router as well as the MAC address filtering.
    Then check the WiFi channels! Try to use the same channel on the map of local area network on the router.

    Which driver do you use? Try to download the latest WLan driver Atheros site.
    I think the Atheros provides the own local network configuration utility. Try to use it.

    As you can see, there are many options that must be verified

    Additional information:
    Also, one of my notebooks is not able to connect to the router because I use a WLan router that supports a 802.11 BG WLan standard and in my book the AB 802.11 card has been installed.
    So I can't connect to the router ;(

  • The Satellite Pro 6000 motherboard is compatible with the satellite Pro 6100?

    Hello, need information about mainbord...
    Is the the same Satellite Pro 6000 and 6100 mainbord?

    Satellite Pro 6000 belongs to the PS600E series, and it supports the Celeron and PIII-M (Mobile) processor.

    The Satellite Pro 6100 belongs to the series of PS610E and supports the CPU P4 - M (Mobile).

    The two laptops are very similar so eventually Sat Pro 6000 motherboard could enter Satellite Pro 6100.

  • How to install Windows XP Pro on W2k on the Satellite Pro 6100?

    Hello

    I brought a 2nd hand Satellite Pro, model version SP6100 (PS610E-029ZV-EN), P4 1.7 Ghz, 512 MB, 30 GB, with Windows 2000 Pro installed.

    I can't connect to my wireless router. The switch is in the correct position.
    I have been informed that there could be a conflict between wireless and Win2000 Pro installation. This is why I want to change my WinXP Pro using the key provided with the new laptop (dual operating system). However, I can't reformat using a WinXP Pro disc at first upward, the disc is ignored and Win2000 Pro. If I use the recovery cd (start with holding C and let go when it runs upward), something starts which I presume to be a sequence installation however seconds I see a reference to a (?) drive z, a brief exhibition of three rows of "invalid drive specification" and it still loads Win2000 Pro.

    Can someone advise how (or if!) Can I reformat?

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    See you soon.

    Eventually it s a bad boot command but most often it after pressing the C button the laptop should boot from the CD.
    You said something done drive and I think that the start of the player has been activated, but the drive is not able to read the media.
    For me, this looks like a disk failure.

    By the way: check in Manager device if your laptop has installed the wireless network card. In my view, that cannot connect to the router WLan because the map has not been installed. The WLan switch is available because the wireless network card is optional for this laptop. You know?

  • Signal not detected on Satellite Pro 6100 wireless

    I have two laptops Satellite Pro 6100, two of them are configured to automatically connect to our local wireless router which they both started.
    A computer is used by myself by my wife; bookmarks, email accounts and so on are different on every computer/hard drive.

    I have problems with one of the computers (mine) - the usual problem with multispindle connectors on the video boards and feeding, then I tried to use "his" computer with 'ma' machine's hard drive.

    His machine does not recognize our LAN with my hard drive installed. He came up with a new network found, but not a wireless network. Also, with this machine and my hard drive installed, can't the machine to search for wireless LANs, the icon does not appear. The switch is turned on for wireless signals and it works very well with his hard drive in it. The network is protected, and the two machines have the same id in them for connection which work fine in the original engine.

    I don't really understand this condition. Something in the bios? Something on my hard drive that is not recognized by the computer? the wrong phase of the Moon?
    Suggestions how to trouble shoot and fix this?

    Both machines are XP Pro on them, latest updates.

    Hello

    Also AFAIK, Satellite Pro 6100 was equipped with different Wlan cards so if use different HDD with different driver then the Wlan card could not be detected by Windows XP.

    Check if the wireless adapter is listed in the Device Manager and recognized correctly.

  • Satellite Pro 6100 - Wireless Lan cannot be activated.

    All afternoon - I have just my hands on a Satellite Pro 6100 and am impressed to bits with it.
    The only thing that is bothering me is put on the wireless LAN doesn't work. Here is what I tried:

    (1) use the switch on the left side of the laptop - push back for "wireless WE"-no led or an indicator.
    (2) use the FN and F8 for the shortcut - key no joy.
    (3) install all the drivers available.

    It is to have no chance at all. I currently have Windows XP SP2 on board and have lost count of the restarts. I looked at the page update SP2 and found a registry setting, but that does not change. I'm pretty sure that there is a wireless card installed - I found the antenna, but I would appreciate some advice please if anyone has experience this, or is somewhat an expert at this.

    Thanks in advance to you all,.

    Select this option.

    It worked before or since when did that happen?
    You could take a look at the Device Manager if the wlan device is entered correctly without no exclamation point.
    Correctly installed all the drivers and updated? Maybe a BIOS update can help.

    Of course, the laptop was equipped with wlan? Not all 6100 built in wlan.

  • LED flashing - need to know the Satellite Pro 6100 POST error codes

    When I tried to turn on my Satellite Pro 6100 laptop the Green DC in power light turned orange and started to blink.
    It flashes 5 times, then 3 times then repeats.

    I guess that this indicates a failure in the system, but where can I find what means this error code?

    Hello

    You can read the flashing code very easily short flashing means 0 long average 1.
    Then you read the complete code back.

    Finally, the error code must be converted into HEXADECIMAL value and then a technician of the laptop could know what means this value.

    The ASP in your country should provide details of the mentioned error.

  • How to connect the Satellite Pro P100 to Hifi

    I've got Satellite Pro P100. How to connect this laptop to stereo
    It's probably easy, but what I can say... Call me stupid.

    I have head that comes out of the headphone jack, it connects to my friendly hifi.
    Ill be there is a unpleasant hissing in the background. Trying to hook up my boys in head mp3 player, and that works very well.

    Any chance of some help... Thank you

    Hello

    To my knowledge, you can connect the satellite Pro P100 to HiFi only via a cable 2 RCA Audio Y adapter. To my knowledge the laptop doesn't support the S/PDIF audio output so you only to use an analog audio port.

    You can also buy a stereo adapter with 2 x cinch sockets to connect the laptop to the stereo. This card can be plugged into the headset jack

    Check this box:
    Stereo adapter

    I think you should visit the nearest dealer of portable. It can show you the right and taken in charge of cables and adapters.

  • Data satellite Pro 6100 wireless switch does not

    I just rebuilt my 6100 with xp professional, but now will not turn my switch wireless on! Which means that I can not get the Wi - Fi connection and I can't install the bluetooth drivers... anyone have any ideas?

    Hello

    What switch do you mean? Do you mean the switch on the side of the laptop or the FN F8 key combination?
    Usually after the operating system installation, you will need to install the WLan card driver and the FN keys to use the FN combination.
    Check Device Manager if the wireless network card is installed correctly.

    Even though my work laptop has a switch (power) wireless and DIRECTED on the side (under the floppy drive), it does seem to pick up a wireless connection, or have wireless options on the corresponding section of the control panel.

    Is it a hardware problem (that is to say he is ready wireless, but has not installed) or a Windows problem?

    Thank you

    Hello

    The WiFi card is optional on the Satellite Pro 2100.
    In this case, it is possible that your device has all switches but no card WLan.
    I recommend you to check the Device Manager. There you should find the WiFi card network card is installed.
