Hello

you have activated the Wifi card in the small switch on the left side in the corner!

Also check if the wireless card is detected in the Device Manager! I checked the product sheet. and your A60 was delieverd with an Atheros card and drivers available on page driver Toshiba should work!

  • Related issue wireless on Equium A60

    I have a laptop Equium A60 and upward of unitll recently, that I would never use wireless, but now I do, and I seem to have run into a problem.

    The computer is (apparently) configured to use wifi, but when I went to turn on the switch on the side of the computer's wireless, it wasn't a slide, but rather as a "on pop, pop off" piece of plastic with no way to 'turn on' the wifi connection.

    Is anyway to turn on internal capacity?
    Thank you

  • Satellite Pro A60 Wireless connection problem

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro A60 which was connected to our main office using a Linksys Home Wireless - G USB adapt to I can share files and also connect to our connection broadband. The main office is connected directly to a G from Linksys home wireless gateway. It worked fine then for no reason (no settings have been changed or installed software) the laptop does not connect to the desktop or the internet. The software Linksys says that it is connected to the access point, but the internet cannot be found. Even if he says that it is connected I can't get to the desktop.

    I tried to set up a dial-up connection independent for updating drivers etc, but after the normal dial tones, he says that it cannot connect to the remote computer.

    We tried everything that we think would be grateful for any ideas. Please speak slowly and distinctly also even if I know a little technical jargon computers is a language that I'm not still commonly!

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    It's really not easy to say what can be the problem. In my opinion, you must remove all the settings and adapter WLAN Device Manager. Restart the unit, reinstall the wireless card and make a WLAN configuration again.

    In my opinion, it is very important to know if the WIFI network of the device works correctly, and if you are able to share files between the laptop and our main office. If it works properly again check the settings on our front door.

    One is the problem with Notepad or another device. If someone of your friends has a WIFI at home, you can try to check the laptop WIFI functionality. On this way, you can be sure that if the problem is caused by your Satellite Pro.

    If you find a solution please let me know what the problem is.

    Good luck!

    Hello Kwana

    I'm not 100% sure but I think that your device has a wireless card. Please check in Device Manager if the wireless adapter is listed under network adapters. If the unit comes with a wireless card on the down side there must be a label of the card wireless with identification of the card.

  • No switch wireless on Satellite Pro A60

    I just bought (second hand) a satellite pro A60EN PSA65E 01HOOU8K model number. There is just a cavity where the wireless communication switch should be. Does this mean that I can't use a wireless router?

    Hi David

    Some of the Satellite Pro A60 was delivered with a minPCI wireless network card and some do not support the WLan functionality.
    It seems that you have one that does not support the WLan. This is why you must use an external solution such as WLan USB stick

  • Cannot start the satellite a60 atheros ar5004g wireless code 10 adapter

    I have a satellite s-156 a60 with an atheros ar5004g wireless network adapter... When I updated the driver code 10 appearaed in Device Manager, I drove back to the old driver, with the same results.

    I then performed a new installation with the recovery dvd, with the same disappointing results.

    When I bought the laptop the only software I received was the dvd restoration.

    I downloaded other pilots, with the same results.

  • Equium A60 - no wireless but I don't want to use WLan connection

    Hello

    I just bought a laptop Equium A60 without the installed adapter Atheros AR5001 wireless card.
    Do I need to buy this type of card adapter to run wireless or are there other models Atheros card I can use or would it be better to buy a usb wireless adapter.

    Thank you juan

    Hello

    You can purchase a USB WiFi key.
    These sticks are cheap and easy to use!

    If your Wlan router would support WLan 802. 11 B/G or N then I recommend buying a USB WLan stick that favourable two WiFi G and N standards
    802.11 N standard is the most recent and you would get the fastest connection using 802.11 N.

    But like I said; It depends on your WLan router

  • Equium A60 - 157 HELP Card/PCMCIA wireless network!

    Hi all!

    This problem has been frustrating me for at least 2 months.

    OK, I recently bought a Belkin Wireless G Notebook Card (wifi card).
    The first time I installed the wifi card it worked perfectly. I powered
    extinguish your laptop (after I had finished working on it). The next day
    When I turned the laptop on, you guessed it, the wifi card was not
    work. I did not remove the wifi card for the power off/power on stage.

    When I went into Device Manager, a yellow exclamation point was
    above the wifi card. When I looked at the properties of wifi cards, I found the
    following message appears:

    This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12)
    If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system.
    Click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooter for this device.

    I tried unistalling and reinstalling the wifi card. I tried to use the latest Belkin drivers for the wifi card. Sometimes it works, but when I have the power turned off/turned on the laptop it s not go.

    One of the ways I got the card to operate was removing and inserting the card several times
    until he finds resources and finally worked. I put t use this method as, obviously, I might damage the cardbus slot and the card. In the meantime I ve been using a Belkin Wireless G USB network adapter. I had no problems with the USB adapter, but I prefer to use the wifi card. This is because the majority of the wifi card is housed inside the laptop, so it s not easily evicted. The USB adapter is great for wireless networks inside, but too risky for roaming outside.

    I had this problem of 1.70 at 1.8 ° C bios version, and I still have it with revision 1.90. I intend to return m wifi card in the store for an Exchange, but I have a really bad feeling that the same thing will happen with the replacement of the card. I m not convinced that the current wifi card is defective, because it works perfectly when he gets the resources.

    I tried to manually configure resources on the devices, but I have a major problem. Windows seems to be LOCKED in the automatic settings. The automatic settings check box is grayed out completely, it is impossible for me clear the checkbox. I did not take anything in the bios that can help me solve this problem.

    I noticed that there are many devices running off IRQ (interrupt requests) 19, when you view resources by type in Device Manager. These devices are:

    Standard enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller
    USB host controller standard OpenHCD x 2 (two entries)
    Texas Instruments OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller
    Controller CardBus Texas Instrumetns PCI-1410

    When the wireless card works she also runs IRQ 19, but as I said before Windows is locked in the automatic settings and do not manually configure the hardware resources.

    Equium A60-157 is not provided on board, but it has the potential for. WiFi L.e.d. on the front panel, physical location for wifi turn on side panel wireless icon and F8. Someone know if Toshiba offer an upgrade service, or can I install wifi on board myself?

    ANYONE, PLEASE HELP ME WITH THESE QUESTIONS!
    Thanks for your time!

    Hello

    I found this for you:

    Both devices have received a same ports of entry/exit (e/s), the same interrupt, or the same Direct memory access channel (whether through BIOS, the operating system, or a combination of both). This error message may also appear if the BIOS did not allocate enough resources to the device (for example, if a (USB) universal serial bus controller does not get a break in the BIOS because of a damaged MPS (Multiprocessor) system table).
    You can use Device Manager to determine where the conflict is and turn off the device in conflict. On the tab General properties of the device, click Troubleshoot to start the Troubleshooting Wizard.
    Try disabling the features of conflict. It will be interesting to know if the problem will occur again.

    In my opinion, you should contact the Service partner and ask them if the unit is ready for the Wi - Fi module. Sorry, but I'm not sure about that and I don't want to give you a bad information about it.

  • A60-wireless, rpet "limited or no connectivity."

    Hello
    I am completely useless when it comes to computers but managed to set a wireless home network and get 3 computers for work above but mine, (the A60 I think it is!) shows the network as available but have all I can get it to do is "limited connectivity or none." It is connected but I can't access all Web sites! I looked at all the forums here and I tried all the vaguely relevant suggestions and my boyfried (who knows more about computers!) checked all my settings and can't seem to find a solution. I have already connected to a wireless network at college so I don't understand why it won't work. Can anyone help?
