New WLAN

Hi I'm looking for some advice.

I have an old HP G62-b17SA and I'm looking to upgrade the wireless card and add an antenna so that it supports the N300 and 5 GHz.

I was looking at the Intel Centrino Advanced-N + WiMax 6250 but I noticed that it said that it will not work on an HP laptop because of a 'white list of BIOS? Is anyone able to explain it and possibly offer a good alternative?

Thank you!

When you start the computer, the BIOS looks at the wireless card and refuses to POST, unless one of the specific wireless cards in the white list is present, if any card is installed. It looks the same for wireless usb devices. I have a laptop HP which will not PUBLISH if a usb sound card, because he sees it as a wireless card! There is no practical solution. There are some reckless souls who rewrite the BIOS Code and you have googled around and find some instructions. I wouldn't do myself.

The only cards that you can install are those listed in the service manual and it must be the version of HP, not even an exact generic with the same chipset card will work. I'm sorry. This is done in order to comply with the regulations of the Federal Communications Commission, but the interpretation of these regulations is subject to disagreement, as evidenced by the fact that not all read the same way laptop manufacturers, but HP is not the only one. Lenovo did something similar.

  • Option admin status when creating a new WLAN mobility-Express

    We have three Aironet 2802i, where one of them is running mobility Express.  (One of them seems to have hardware problems while we get it replaced, but that's another story...)

    When you configure a new WLAN on a mobility Express, which is "Admin State" for?  I was not able to find on the Guide to me what that really means.

    In addition, there is a documentation on ME running on a 2800's?

    Thank you

    Hi Dennis,

    The "Admin State" configuration option is used to toggle the WIFI. Keep it as "Enabled" will cause the SSID to the AP and diffuse.

    Can you let us know what specific documents are looking for wrt ME on 2800?

  • HP Pavilion HPE h8-1205eo: should I buy a new wlan card?

    I think that my Hp Pavilion HPE h8 - 1205eo:s wireless network card is broken. I can connect cable trought and everything, but he can't find any network without cable. I think I need a new card. I have a question before I go to things, might like wireless usb adapter work? Or do I have to buy a new card wlan? It would cost a lot less here where I live if I could buy a usb adapter... Thanks in advance.

    Good then the problem was with my wireless card, or should I say it was my fault. When I put on my new graphics card I accidentally pulled out the antennawire of my wireless network card. And now I feel very stupid but yes problem solved and all is good and working.

    I ve tried to find a few laptop specs for your laptop to Googling autour but al I found was info that your laptop was offered with Win7 64 bit. I was not able to find out in which country this Satellite model was offered.

    In other words, I was not able to check any download page and see if your laptop is supported for Win8/Win8.1 or not. If this is not the case, this driver can be quite problematic.

    Can you please provide some info on this laptop model?

  • Re: Satellite L100-179. impossible to activate the new WLan card inserted

    Hi all

    I bought a computer laptop satellite L100-179 wireless about 2.5 years ago.
    Last week I bought an Inter (R) PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection, this is an internal card!

    I installed the card and the latest drivers and the card worked properly under Device Manager
    When I tried to use the card after setting the wireless settings, I started to have problems.

    I then installed the software for the card help with the problem which has been the software Intel(r) PROSet/Wireless WiFi 12.1.2.0 that gave me a little more information about the problem. All the settings for the wifi are enabled except when I press Fn + F8 I get the following message:

    Wireless communication is disabled. Please turn on the wireless switch.

    But there is no switch on the side of the laptop just a plug of cache.
    I've ran out of ideas to get this working and would be really grateful for the help.
    My OS is XP home SP3.

    Hello

    I think that your Sat L100-179 is not extensible WLan.
    If this laptop has been delivered without the WLan card and the WLan switch does not exist, then you cannot use an internal WLan card!

    In this case, go to an external solution such as a USB WiFi key for example

  • Qosmio F20: New WLan driver is available - should I launch updated?

    Hi all.

    I received an email from Toshiba this morning telling me that there are 2 new drivers available for my machine.
    The first is 'intel wireless lan driver update' and the second is "atheros wireless lan driver.
    Both are listed in the "update files" section for updates available for my laptop.

    Can I take both, or it will spoil my most vital wireless connection?
    Thank you.

    The laptop run and use the wire properly?
    Yes?
    So why change something if it works?

    I think it is? s no need to update the drivers if you can use WiFi without problem ;)
    Now, never change you the running system ;)

  • Satellite A210-14 - strange problem with new WLAN adapter Intel 4965agn mm1

    The initially installed atheros wireless network adapter is just b/g and too slow for my network/needs

    So I bought a one n-project: mm1 4965agn (intel) (he got a toshiba p/n and s/n too)

    I replaced the atheros one and plugged the Intel - booted and installed the drivers - restart-> adaper works very well-> reboot - nb stops at the toshiba BIOS screen without loading all the windows. I can't even to the BIOS-> removed Intel wlan adapt nb boots and as usual.

    Please let me know what I need to do to make things work

    Hi chubbyhamster,

    To me, it sounds like this map isn't WLAN compatible with your laptop. I guess that all wireless network adapters are compatible with all laptops (assignment of pins e. g.).

    As far as I know use fast N project you need 3 antennas. I think Satellite A210-14 has just two antennas because only WIFI b/g card built in. This means that you can upgrade your laptop to the project speed N t.

    Alternative you can use the LAN card or a USB key which takes in charge the project N, but in my view, WIFI b/g standard should be fast enough

  • New WLan for Satellite L500-01u012 card

    The wifi card is dead in my toshiba satellite earlier this week, its out of warranty and toshiba shop wants $200 to replace it with a 2.4 ghz standard card.

    I'm looking to upgrade to a card capable of 5 GHz in all cases.
    I found a card that looks good. http://www.bigfootnetworks.com/killer-wireless-n-1103/
    I wonder if my laptop will support it?

    The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite L500-o1u012 and the old card was Realtek RTL8191SE Wireless LAN 802.11n PCI-E NIC card mini pcie half size.

    The description says:

    + Killer 1103 Wireless-N adapters are supported by two bands (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz), 3-Stream MIMO and IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n standards-based in a mini-PCIe half size format. +

    So it s a mini-PCI card and in my opinion, the local network card device must be compatible theoretically

  • Satellite L40-143 - WLAN does not work with the new router

    WLAN on my Satellite L40-143 does not work since I Modem Alice-1121.

    Who can help me, please!

    Hi kenny_21,

    If you have a new WLAN router you must change the configuration that I think

    The new router is visible under WLAN connections and can connect?

    If so try to connect. The standard router password can be found in the manual of it and no doubt, there will be new addresses MAC first before connect you. I put t know the exact configuration.

    Also check the options the WIRELESS card with TCP/IP. Usually, you need automatic IP addresses.

    Hi krzysiekrk,

    To be honest, your ad is a little hard to understand and I don t understand why you installed another wireless network card.
    I think that the new WLAN draft N card is not compatible with your laptop so it boot doesn t. In addition, you can use project t N if you have only 2 antennas WLAN. N project requires 3 antennas.

    Then ask a service provider authorized in your country if guys can order a new WLAN card compatible.

    A few weeks ago, I replaced the card of wireless network from a notebook of s from a friend and it was Intel 3945ABG card too. This wireless network card is still available and it will be produced so it s not one end of product life.

  • Satellite A660 3rd party WLAN does not work

    Hello

    I had a problem with my WLAN adapter so I used to replace.
    Currently, I have installed card Broadcom Dell Wireless 1397.
    It has been defined by Device Manager and drivers have been installed.
    But it is impossible to turn on the WLAN.
    When I click the buttons activate WLAN, it just back to the OFF position.
    I also use Windows 10.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    I own Satellite A660 - 16 M. Initially, it was equipped with Broadcom BCM4318 WLAN card. I decided to replace it with an Intel Centrino N-6230 dual band with 3.1 Bluetooth card. Replacement process was fairly easy, the problem was to make the new card working group. I use Windows 10 as an upgrade to Windows 7 Home. As you can imagine that the utility flash cards stopped working after the upgrade of the system, but Windows 10 has managed to cope with BCM4318 since the original drivers and Windows 7 registry entries have been always working in the background. The WLAN button above the keyboard worked, was so orange the LED in the front of the laptop.

    Situation changed completely with the new Intel Centrino 6230 N WLAN card. Despite he properly recognized by device with all the necessary drivers automatically responsible manager, I was unable to have the WLAN button and the LED orange work which is to turn on the radio (the card WLAN itself, its possibilities of wifi). The weird part is that the Bluetooth worked without any problems.

    The solution was to put a small piece of electrical tape on the 20 PIN of the new WLAN card to prevent WLAN DISABLE State presented to the motherboard. So RADIO WLAN is always on, so Windows 10 own wifi tools were able to switch on the WIFI network and... I see now all (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) wireless networks. Of course the WLAN button and the orange LED still haven't work (it seems that it is somehow hardcoded to support only the original BCM4318) but I don't love about it. The most important is that I'm now a lot more capable wireless network inside my laptop card.

    I hope that the solution above works in your case, 8stack. Watch the attached files to see what she looked like, as in my case.

  • Satellite L50T-B-13U - WiFi / WLan question / problem

    Hi all

    I hope someone can point me in the direction of writing to solve a problem of wifi with my B. L50T OS is windows 10 set to update since 8.1 but at the moment where I never checked if the wifi worked on 8.1. The problem is that the laptop detects my modem Virgin 2g wifi signal but it is impossible to connect. It is not 5g or any wifi neighbors. I checked the drivers, updates them, uninstalled them and bought a new Wlan card but still no improvement. I tried to alsi an external usb wifi dongle but still the same problem. I was wondering if it was a problem with the 10 widows and looked at installing windows 7 but that seems an another headache.
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions

  • Satellite L505-144: unable to connect to the Wlan 802.11 N

    Hello, I hope someone can help me with this

    I've updated my old network wireless at home so I can stream media.
    I replaced my old netgear G router and bought a netgear DGND3300 dual band N router to the hub and a WNDA3100.

    Office everything is set up ok on these as I can connect up to 300 kbps, which is good.
    The current settings for the router are:
    Up to 130Mbps at 5 GHz & 54Mbps 2.4 GHz"
    channel 36 = N
    Channel 11 = G

    Although the problem is the laptop.
    Now, he says that the wireless laptop is N. When I connect to the router it connects only when G setting and I only have until 45 Kbps.

    Is there a way so that it can connect to BOTH channels to get the full speed or the wireless laptop is only a single tape device?

    Thank you
    Steve

    Hello

    Built into the laptop LAN card is a Realtek RTL8191SE 802.11bgn.
    As you can see the wireless network card supports three WLan standards; 802 11 B, G and N.

    First of all, you must make sure that more recent Wlan driver is installed;
    New WLan driver can be found here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/

    In addition, you should check if 802.11 N standard has been chosen.
    You should do this in the Device Manager-> card WLan-> properties-> Advanced tab.

  • Satellite L755D-10U: cursor blinking after replacement of Wlan

    I have a L755D-10U with the built-in - wireless Mini PCI - E (1/2 height) a Realtek 8188CE card.
    This card is about the worst piece of technology that I met.

    It works when it wants to, but as soon as I started working hard, he decided to abandon the connection and fail completely to the I disable and enable - by software or by + key combination.

    I finally had enough and decided to replace the card with an Intel Centrion Advanced - N 6200.
    I put in the laptop, turn on and...
    ... BIOS screen, then just a cursor flashing at the top on the left and a 100% locked the system.
    It's nothing to do with Windows as the same thing happens if I remove the hard drive.

    No idea why this should be?
    I can see no sign of updates to the BIOS for this laptop, but can't believe that Toshiba would limit the material which can be used as a replacement for their machines.

    > ... BIOS screen, then just a cursor flashing at the top on the left and a 100% locked the system.
    > Has nothing to do with Windows as the same thing happens if I remove the hard drive.

    What happens if you remove the new card Wlan?

    You can switch the BIOS screen and is Notepad starts the windows correctly?

    If the laptop would be able to start without Wlan card inserted, then it means that the new Wlan card is not compatible. This could cause your problem

    In this case, you would need to remove the WLan card and need to use another compatible Wlan card.

    By the way: this is an interesting document from Toshiba which offer a solution to the question: + Wireless Lan (Wi - Fi) drops or disconnects completely. +
