On Satellite M70 low wireless signal

I have a satellite m70. It worked very well with the excellent signal until yesterday.

now, the signal dropped to very low levels. my wireless router is working fine (I checked with a friend)
is my wireless card faulty? How will I know?

Help, please...

Hello

This happens to you just on the mode of feeding with AC adapter or battery too? In any case has the power management of the WLAN card also at the highest level.

    I have a 5 day old L750 Satellite which can collect only 40% wireless signal less than 20cm from the router and loses signal total of about 2 m of him, turned to Toshiba support who suggested to the restoration of the system, did this and no improvement. Have you checked the Atheros driver and he said to his place to date, also checked the option to which has been suggested in other threads.

    The router is good because my vintage Compaq and ipad2 have full strength signal of several rooms by far.

    Please help as I'm pretty impressed with my first purchase of Toshiba and will return it if I can't solve this problem.

    Hello

    Have you noticed this problem only with the Eco Mode setting or also with power plan to high performance? This means that you must define * Maximum Performance * power option for the WLAN card in terms of power.

    Next to the update of the WLAN driver, you should also check the BIOS version. Take a look at the page if there is a newer version and if so try to update from Toshiba:

    Hello

    The WLan signal depends on many factors. But maybe we can solve your problem with changing some settings in the WLan card properties.
    Go to Device Manager and enter the properties of card Wlan (right click)
    You will find a power management tab. The power save option should be disabled.

    In addition, you can check another option in the properties. I think it should also be something such as a scope of the WiFi signal. Sorry, I can t remember the full name.

    However check it out.

  • Weather a barrier on the power of the wireless signal?

    FREE WI - FI, RAIN & SNOW

    If a Protocol "N" dual-band WI - FI adapter which is connected directly to the USB port of a laptop computer inside the House and the router is in the garage about ten feet, should there be a weakening of the reception quality in the good House when it happens to be raining or snowing in the area of 10 feet between the garage and the House?  In other words, in addition to METAL interference or microwave OVENS or WIRELESS PHONES... not the weather elements possibly hinder these network connections?

    I thank very you much for any information.

    Hello

    The weather could affect the signal strength. Radio transmission uses digital spread spectrum. Even if a small problem can spend because of lightning nearby, the packet will be retransmitted, you won't notice a difference. (Unless the lightning blew your 2.4 GHz wireless system telephone and microwave ovens are generating more effective disruption.

  • 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 M70: How o use Atheros Wireless Lan Driver?

    Hello
    Since I bought my Satellite M70, I had the same problems described by many on the forum and to keep band from b instead of g and the ability of its 54 Mbit connection.

    I updated the intel lan driver and I am now using intel Pro/set utility driver.
    Last week, I got a message from toshiba for download the latest Atheros driver which is supposed to improve connectivity.

    The problem is that to happen once I installed Atheros driver nothing: there is nothing that I can do with the atheros utility, and I can still only go from Intel or Windows to manage the wireless card.

    Does anyone have a good idea on how to use the atheros driver?
    Thanks for your help

    France

    Hi, Jean Paul

    I never had any message of the Toshiba who advise me to update all drivers.
    However, I don't know what your laptop is the WLan card but you can't use an Atheros driver on the Intel WLan card for example.
    If the Intel WLan card has been installed on your laptop, you must use the Intel Wlan drivers.
    Check in the Device Manager you what Wlan laptop using the card you.

  • Installing Win7 on Satellite M70-173 - query of wireless internet

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite M70-173, which I think to be up-to-date with windows 7. However after you run the windows 7 Advisor, he told me to download the driver of the wireless device that is:

    Intel (R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection

    I put t really know what it is? Is my wireless 'card '?
    In any case, I check on the Intel site for the updated drivers for win7, and he says:

    "Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection does not support Microsoft Windows * 7.

    Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection is no longer manufactured by Intel, nor Intel provide any future software updates to support new operating systems or improve compatibility with devices and third-party software products. "

    Does this mean that I should not install Windows 7?

    How can I work around this problem, do need me to upgrade and how much would this cost?
    Thank you

    Satellite or Equium M70 is old model of laptop computer designed for Windows XP Home edition, so it is certainly not taken in charge for Win7. It is certainly possible to install Win7 on this laptop, but you will not be able to make it work with all the options that are specific to Toshiba.

    Yes it's the wireless card if this card doesn t work for lack of best drivers and the best option for you is to buy the wireless USB dongle. Ask your dealer how local it costs. As far as I know that's not expensive.

  • DVD of Satellite M70 of burning low speed

    Hello world

    I bought my laptop a few months there, it's a Satellite M70 which has a stack * a UJ - 841S of speed which registration should be around 8 x, but I can't check greater than 1.2 X on DVD and 8 X on CD, it takes me 40 minutes to record a DVD, can someone help me?

    Is there an update for this?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Diogo

    The DVD writer is not the only factor that determines how fast the media must be written. I'm sure you know it depends on media itself and burning software too.

    Have you tried to use DVD media to check the burn speed? I recommend you to use well known as TDK DVD producers. I use it for a long time with different burners and until now never had no problem and the speed of combustion was always declared on DVDs.

  • Satellite M70 - 147 - which driver I need for the wireless card?

    Hi all

    I installed Windows 7 on my Satellite M70-147. Everything works fine, except the WLAN.
    Does anyone know that drivers to use (perhaps a universal) to make this work?

    I don't know what card is in my notebook, I tried the drivers of toshiba for adapters intel, realtek, and ahteros.

    Your help would be much appreciated!

    Hey Buddy,

    First you must make sure what WLAN card you have. Therefore, you can check the device ID and device for the provider Manager. Enter these codes on this Web site: http://www.pcidatabase.com/

    You will see you have the WLAN card. After that, you can try to install the correct driver for your card.

    Good luck! :)
