Pavilion dv6449us wireless card is not not recognzied

I have a Pavilion dv6449us which Broadcom wireless adapter is not recognized. I replaced it with another, and it is still not recognized. The light on the switch that allows me to turn off the wireless service is orange. There is orange if I turn it on or off.

I am running Vista 32-bit SP2.

Should I assume it's a hardware problem on the motherboard? Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Thank you very much for the research.

Hello

I should have read your original thread more closely.

Thank you very much for the research.

You replace it with an identical module?

I didn't know you were already inside the laptop. Are you sure that you have reconnected the antennas?

Here is a link to a long thread seriously on the problem with the dv6000 series laptops wireless.  When they are under warranty, HP replaced the modules wireless with a newer version.

  • HP 15-r240tx: wireless card driver not install (missing)?

    Hello world

    Recently I bought HP 15 - r240tx (FREE DOS) from Flipkart, I installed windows pro 8.1 as soon as I received the laptop.

    I downloaded all the drivers from the HP driver page and installed most of them.

    My nvidea, audio, display, usb etc drivers work fine but my Wireless card is not.

    I tried the realtek driver, but it is said that the network cable is not connected.

    "" On the help desk, it gives the same error: "connect a cable Ethernet in this computer"

    Also the button on the wireless keyboard is always on (white) and never goes.

    I'm confused, am I missing a driver or something? Can I still a wireless adapter?

    I would be happy to provide more information...

    Thank you.

    Hi @Gauravdeep .

    Thank you for your response.

    Your network card should not be listed in the other category.

    I suggest that you remove the network device and unknown in the other category.

    Then search for the hardware changes.  This should then list the network under network adapter.

    Once this has been accomplished, ran the HP Support Assistant to find the drivers for your network card.

    Good luck!

  • PC with wireless card will not connect to the login of the user (Windows 7 RC)

    My PC uses a Rosewill (RNX-G300EX) wireless card with the software and drivers of Railink.

    With Windows XP (Pro) PC would connect to my home network and the internet on startup without user logon.  It is important to me because the data that I want to use on the network on this PC, and I don't necessarily want to have a user logged on to do.  I also have immediate internet access to connect remotely with TeamViewer, which worked perfectly with Windows XP.

    Since my switch to Windows 7 RC, I don't get the immediate connection through the wireless card.  It does not connect to the local network or the internet until a user logs on.

    Articles I checked:
    Driver - Microsoft actually already provided an updated driver that were obtained through Windows Update.  The driver for the wireless card should not be a problem.
    Power settings - I checked in advance for the power settings in Windows 7 and made sure that the wireless card has been set 'Maximum Performance '.
    Properties of the device - I have checked the device properties for the wireless card and made sure they were NOT defined to allow the OS to turn it off to save energy.

    I missed some type of parameter which is a novelty for Win7?  My computer with a wired network connection works fine with Win7 and is accessible at startup without user logon.

    First of all, thank you for the Mark test.  But the problem was not to have the connection when a browser is opened.  To open a browser, a user needed to be connected... with a logged-in user, the wireless adapter worked fine.

    Now, to answer my own question for someone else who might read this.

    I sent this message to Rosewill.  They advise that Ralink (spelled correctly this time) had not yet developed a good driver for Windows 7.  Windows Update apparently used a Vista driver and Windows 7 is apparently a bit different... or just Ralink is not cut with Vista either.

    So, I tried a Netgear USB wireless adapter.  BINGO!  The computer automatically start this device.  There is now a network connection to start.  TeamViewer now shows the computer as being online without that person may be connected.

    ANSWER: hardware
    RALink is a failure by juggling the time.  If you are looking to buy an adapter wireless network with a Ralink chipset, don't.  The link that Rosewill support sent me for the Ralink drivers was broken.  The Ralink site shows it as having certificate problems and IE8 does not recommend open it.  They are apparently dropping the ball.

    I'll buy a new wireless network adapter.

  • HP dv6815nr: Wireless Card will not connect to internet

    Hey people, trying to make my old laptop back to semi in working order.  Did a fresh install of Vista, but the wireless card for some reason any will not access the internet, says "local use." Internet works as the other computers in the House are connected on the wireless and when I connect the ethernet, features of connectivity cord.  Crossed and uninstalled/reinstalled the driver.  I have no special security here, just the windows firewall, which I disabled the thought that he could block, but it was not the question.  Other ideas you can come up with that would be great.  I have also included the hardware ID for my wireless card.  Pilots have been taken off this site from hp for my computer model as well.

    Hello:

    You need to install a driver update... the problem is probably your router is too new for the old driver wireless deal.

  • Satellite P20-604 - how do I know if it has a wireless card or not?

    I have a P20-604, which I think was not preinstalled with a wireless card. Just to make sure that my details are:

    Model No.: PSP20E-0Du43-G3
    Serial No.: 14735613G

    If she does not have a wireless card, how do I determine what parts to buy so I can set up a wireless connection?

    Thank you.
    Seem

    Hello

    As far as I know that the wireless card is optional on this unit. This means you have the opportunity to upgrade the unit with the wireless Mini-PCI card. At the bottom of the unit, you will find a machine slot for this card.

    Please visit this site to check what wireless card is compatible with your device:

  • Satellite Pro 4600 Wireless card does not work with WIN2K?

    I have a Satellite Pro 4600 with UK dealer PA3070U-1MPC wireless operating with Windows 2000 card

    The wireless client Manager detects the network from my wireless router and the signal is excellent and I see all the Green swhowing bars.

    But I can't mske a connection in 'connections' wireless says "network cable is disconnected.

    the router works well with other laptops in my house.

    I have the latest version of Win2K also downloaded and installed the latest versions of client manager and WLAN driver for win2k to the toshiba Web site.

    'Support of toshiba in Turkey' told me ' I need another driver for Win2K for my driver wireless card cause win2K on the toshiba site isn't for "thie" wireless card ". I have been waiting for this for 3 weeks now and couldn't join the UK level 3 elusive support who supposed to have this driver. I saw on the internet is the same wireless card was sold as an accessory "made by toshiba" and he said that it is compatible with Wim2K

    What I then please? It works with Win2K, is it "another driver" and so on?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I don t think that there is something wrong with the driver because you can receive signals from router (green bars). If the driver WLan would be a mistake if wouldn t receive all signals.
    Please check device manager. If the wireless card is recognized if you are using the correct driver and the driver has been installed correctly.
    Please see this page:
    http://209.167.114.38/support/TechSupport/TSBs/all/-TSB000705.htm

    In my view, the message "network cable is disconnected" appears because your (NOT wireless) LAN cable is not connected. This post has nothing to do with the question of Wlan.
    You should check your WLan settings again.

  • Satellite 1905-S303 PCI Wireless card does not start code 10

    I put a PCI BCM94306PM broadcom wireless card in my laptop. The laptop is equipped with led however one is damaged and can not be connected, these cards may work with only one side and I even read somewhere that they can work on a short range with no led. My problem is the Device Manager indicates that the device cannot start code 10. I have a fresh install of XP Pro SP1 (not from the original restore disk). With this in mind, I think there must be some Toshiba utility or the missing driver to allow the map to work. Any help appreciated.

    Hello

    Code 10 means that it is not present, not working not properly, or does not have all the drivers installed.
    In this case you need to download the latest driver on Toshiba website and install it.

  • Satellite P750 - wireless card does not work

    PSAY3A - 02q 001. Laptop is around the age of 20 months. Turned on this afternoon and the Wireless does not work. Atheros AR9002WB-1NG. Can't b on / off switch material. The switch will beep when pushed. Network troubleshooting indicates the card is not activated. Card is always detected in windows.

    I feel that this indicates that the card has failed. Any thoughts?

    was soon Simon

    > Card is always detected in windows.
    Does that mean exactly?
    WLan is listed in Device Manager?
    And if SO, have you tried reinstalling the WLan driver again?

    If you tried that, do it!
    Uninstall the Wlan driver (in Device Manager), download the latest driver WLan driver Toshiba page, install the driver, reboot the laptop and try to set up the connection.

  • Satellite L300-17N (PSLBCE) - wireless card does not work

    Hello

    I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite L300 (PSLBCE) that came without any operating system and the dirvers. I installed WXP PRO SP2 above and downloaded all the drivers from the Toshiba site. Everything has been installed ok and functional except for the WLAN card. The wireless network card, it is a Realtek RTL8187B but it is not recognized by my laptop: if I Check Device Manager it does not appear (it does appear that "Network controller" with yellow mark). Then I went to Realtek website and download new drivers from there and installed again... also with these dirvers WLAN card still not recognized.

    No idea this coud be the problem? I don't know that I have downloaded the correct dirvers from Toshiba Web site as well as the Realtek site... but none of them helped. The chipset drivers have also been installed and also the last BIOS version (my BIOS version is newer than the one on the site of toshiba with the drivers for this model)
    May this be a conflict with the other dirvers or WXP PRO SP2?

    Thank you

    Hey Buddy

    Satellite L300-17N does not support Realtek RTL8187B but Intel 11 a/b/g (13ch) - Golan Wlan card.

    I recommend to visit the portal of Toshiba Europe WLan and recommend to download and install the driver Intel WLan from here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/?page=downloads

    Here, you can try the Intel PRO/Wireless 3945/4965/5100/5300 driver package!

    I would appreciate your comments

  • Wireless card is not on the Satellite C650-15U

    Hello
    I have a Toshiba Satellite C650-15U, this morning I tried to connect to the Net via wifi, but I saw that there is no connection. In Control Panel, there is no WiFi card, it seems to me that I have no card wireless at all!

    When I tried to reinstall the driver, the message: «card wirless not...» "is displayed. the only way to connect to the net is the cable.

    Can someone help me please.

    Can you enter check and if Device Manager card WLAN is in the list?
    Control Panel > system > Device Manager

    It should be listed under network adapters.
    Maybe some unknown device appears in Device Manager?

  • Atheros AR9285 802.11 wireless card does not work.

    Wireless for my laptop HP that atheros AR9285 recently stopped detecting my router while I have my Netgear G54 WGR614v10 encryption card any type of security, I chose, but it detects my router if I switch off my encryption.

    I read a post from Paul_Tikkanen Atheros WLAN Driver corrects connection issues with many new routers (Linksys, Netgear, D-Link, etc.), I downloaded the driver and installed it but it has not made a difference.

    I also watched to make sure that bluetooth was not on, I read somewhere that it might interfere with my wireless card, but it was not on.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!  Thank you

    Windows 7

    OK, this is strange, and then we will have to check each setting security on your router and your network card to make sure they match. Access your routers webpage bios and go to network security, if possible on your PC to cable and take note of the security settings and compare them with the security of network adapter settings.

    ~ Bios of router ~
    * Usually, which would be the mode key staff/Enterprise wpa or wep.
    * Then check that your type of encryption on the router security example would be AES or TKIP.
    * And then check your 802.11 mode.

    ~ NIC ~.
    * go to start button or charms right mouse click Select Network option and click. * highlight of the WiFi adapter which is having right mouse questions click.
    * then choose status to the next screen, click Properties wireless.
    * then select Security tab, try this on your laptop which works as well to make sure everything fits.

    Something must have went wrong with the installation of the driver. I think you need to remove or back the driver, restart your laptop and let windows update or HP support assistant app find the right driver for you if it does not.

  • Wireless card working not

    I have a 64 bit Vista computer. (at home).  Suddenly, the wireless doesn't work.  The router works. I have malware and virus up-to-date analyses.  I can go online with the hardlined of the computer.

    The driver (Intel) R WiFi Link 5100 AGN - is up-to-date

    I move the power switch and the led does not illuminate.  Am I safe to assume that my wireless card has gone wrong?

    I did a restore of the system without success.

    Any other suggestions before replacing the card?

    If I replace the card do I replace with the card laptop external or internal.  I have the slot I can do an external card.

    Thank you

    Hello

    If the switch does not illuminate while the unit is probably bad. Check with the system
    manufacturer and their forums (if any) for known problems, especially if a guarantee is in place.

    Double check/settings (BIOS/CMOS) often F2 then attention screen as you launch - check to
    see if there is a setting to enable/disable - if so check that it is enabled - if you find yourself using
    another adapter turn it off then it. If no enable/disable in the BIOS, then if you end up
    using another adapter, then DISABLE the WiFi device present in the Device Manager.

    If you need another WiFi device the easiest would be to use a USB WiFi adapter.

    I hope this helps.
