Pavilion laptop left off wireless

Hello

My Pavilion dv - 4 1430us Entertainment notebook has a small Tower illuminated at the top right of the keyboard which is blue to 'ON' (wireless communication) or orange/red to 'OFF '.  Lately, I can't turn on.

The operating system was originally Windows 7 Home premium until he got so tied in knots that auto repairs of Microsoft or my favorite local store tools could help.  I wiped the hard drive and installed Ubuntu 12.10.  It connected and worked fine for a while.  This is why I reject the idea that wireless circuits are not compatible with free software (which is where the Ubuntu forums brought me).

Another complication is that our ISP recently swapped our router/access point.  It was a 2WIRE and I don't have this problem then.  It's now an Actiontec C2000A for DSL.  This change coincides approximately with the stuck laptop.  I forgot to check that the laptop connected until the technician leaves (not that it could or would have done anything anyway). I do not understand how the two may be related, but the coincidence is suspicious.

This laptop uses a Realtek RTL8101E/8102E PCI Express fast ethernet controller (built-in rev02.  Ubuntu people keep telling me that I need a "compatible" card)

There is no error message.  Ubuntu simply reports that the device is in offline mode.

I tried the things:

Consulted Ubuntu forums (see above).

Consulted my ISP.  They referred me to Ubuntu.

HP e-mail. No response.

Hard reset (turn off, unplug and remove the battery, press and hold the switch for 30 seconds, plug back without replacing battery and turn it on again)

Ubuntu terminal command: rfkill unblock all

@Eddie_4,.

Was a driver Ubuntu installed installation of the poles or is he still using a native driver?  I recommend you to install a new driver for Ubuntu as inOS drivers can be a bit outdated.  In Windows, it is the wifi driver, combined with the BIOS, allowing the card be turned on and off.  I suspect that it will be the same for Ubuntu (at least it was on a previous version of Ubuntu, I used).

  • HP Pavilion laptop 1310us g7: wireless internet connectivity

    I can't connect to the internet via a wireless network.  Windows 7 tells me that the NICs working properly.  I think that the proper adapter is Broadcom 4313 GN 802.11 etc..   I tried disabling and enabling the adapter without success.  A guru of the computer club suggested that I probably have a bad card network.  I wonder if it could be a bad wireless (f12) key on the keyboard.  How can I determine what really is the problem?

    Hello Rabbi,

    1. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

    2 have you tried the mouse on another computer?

    Method 1:

    Alternatively, you can try to uninstall and reinstall the mouse and check if that helps:

    a. Click Start, point to settings and then click Control Panel.

    b. double-click system click on hardware and then click Device Manager.

    c. click on the PLUS SIGN to expand unit

    d. double-click on the mouse driver.

    e. tab driver, click on uninstall

    f. restart the computer and check

    See the following article:

    Troubleshoot the incidents of the response to the mouse or wireless keyboard

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/838398

    Method 2:

    If the problem persists, test the mouse on another computer in a different environment. If you can replicate the problem in a different environment, you have a defective unit. If this is the case, see the section "More information" for more information on how to contact Microsoft Supplemental Parts for a replacement unit.

    See the following article:

  • Turn on/off wireless so that the laptop is connected (external keyboard)

    Portégé R700-184
    Part number: PT311E-02Y01JEN

    Hello

    Can someone tell me how to turn on/off wireless switch using an external keyboard for docking station is the R700 while it is on it?

    We only seem to be able to turn on/off wireless by using the key on the keyboard (Fn + F8) construction.

    Also, is there anyway that wireless can be turned off by default at startup upward? Is this something that can be done through the BIOS, or perhaps by twisting a registry key?

    Grateful for any help.

    :-)

    I have a better idea: as you know you can use Flash cards to move the pointer on the top and in two mouse clicks, you can turn off WLAN.
    So you n t need special option for external keyboard or anything else.

    Open flashcards settings and activate the option allow the mouse to bring up maps, click on map of F8 and choose the option you want.

    It is very easy.

  • Pavilion dv7 - 4183cl laptop turns off its own

    My Pavillion dv7 - 4183cl laptop turns off its own without any warning or error messages and then restarts asking power on the passsord, etc. I am running Windows 7 Home Premium. Occurrences are more frequent over time.

    The first thing I would check is your laptop fan. You hear it works while the laptop is on, or it is disabled? If the fan fails, the laptop overheats. To protect themselves, the laptop turns off. It could also be that you have little dust blocks the air fan. The best option is to have someone to disassemble the laptop and clean, but some people have managed with the help of compressed air. The problem with this is that it blows back into the laptop. Perhaps vacuum?

    A farily common problem with most laptops is the integrated graphics processors. Over time, the GPU becomes disattached from the motherboard. If this happens, the laptop will be closed or does not start at all. Generally however, there isn't a lot of attention if that is the case, the computer stops working one day.

  • Re: Can't turn off wireless on my Satellite L500-21dts

    I have problem with wireless that is I can t turn off. I have windows 7 and I installed the drivers on the site for this series but can t always turns off Wireless using FN + F8.
    My computer laptop doesn t have the manual button to turn off wireless! Really I put t know who can support me.

    I ve asked the dealer and maintenance team, but they can t do anything! There is no online support for the brand as Toshiba who s shocked me!
    So I'm still waiting to solve this problem, and I guess there is more customers like me having the same problem and we need the real solution!

    Stand by. Take it easy.

    At first, I must say that you can call Toshiba hotline if you have any problems and ask for help. If you visit Toshiba support page for your country, you will find this number, so please don't write things on the media. If you need you can find it.

    I can bet that you didn't even check the Toshiba support page to see if you can find the number of the line.
    Your dealer is typical evidence that they don t have any idea of product they sold.
    At least, I assume that you bought for laptop computer without an operating system preinstalled. Can you confirm this?

    Back to your problem:
    All Toshiba stuff must be preinstalled in the order of specific facilities. I assume that you have installed all the drivers, tools and utilities, according to the order on the download page.
    You say that you cannot enable/disable WLAN using FN + F8. Does that mean exactly?
    This means you cannot use the combination of keys FN + F8 only or you cannot use FN (Flash cards) at all?

    Sorry my friend but to reasonable discussion, it is important to have reasonable problem description. What you wrote, it's two sentences describing problem and two sentences complain Toshiba support.

  • My HP Pavilion laptop has apparently not "Bluetooth." It can be added?

    I have a Dell keyboard and mouse (from the computer earlier) and want to use the pair with my little HP laptop wireless.  Is it possible to do?  I can't find any Bluetooth installed on this system.

    Without your identification of the HP Pavilion laptop it is certainly impossible to give you an accurate answer except to inform you that you can buy a usb bluetoothdongle to add the feature. They are pretty cheap,

  • Pavilion laptop g6-2200 CTO. Downloader driver AMD does not work

    I have a Pavilion laptop g6-2200 CTO provided with Windows 8, I've upgraded to Windows 8.1.

    I had a problem with the interface of the software for my HP OfficeJet 4500 All in One Wireless G510n-z which, when I tried to solve this problem, brought several others.

    This led to my "reset" and going back to 8. I tried to reinstall 8.1 and had issues with this OS again, so reset again and right now, I'm still on Windows 8 because I'm afraid to go back to 8.1 when 8 seems to work fine... until now.

    I posted a few questions on this web site and got a few good reviews... but... I was told I had to upgrade the drivers for the different parts of this computer AND programs, I installed.

    I have an AMD processor and went to their web site and downloaded the driver AMD Downloader but it does not work. Is there a setting on this computer crashes or is this something else?

    Sorry for the involved explanation but I worked on the overall situation for like a month now and I'm frustrated. Thanks to all those who can help you.

  • HP Pavilion laptop 2288sx g6: unknown device

    Hey everybody,

    I use Hp Pavilion laptop g6 with 4 GB of ram and windows 8.1 64-bit.

    Recently, there was an update for my system, after the update, I noticed 2 unknown devices. Here is the image:

    Can someone tell me what are these devices and how to upgrade.

    Wil be waiting for the answer.

    Kind regards
    MNUH.

    You are the very welcome.

    There is nothing that needs to be done.

    I realize that this is a first for the devices is displayed here when the drivers are installed, but I guess that's where Microsoft has decided to classify them.

    Normally, when a device lands in the other devices section (including the unknown devices), this means they need a driver installed.

    But you can confirm that they need a driver installed because under properties, he never says the device works normally, as evidenced by these two.

    Normally, it indicates that no drivers are installed for this device, or the device may not start, or words to that effect.

    I guess HP has an error on the product, because it doesn't show Bluetooth beside the specification of wireless connectivity.
