Portege R700 - 3G wirless internet 'off '.

I travel a lot with my R700 laptop and use the high device mobile broadband 3G almost everyday of the week.

However, the mobile broadband has suddenly stopped working, and the Wireless Manager application reports that it is turned off. (It is not!)
I also note that the blue light that indicates a signal mobile broadband is no longer present.

I tried all the usual stuff such as a reboot, the wireless switching on and off the power, etc.
I also checked in the Device Manager, where it is reported as an Ericson FG3607gw adapter and is supposed to work correctly.

Someone at - he of the clues as to what went wrong?
I think that it may just have failed due to old age. (The laptop is five years).

Wide device is available as a spare mobile bandwidth, and it is easy to change.

(I use Windows 8 x 64 and installed the latest driver Ericson there are a few butterflies.) The BIOS is also updated.)

However, the mobile broadband has suddenly stopped working, and the Wireless Manager application reports that it is turned off. (It is not!)
I also note that the blue light that indicates a signal mobile broadband is no longer present.

If the led does not 'blue' light the 3G module is not IT.
It would be interesting to know why you are sure that the 3G module has been activated 100%.

I also checked in the Device Manager, where it is reported as an Ericson FG3607gw adapter and is supposed to work correctly.

In Device Manager, you will see the devices that are recognized by the system... but this does not mean that the module feature (i.e. WiFi or 3G) is activated...

However, I think that you should first try to reinstall the drivers.
First uninstall the driver 3G since the Device Manager...

There is also a control utility power of RF G 3 for Win 7. The '3 G RF Power Control Utility' active your 3G to start... this software is not available for Win 8 / Win 8.1 but check if you could install the version releaed for Win 7.

In any case, a newer driver of Ericson G 3 was released for Portege R930 series.
Check if you get the 3G enabled using this new version of the driver.

    Hello

    I am the owner of Portege R700, with Windows 7 x 86.
    I want to find a way to disable WLAN automatically when I plug Ethernet.

    I tried to enable the following setting:

    "Device Manager", "Network Adaptaters", "Broadcom 802.11n", 'Advanced', 'Disable on cable connection' = enable. "

    But it does not work. Do you have another idea for me?

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello

    I think that to do this automatically, you should not use certain software/tools for part 3.

  • Portege R700-S1321 - cannot set the resolution of 1366 x 768

    I have exactly the same problem, as shown in:

    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=64809

    The resolution of the laptop to random times and intervals seems to support a maximum of 1280 x 700, which translates into a 2 inch black bar on the right side and the button start Windows 7 off the screen.

    Currently its stuck in the resolution of the screen and no matter what I may not make it back to normal 1366 x 768.

    External monitors very well with the laptop work.

    Its 2.20 BIOS execution that seems to me later.

    It seems that the intel driver must get some information that is incorrect.
    Research on different forums and using moninfo, I see that the internal display does not support EDID and settings appear to be set by the registry somehow.

    I also tried to make an EDID override by creating an inf file that is customized with Moninfo, but appears not to the question of the effect.

    I also tried to restore from the recovery many times discs without success.
    During the installation of windows occurs, the screen is fine.
    When Toshiba additional programs are added to the screen returns to the 1280 x 700.
    I suspect that what happens when the graphics driver intel is installed.

    If I boot the laptop in safe mode resolution is 1366 x 768, which seems to suggest that it is the driver who has a problem.

    Anyone else had this issue and understand how to fix it? I see also that intel do not support EDID override.

    Any idea is appreciated. Thank you.

    > If I boot the laptop in safe mode resolution is 1366 x 768, which seems to suggest that it is the driver who has a problem.

    I think you are on the right track, and I think that his untimely pilot.
    That's why I recommend you to uninstall the Intel graphics driver in Device Manager.

    PORTEGE R700-S1321 was equipped with the Intel® Core i5 - 520 M processor and this processor supports the Intel® HD graphics card

    The latest Intel HD driver can be downloaded directly from the page of Intel:
    [Driver for Intel Core with Intel HD Graphics processors | https://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Graphics& ProductLine = graphic + portable + pilots & ProductProduct = Intel % C2% AE + Core E2% 84% A2 + processors + with + Intel % 2 C % AE + HD + Graphics & ProdId = 3231 & LineId 1101 = & FamilyId = 39]

    I need to download the zip package.
    Then you can install the driver through Device Manager by using the Advanced installation procedure. This allows you to link directly to this zip package. Windows system would automatically take the driver. After restarting again you that would have settled the last drivers and you should change your resolution.

  • Portege R700 - quick as lightning!

    Despite some reports of 'flaky' and similar operation, I decided to tear off my HARD drive and slap a SSD and W7 Pro 64 bit on my portege R700-184

    flippin heck its the thing to the top fast!

    I used a base of sandforce OCZ Vertex 2 120 GB drive and the Retail Media to install the 64-bit windows. It's with any other firmware or software update for the SSD or Laptop, so right on the box

    Before starting from cold to 95 seconds, down to 23 seconds on the SSD used! and he wakes up from his sleep in 4 seconds! VERY impressed!

    Similarly the 64-bit operating system has improved my WEI scores the CPU is 6.5 to 6.9, the RAM of 5.4 to 5.9 and obviously the SSD took a hard drive of 5.9 to a burning 7.4 :-)

    excellent upgrade in the embryonic stages, I will present long-term stable after that I have all my drivers and running upward and restore my files!

  • Portege R700 Wont close or install W7 SP1

    Hello

    I have a Portege R700 for a few months and then only a brilliant notebookI'm having some trouble that I can't find the answer to. I thought I would post the two they could possibly be interrelated.

    First of all, when I am running on battery only my computer usually off. It gets to the Windows stops screen and just hangs. After all of 10 minutes, I have generally give up and manually turn off the machine by holding the power button. This is my desktop computer, it is very rarely used on battery so I have not really worried about it but I want to fix. Also when I use my machine on port replicator, at the office, when I shut down my computer what it comes up with the screen that a program is not responding and force close. I find it strange because there is no program running in time (of course there is probably a background running program).

    The second problem I encounter is that I am trying to install Windows 7 SP1 via the full download of the Microsoft Web site, but when it comes to install the update I get the following error:

    ERROR_SXS_ASSEMBLY_MISSING (0 x 80073701)

    I did a search on the web for answers, but all of the patches described did not work. My only other option might be a complete reinstallation of Windows that I hated doing.

    If anyone has solutions that would be great.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Why you are not allowing Windows Update to install updates to the machine? This method usually solves 90% update install problems as the update manager download only the sections of service pack required for your installation/version/version of windows 7?

    How does closing? by pressing the power button or by using the windows menu Start button stop?

    When on the port replicator the error message said exactly? What is the name of the program?

  • Portege R700 - Touch Pad, ecoUtility and presentation of the key does not

    Hello

    I got a Portege R700 with Windows 7 64 bit.
    This machine starts very slowly after the log in user mode only.
    The system is waiting for 1 to 2 Minutes before you can work. In administrator mode erverything is fine and fast.

    Thus our directors thought it might be the Toshiba Software and a lot has been disabled or uninstalled.
    Because this did not help and because I thought that it migt be cause of Kaspersky, I started to reinstalled and update the software from Toshiba. Most of it works now. Shortcut keys does not work, then I start TfcRst.exe via autostart now, even he would somehow it would be better in 'systemecommencent '.

    But still some keys do not work. The Tablet touch power switch, just above the touch pad does not work.
    The Fn F9 works. And the two keys to the right upper corner (ecoUtility/off button and the presentation-Key) do not work. In all three major, I get a pop up saying "this function not taken in charge.

    Anyone has any idea of this?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Why you n t try to restore the operating system back to the same state until the administrator has removed or uninstalled the Toshiba Software?

    Generally speaking the VAP (value added package) controls the multimedia keys.
    Also the FN keys require the VAP and Flash memory card Support utility.

  • Portege R700 - high pitched noise

    I have a high pitched noise of my Portege R700 - 11 p. The noise is in the upper range of the sound signal (perhaps around 15'000 Hz) and is regularly increasing and decreasing at a rate of about 0.5 Hz. He is always there that if the laptop is plugged into the power source and sleep, this is sometimes if the laptop is connected and running and he faints immediately if I plug off the coast. The noise seems to come from the upper left corner of the laptop. It is not very strong, but clearly audible and quite annoying after awhile. Someone knows why this noise and any opportunity to get rid of it?
    Thanks, Martin

    There are already two threads on this high pitched noise in the forum. Please check these threads, it should be useful and interesting:

  • Portege R700 - 11G - high and annoying fan noise

    Dear friends:

    I have a Portege R700 - 11G, I bought only two weeks ago.

    The computer works fine, except for the high and annoying fan noise.

    Even do nothing, only to start and sometimes in the bios Setup, the fan is always turn with a temperature of 40 ° or 50.

    I've updated the BIOS and I don't know what to do.

    Can someone help me please?
    Thank you very much.

    Hi mate

    Please check the settings in the Windows 7 power management!

    There you can optimize the CPU and cooling performance module this should help reduce heat dissipation and fan speed.

    In addition I recommend upgrading the Toshiba Fingerprint Software immediately to the version V1.0.2.32 or higher. In addition, turn off the power save option of fingerprint device in Device Manager.

    Device Manager->-> authentic Tec Inc AES1610-> the power management of biometric devices

    Here, you will have to remove the mark next to the option called allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.
    Disable the power saving mode will reduce the life of the battery, so you can check whether or not it helps reduce noise.

  • Portege R700, Windows 7, mounted sudden fan/cpu, freeze and force stop

    Hello

    I have a persistent problem that starts to become annoying... Portege 700 running Windows 7. Normal use (office, WMP, IE anything heavy)

    No apparent reason (no new requests started for example), there is a sudden increase in the speed of the fan which should be max (looks it takes off) and I suspect use of the processor at the same time. And it's that it's not simply to stop (I left for awhile on occasion) and does not match an input (keyboard or mouse). The only 'solution' is to use the power button to force a shutdown. (And then I lose all cookies etc. when starting again).

    I did a lot of Googling on that. Thought it was WMP network sharing Service and has taken measures to see, but have recently disabled that service and still the problem occurs... (I checked that it is always disabled when just rebooted).

    I keep as 'clean' as I can (have AV installed, use ccleaner regularly etc etc) so would be surprised if a virus/worm, but am running a scan again just in case...

    This happens quite often be a pain - and I have no idea what is the cause, if any ideas gratefully received.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

  • Portege R700: Cannot use the two SVGA HDMI on the Port PA3838E-1PRP Port Replicator

    Dear all,

    I have a Portege R700 series (PT311E) and a high speed P/N PA3838E-1PRP port replicator.

    Today, I tried to connect two external monitors on the VGA port and the second HDMI port replicator port.
    Unfortunately, I was not able to configure the laptop / duplicator to * work with external monitors stand *.

    Do not work in this way portable stand and port replicator becomes useless.
    Although it is a default installation on other products manufactured without drivers and special parameters will be needed, I hope that in our case a key combination or a driver may resolve this problem.

    To be even more precise, I don't want to also use the laptop screen. I want to just connect laptop closed and turned off in the duplicator, to turn on the laptop the power button of the port replicator and to have the image on two external monitors.

    Thank you for your quick responses,

    Best regards

    Cristian

    Hello

    What R700-xxx you have exactly?

    How to connect two monitors? Are the two monitors connected only to the Port Replicator or is one of the monitor connected to the laptop and the other monitor is connected to the duplicator?

    Could you please post this?

    I'm not quite sure of HDMI and Port Replicator (PA3838E-1PRP) but many laptops equipped with support DVI dual video output (VGA and DVI) port using Advanced Port Replicator III (PA3314E-1PRP) or Advanced Port Replicator III more (PA3474E-1PRP).
    But this is only possible if the laptop itself supports the simultaneous use of RGB & DVI too.

  • Portege R700 internal to screen very dark but can use the external monitor

    Hi guys,.

    just had a question about my Toshiba Portege R700 as the screen went white and I couldn't see the screen or sometimes I could and it was very dark!

    However, the laptop could start up as normal and I could use it normally through an external display!

    Subsequently, I replaced the screen and it started working again (happy days)!
    However, a few weeks down the line the same problem again apparently did screen dies.

    I take off again and disconnect and reconnect the screen just to see if that would solve the problem and he did, back and working again. I even tried the old screen I swapped and that works too!
    So I paid £140 + for a new screen that I didn't need, my question is what is the problem?

    Could not find anything else on this topic so would appreciate any help thanks

    There are too many different questions and if you try to fix one, it will take too long and there is no guarantee that you will have success with it.

    Best thing you can do is to restore laptop to factory settings and start using it for laptop with out of the box. After doing this in a first time check it and make sure that everything works correctly.

    Right?

    Please check the display option in the menu bar. Zoom must be set to 100% and Textsize must be set to medium.
    In addition, you can check the settings in the control panel-> display-> appearance tab
    There is option called the size of the font. In my case it s set to normal.
