Problem with wireless on windows 8

Hello

I have a sony vaio SVF14212SNB laptop running windows 8 X 64.

Few days back after waking up from his sleep. My laptop shows no wireless adapter, wireless, network connections, there is no option to turn on/off wifi PC > single and wireless Bluetooth appears more under wireless, but it's greyed out and only Ethernet works. The only driver under network adapters is realtek PCle GBE Family Controller.

I tried

1 network helps out

2 download the latest driver Intel wireless LAN, LAN wireless Broadcom driver and an update on the sony site and all these drivers is installed but does not appear on the Device Manager.

3. uninstalled the realtek PCle GBE Family Controller and always try installing the drivers above and it did not work.

4. I have updated my PC to settings by default, just as the wireless problem began, but that does not solve anything.

Thank you

  • Problem with wireless network, Windows 8/8.1, Toshiba Sattelite L50-A-1EH

    Hello MS.

    I have problems with my wireless network card. At this point, I think it's maybe a defective hardware. Here's the problem:

    I have an access point SSID which connects, but disconnect every 10-15 minutes. It is offline for a minute until it reconnects automatically or if it is disconnected and I have to reconnect manually it reconnects quickly.

    The laptop is a Toshiba Sattelite L50-A-1EH. Network card: Atheros AR956x.

    To resolve this problem, I tried the following:

    • Install several drivers, Atheros themselves as well as the drivers of Toshiba for this specific model cell phone section.
    • Install these drivers on Windows 8.1, downgraded to Windows 8 (maybe better driver support was my guess, still no luck)
    • Tried driver versions: 0.0.75/0.0.263/0.0.270/0.0.287 (latest)
    • Changed automatic IPv4 DHCP to static IP
    • Modified profile profile manually created for this SSID wireless

    In the event viewer Windows 8 under autoconfiguration service WLAN it says: autoconfiguration WLAN service cannot connect to a wireless network.

    Reason for the failure: the pilot disconnected all combining.

    The router is not the problem, I have several other devices connected to this point of access without any problems, or whatever.

    At this point, I think it is a hardware on the Atheros AR956x card problem because I can not imagine that Toshiba would have a product on the market that is pre-installed with Windows 8.1 which does not work drivers.

    Any thoughts? Very much appreciated.

    Hello badr V.

    Let me let you know that I finally managed to fix the problem.

    I tried a lot of things, but what ended up working was the following:

    Updated the BIOS with the latest version (1.6-> 1.7), decommissioning of 8.1 Windows of Windows 8 and installation of driver in charge of Windows 8. For me, it was 10.0.0.247 who continued to work throughout.

    Thanks for the guide if.

    Yours sincerely,

  • E4200 w 2 - re1000 and still have problems with wireless coverage

    I have a big enough House, 4500 square feet, and there a lot of bricks and stucko.  I wired ethernet ports in most of the rooms.

    For my Apple TV and tower PC, PS3, I used a wired connections.

    But we have a lot of devices without wireless, 4 laptops and 3 iphones, 3 ipads so good wireless coverage is a must.  I'm not looking for a budget solution, just the best solution that I can.  I also have a wireless baby monitor and an ATT Wireless TV receiver.  I have no end of problems with wireless on my devices.

    Without a lot of research I boght a couple re1000 thought that would be the solution to my problem, but they don't really work as well as I would like.  I wish I had done my research as I think that the right solution is to have the other AP in the connection from the House to a 'hand' AP via wired connection (connection wired bridge mode?).  I could adjust only force and channel to maximize coverage for the House.

    Here is what is a must:

    One SSID in the House

    Everything must be on the same network.  I have a wired camera Foscam and use the features of the homegroup in windows.

    Taking as a basis the e4200, what other should AP I buy to connect to the main via a wired connection?

    I don't know how to close your home is to other houses, so I don't know if you might encounter interference from 2.4 ghz to your neighbors or other sources.

    I see that WAP610 is not simultaneous... only selectable.  iPhones are only 2.4 ghz

    Whatever it is, you can keep the same SSID for your entire network, but you may need to use different wireless channels.  Everything meets your criteria above.

    The only unknown is your neighbors (and other sources) Wireless interference.

    You can download inSSIDer, which will give you a better idea of what you're against, but it is not infallible.

  • Install KB3024777 to fix a problem with KB3004394 on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 now not authentic

    Separated from this thread.

    Joachim

    When first pose the problem? Was it before or after the December updates?

    KB3004394 and KB3024777 appear in view update history? Or do they appear in installed updates?

    Gerry, thanks for your post. I have the same problem as Joachim started this thread. I am running Windows 7 sp1. I have a Dell computer and it's certainly a legitimate copy of Windows (confirmed computer 'properties' and it is enabled).

    By your post, I saw just to update and the KB3004394 (installed on 12/10/2014) and KB3024777 (installed on 12/12/2014) show as comfortable. I usually leave the Windows download updates automatically and I install them to stop. I watched the second update and according to Microsoft.com:

    Install KB3024777 to fix a problem with KB3004394 on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2

    The KB 3004394 update which was dated December 10, 2014 can cause additional problems on computers that run Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (SP1) and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1. This includes the inability to install future updates. This new update is available to remove KB 3004394 from your computer.

    My problem is, as of today 14/12/2014, I still get the pop up "this computer is running not windows genuine', even with KB3024777 installed.

    Any thoughts?

    Thank you

    When I start Windows XP, I get the message (translated from the German, hope that's OK): the exception 'unknown software error' (0xc0000409) occurred in the application at 0xc0044a920. The effect seems to be that my computer can't find any wireless connections, although there are four or five in the House.

    ed_ward,
    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.  I suggest that you make sure that you have the latest drivers for your wireless network card.  If you still have a problem after the update of drivers, then you can perform a clean boot, see if the problem persists or not.  Here is a link that explains the clean boot:
