Qosmio F30: Can not connect to internet with WiFi safely

I recently purchaced a Toshiba Qosmio F30 laptop and have spent the better part of two days trying to connect to wireless internet. After constantly call Wanadoo (my provider) and accusing them for all this, I thought that the laptop itself is at fault.

What happens is when I try to enter my network key (WEP), default is a different key that I can't see that it's all in the points! This continues to be and im am totally unable to enter my network key. Until it is I turn off security on my livebox thingy and connect unsecurely and as I live in close proximity apartments, other people can and probably will connect to my internet, and I am also told that makes me more at risk of viruses and other.

I apologize for my lack of technical jargon, and that I can not give a more descriptive... uh... description, but I'm just a beginner and not the most in computer science.

Any help would be appreciated more!... Why is nothing simpler!

Hi Luke,.
Have you tried WAP (shared key) instead of WEP.
In this way, you will need to make your own key instead of having the it generated by the router.
It is also safer.

To do this, you must enter the settings of your router (usually http://192.168.1.1 or http://192.168.0.1), enter the password provided by Wanadoo, then click Security. Change the setting WEP WAP (or shared key) and enter a 10digit password then you will need to enter it again when your computer tries to connect to the router again.

It is best to use a wired connection to change settings, then disconnect the cable and wireless.
If you notice that you are connected wireless to the router, and your internet connection is dead, temporarily disable the LAN (reactivate when you are satisfied with your connection works). This would happen if your computer includes your wireless network connection to other computers and the wired connection like you internet connection (even if there is no wire connected).

It is also important to change the administrator name and password to access your router (this would prevent your neighbors children playing to change your settings).
Let me know if you have more problems.

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not connect to internet by wifi when stop the data plan

    Hello
    I use a Blackberry M1, provider of Singapore internet service.

    To manage the use of the data, I turn off the data plan across mobile networks, but then I also cannot wireless internet. Why is this?

    Furthermore, how to manage the use of the data? I want to use the service plan when I need to minimize the use of the data, because I only have 1 GB for free a month.

    Thank you.

    If a good Wi - Fi signal and a network connection is available, your phone uses by default the Wi - Fi connection automatically IF this connection remains strong.  If your phone is having trouble maintaining in this regard, it will return to your network connection and exhaust your monthly data allowance.

    What about applications that can monitor your usage, someone else will have to intervene with a response.  Your carrier should have something available to monitor the use of your data.  Calling it couldn't hurt.

    I hope that clears things up for you.

  • After that the virus can not connect to internet

    My computer running Windows XP has been infected by a virus 'Alert system' fake who took over the office and hide all my files. I was able to restart in safe mode, run Malwarebytes and Microsoft Security Essentials to capture and remove some viruses. I was also able to display most of my files and desktop programs. (I also tried to do a system restore, but this doesn't seem to work). However, I can not connect to the INternet using Internet Explorer. I reset IE, but I can't always connect. It seems that IE starts to open the URL, but is then blocked somehow by the virus, which redirects to the default "diagnose the problem. The cables are connected and the Internet works. What other options are bypassing them that blocking and/or resettlement of IE.

    The error you received seems to indicate that there is a need to reset Winsock.  You could try running the FixIt program contained in this article, or the manual procedure:

  • I have been connected to the internet (wireless), then I unplugged the router and now I can not connect to internet. I tried diagnose the problem, but he said that he could not.

    I have a wireless internet connection for my laptop. I was connected to the internet, and it worked very well, so I had to unplug my router and all of a sudden I can't connect to the internet more. When I open the available networks, I hit connect on mine and he said: it does not work then I hit "diagnose the problem" and then, he says he can't. Also it is not even give me the option to set my password to connect to my network, but it does when I try to connect to any other.

    I suggest to unplug all your network cables and unplug the adapter from your modem AND router. ONLY plug your modem back power adapter in. Wait until you get a steady green light on your router, which indicates that it is ready. Then, connect the ethernet cable from your modem to your router INTERNET port. Connect the ethernet cable from your computer to any other ETHERNET port on your router. Finally turn the monitor for your router.

    If you do not do so in this order, the router can not connect properly to the internet because it doesn't have the correct IP address of your modem.

  • Satellite M305D-s4831 - I can not connect to internet

    Model - Satellite M305-S4831 (brought to the black Friday)

    Problem: I simply restart my laptop, and I can't go on the internet.
    My modem and router that a sharuter works very well, the connection between my PC to the router is good, but can not go on the internet.
    I went to the network and sharing Center, and the windows network diagnostics stipulate that:

    "" www.microsoft.com"is not configured to establish a connection on port"World Wide Web (HTTP) service"with this computer."

    I used the Toshiba recovery media disk (included when I brought my laptop) to restart my laptop.

    > My modem and router that a sharuter works very well, the connection between my PC to the router is good, but can not go on the internet.

    You have configured the router with the data from your ISP (internet service provider)?
    Without the right data you come out not and will not be able to reach all of the Web sites.

    But if the router is configured correctly, then this could be a problem with your firewall software or its configuration.

    I also read that different Anti Virus software may cause this problem, especially if you use different tools. A guy has had this problem, because it used the Norton Internet Security and Kaspesky. The two applications were not compatible and have blurred the internet configuration.

    By the way; have you tried to connect via LAN or WLan? Check both!
