  just has got rid of the virus and responsible for all the disks but given the wifi does not work

  Hello

  Check with the system manufacturer or the actual WiFi device manufacturer and ask in their forums (if any)
  for problems known.

  Actually, try updating your driver:

  Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
  version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
  Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

  Download - SAVE - go where you put it - right click – RUN AS ADMIN.

  You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

  After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version. (The
  manufacturer of system become your backup policies).

  Repeat for network (NIC) card and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as Vista like
  updated drivers.

  I would also turn off auto update for the drivers. If the updates Windows suggests a just HIDE as they
  are almost always old, and you can search drivers manually as needed.

• Satellite L305D-S5895 - keys to functions and the wifi does not work with Win XP

  Hello

  first sorry for my English

  I bought a Toshiba Satellite l305d s5895, with Windows XP, I need a software, but the function keys does not work.
  So I need a driver, but I can't, and wireless internet does not work.

  > Where could it find special XP BIOS?
  In my opinion, there is problem because most threads here are on the European laptop models. then come to question United States. Toshiba Europe and Toshiba U.S. do not work together and each of them is responsible for own models and provide support for specific country notebooks models.

  For most models, so here in Europe Toshiba has offered two BIOS. We were already on the delivered Vista laptops. The Toshiba page download available BIOS for Windows XP Home edition. in most cases, it was version 5. XX and this BIOS was designed to support public services and specific tools of Toshiba. For example, all the FN key features was only available with this BIOS WXP.

  So if any of you have laptop model US they would see how the solution with Toshiba U.S. or US forum under http://community.compuserve.com/n/pfx/forum.aspx?webtag=ws-laptop&redirCnt=1

  Bye and good luck!

• Satellite M70-181: the wifi does not work

  Hello

  I'm in New Zealand at the moment and a fortnight ago, I changed my bios password but forgot it. To solve this problem I send the laptop to Toshiba in Christchurch and they reset for me. But since that day my wireless does not work. When I turn it on not even the light. Is not in one of the normal places (like in the network environment or how ever you call it).
  Would it be a problem with the hardware, and it is easy to fix by cause me I didn't have the waiting time until they do it again in Christchurch.

  Thanks for all the answers

  They could have damaged antenna card wifi inside your computer. If you have technical skills, you can fix it yourself, but if you don't just send the laptop back and let check them again.

• WIFI does not work on my Satellite L650D

  Hi all...

  On my laptop, the wireless light is orange and won t work...
  When I got the laptop connected to the Ethernet cable, it works fine but the minute that I remove it, it turns off.
  Anyone know my problem?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I guess that LAN connection works properly and you can access the internet using LAN.
  But the WiFi does not work even if the WLan light is on. Is this good?

  I m wondering if you have activated the WLan with the FN + F8 keys.
  Have you tried that?

  You have configured the WiFi network properly? I mean that you must make sure that you have chosen the good encryption (WEP, WPA, WPA2, etc.) and the right encryption password!

  You can also disable all the security settings on your router and was able to connect the notebook to open WLan but it must be done only for testing purposes.

• WiFi does not work on my Satellite C660-1 t 9

  Sorry, but we can't look for a solution on this path.
  Please be kind and offer some basic information which can be very useful for people who want to help.

  Use you own the OS version or the original version you got with your laptop?
  Is the network card wireless installed correctly (status in Device Manager)?
  Toshiba VAP is installed on your machine?
  You can use flash cards and FN + F8 option to activate the wireless card properly?

• HP 15 laptop: wifi does not work windows 8.1

  I have Windows installed pro 8.1. I was using wifi on this laptop, it worked fine. However, recently, I see that the Wifi does not work although he shows me the SSID of my network I used to use and also the SSID of the networks of neighbors. (It means that the wifi on laptop chip is capable of scanning the wifi signals and so it works). The same router from which all other Mobile tablets, my home laptop work are able to connect to the wifi network. Only on this laptop I am facing this problem. What may be a solution or what I should try. I tried the steps listed here http://www.fixedbyvonnie.com/2013/10/how-to-fix-limited-or-no-connectivity-wi-fi-issues-in-windows-8...

  Although I have not changed the default settings only steps above on blog, I tried to solve the problem. However, it did not work. Also keys function + F12 on laptop has no effect. The light on the F12 key is always on. However, it is possible to toggle the wifi in the bar of Windows 8.1 charms.

  What should I check?

  I bought an external USB wifi device that solved the problem.  The card wifi on laptop works well, but for some unknown reason, he is not able to connect to home wifi router. http://www.snapdeal.com/product/leoxsys-150-Mbps-Nano-WiFi/1179610?utm_source=earth_feed&utm_campaign=TopPerformersPLAScaling3000&utm_medium=CPC&utm_content=1179610&utm_term=, & campaignid = 350311165 & 28373951005 = adgroupid & adposition = 1o1 & network = g & device = c & targetid = pla-55251503741

• Re: Portege M800-10Z - WiFi does not work

  Hello.
  I have a problem. I recently bought Toshiba Portege M800-10Z and downgraded Windovs Vista to XP service pack 3. All right, but the WiFi does not work.

  I tried to upgrade the wireless Lan driver, but it still does not work...
  I have Intel Wireles WiFi Link 5100 and system is Windovs XP service pack 3
  Is there someone who could help me with this issue?

  I would be very grateful for advice.

  Thank you very much

  Hello!

  That you say with the WiFi does not work?
  Can you connect to the router?
  The WLAN card is recognized in Device Manager?

  To solve this problem make sure that you have the latest version of the BIOS. Check on the Toshiba site.

  Also disable features of security as a hidden SSID, MAC address filtering and so far away.
  Check if an update of the firmware on your router available.

  Good bye

• Satellite L670 - after Win 8 upgrade WIFI does not work properly

  Afteer upgrade to Win 8, the WiFi of my Satellite L670-128 has stopped working properly.

  The connection only works some time, usually only a few seconds before the connection is lost.
  After a few seconds or minutes the connection is restored, just soon to be lost again.

  Cannot download large files or even to see larger photos on normal web pages. Is there any Win8 driver for Broadcom coming 802.11n network card, or should I throw one 2.5 year old computer in the trash?

  Buy a usb-wlan card is not an option, as wireless mice is already "permanently" reserving one of the three usb ports and wlan card it would be just to the left...

  To my knowledge this L670 series isn t Win 8 taken in charge and this means that there is no special Win 8 drivers for this device, so I put t think you will find an another Win 8 driver for this WLan card.

  But do you really want to throw this laptop in the trash just because the wifi does not work properly running Win 8?
  The device was working properly under Win 7?

  I would recommend running a few Wlan test.
  For example; Disable wireless encryption on your router and Wifi connectivity with the open network do that just for testing purposes, perhaps you will need to change the type of encryption to test.

• Key on the keyboard does not work in firefox box when you type in the web site, but it works everywhere else?

  Key on the keyboard does not work in firefox box when you type in the web site, but it works everywhere else?

  Try Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there.
  
  A way of solving problems, which disables most of the modules.
  
  (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

  • You can open the mode without failure of Firefox 4.0 + by pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
  • Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.

  Do not choose anything at the moment, just use 'continue in safe mode.

  To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox (without the Shift key) to open it again.

  If it's good in Firefox Safe mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one.

• WiFi does not work on the battery!

  Hello

  I am running Windows 8.0 (64 bit) and my wifi does not work properly in battery mode. AC adapter, it works 100% perfect but in battery operation, it always goes to limited connectivity. He repaired, but 25seconds later, he gets the same problem. Limited each time connectivity. It's a never ending cycle warranty has expired and I am not happy with it.

  Even if repaired, impossible to open any website. Full 5 bars wifi but still the same result. Tried manually (TCP/IP IPv4 settings) but did not work at all.

  My wifi driver is Intel Centrino Wireless N 2230 (15.12.0.6 updated version of the intel.com site).

  C2Y46AV product number (HP ENVY DV6 NOTEBOOK PC)

  Serial number [thank you for visiting the Forums from HP Support. I'm sorry to inform you that your message needs some changes to remove personal information].

  Tried everything that I could possibly think off such as disabling firewall windows Norton Firewall & Running but still the same problem.

  Can you please tell me what to do?

  HP update.

  Can you please provide a solution for this.

  Thank you

  Hello Ophelia-involves.

  Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

  I understand that the computer has problems connecting to the networks without wire on the battery life. I'll do my best to help you! After some research, I actually found a Microsoft document that contains the steps I would have provided for your problem: you may experience problems with connectivity or performance issues when you connect a portable computer that runs Windows to a wireless access point

  Please try these steps and let me know what happens. Thank you!

• WiFI does not work on Satellite M105-S1021

  My TECRA stopped with the BSoD (on another thread) and I had to leave my old Satellite M105 - S1021 and try and get it going again.

  WiFi does not work on this laptop, even with the switch at the front, running and when I put in a USB WiFI module with an external antenna I get a very bad signal from my router wireless in the next room< 20="" feet="">

  Hello

  I found the specification for this old Satellite M105 series data sheet:
  [Satellite M105-S1021 | http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/modelContent.jsp?ct=DL&os=&category=&moid=1372978& rpn = PSMA2U & modelFilter = M105-S1021 & SelCategorie = 2756709 & selFamily = 1073768663]

  Looks like the laptop was equipped with a map of Atheros 802.11 wireless network b/g.
  If your internal wireless network card does not, even if you have enabled the external WLan switch, then I recommend check device manager first check that the area of Wlan Card network adapters usually map Atheros Wlan must be there if its not listed, install the Atheros Wlan driver

  In addition, next to the switch hardware Wlan, you need to activate the WLan using Fn + F8

  Regarding the USB dongle and a weak signal of Wlan:
  Well, maybe the USB dongle aerial signal is too low on the other hand you should test connectivity using 802.11 B or 802.11 G standard only
