Re: Satellite L450D-128 - cannot activate wireless LAN

Hello

This laptop specific doesn't have a wireless to turn on/off switch. I can't seem to be able to locate the "wireless" on the Control Panel, in order to enable it.

Help, please!

Hi lil_red_rose,

The laptop doesn't have a WIFI hardware switch, but you can use the combination of keys FN + F8 to disable/enable the feature WLAN.

Also if the wireless network adapter is not recognized, press the key combination mentioned above to activate the wireless network card.

Check this box!

  • Re: Satellite L650 - impossible to activate wireless LAN

    I just bought a new Toshiba Satellite L650. I installed all the readers (video, sound, lan, WLAN...) but I can't turn on the wireless network. Practically, Fn + F8 does nothing.

    What can I do to activate it? Is there another way?

    Hi longip,.

    Wireless network adapter is listed correctly in the Device Manager? It may not be installed or with yellow exclamation marks so the driver must be reinstalled.

    For the FN key combinations, Toshiba Value added Package must be installed and Flash cards Support utility.
    You have installed these tools?

  • Satellite L450D-107, looking for wireless LAN driver

    Hello

    I have my Satellite connection problems to my network wireless at home. I want to solve by installing the real driver, but I can't find it on the download page. I have a Microsoft driver installed (Version 6.1020.226.2009). Any suggestions?

    Kind regards

    In Device Manager you can find this module WLan was built in the notebook...

    But what kind of question WLan you have exactly?

    Without doubt, the question is not related to the driver...

  • Satellite Pro L10 - cannot activate wireless

    Just installed 2 new maps memory of 512 MB to L10 up to 1 GB maximum memory. A basic 256 MB before and became really slow.
    However, now cannot access the internet without wire - worked very well before, although slowly.

    I get the message "wireless communication switch is turned off", despite press the silver on the front and try Fn + F8. Seems turns a second then turns off again. I've never had to do before.
    Everything else seems fine. Running XP OS.

    Anyone has any ideas please?

    Hello

    To be honest, I doubt that this has something to do with the RAM upgrade. This doesn t usually affect the function of your laptop wireless.

    Anyway, first of all, I would try reinstalling the WLAN driver. You can get the latest version on the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    Also, be sure that the BIOS version is the most recent.

  • Satellite P755-S5393 - cannot activate wireless using Fn + F8 keys

    Initially I was facing problem with auto power-off, I diagnose and disconnection of the electric connection of the media Panel since then my wifi is not activate even using the Fn + F8 key combination.

    Solutions and suggestions are welcome!

    Aamir Malik

    Hi Aamir Malik

    Satellite P755-S5393 has been preloaded with Win 7.

    If you still use this system, you should first check if the other next to the combination FN + F8 function keys work correctly.
    If the keys n t work, you must install additional Toshiba as software
    TOSHIBA Value Added Package and Toshiba Flash cards support utility

    Drivers & updates for this model is located on the Toshiba USA support page:
    http://support.Toshiba.com/support/modelHome?FREETEXT=3167433

    Where only the combination FN + F8 does not work, I recommend reinstalling the WLan driver.

  • Satellite L450D-128 - Wireless internet does not connect

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L450D-128 and it won't let me connect to a wireless network and I can't find the switch wireless and ive tried FN + F8, but it does not work. Could you please help.

    Thank you Ryan

    Hello Ryan

    I don't know what version of Win7 do you use and what can be the problem of using WLAN but if you use original recovery image, everything should work properly.

    At first check please if the wireless network card is installed correctly. You can check in the Device Manager.
    If the wireless network adapter is installed correctly, it must be enabled. Usually, this can be done by using the FN + F8 key combination.
    >.. .and ive tried FN + F8, but it does not work
    What does not work exactly? You have problem with the FN keys in general or just using FN + F8?

    When you press the FN key you find cards flash at the top of the screen?

  • Satellite L450D-128: how to fix intermittent errors blue screen Crash?

    My computer suffered several errors blue screen for a month, and I need help to fix it. I've already posted this question on the forums of Windows 7, but received no reply and therefore no help.

    I use a Satellite L450D-128. I installed Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.
    According to the .dmp files, most of the accidents were caused by the ntoskrnl.exe file that is part of the windows OS.

    Can someone tell me the best way to look at/fix this file?

    Hello

    The ntoskrnl.exe seems to be part of the kernel to boot Microsoft.
    In my view this file or this process should not create a BSOD
    Have you checked if the new installation of the OS could solve this problem?

    Given that the BSOD may be linked to serious problems or hardware problem
    Therefore, you should try new fresh OS installation to check if the system is not affected
    Otherwise I recommend that you check the RAM modules (perhaps running a memtest86 +)

    I Don t know exactly if this laptop has bluetooth.
    In any case, you can buy a "USB Bluetooth adapter" (PA3710E-1BTM). It costs about 10-.
    It will be recognized to the BONE and you don t need any other drivers.

    It's not difficult, and the whole process won't take long.

    Turn the unit on and press F8
    Then choose fix my computer-> Toshiba HDD recovery

    This will start the installation of the new.

    I mean, in this case, that a hardware problem would be possible

  • Satellite L450D-13 x - lost wireless connection and will not sign up to all the

    I have a Satellite L450D - 13 X, I was able to use the wireless until today where it has stopped working. No matter what I do, it says that the wireless device is disabled.
    I tried to update and diagnoses, but they all come back fine.

    Can anyone help?

    Try to restore OS to an earlier time using System Restore tool. Maybe some update Microsoft screwed up the WLAN functionality. Very often the driver WLAN is displayed as an option to update.

    Try this as the first step.
    Also try restarting your router.

  • Satellite L450D - 13P cannot start with the new HARD drive

    The problem is that my hard drive is scrap, so I purchest a new 500 gb HDD, instaled it put in the disk I got with him and nothing?
    Hope any 1 here can help me

    Thanks a lot steve!

    In general you can swap the HARD drive or update it with more a (ability), but the installation of recovery should work. It is important to use compatible HARD drive for certain system.
    I did several times in the past. No problem at all.

    After HDD change the value of the BIOS default settings and start recovery installation using created the recovery disc.

    Start your laptop and when you see Toshiba welcome screen pres F12 repeatedly to enter the boot menu.
    When the menu is displayed on the screen, put the recovery DVD in the optical disc drive.
    In the menu choose you CD/DVD and press ENTER.
    Installation of recovery should start.

    Please do so and send feedback.

  • Satellite Pro M40X-132: scalable wireless Lan?

    Hello

    I have a PC laptop Toshiba M40X-132. It doesn't have a wireless installed inside the adapter. It cable antenna for this card.

    On the site where the specifications are listed, I see that the computer is "scalable wireless lan. If you want to check, here is the link: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/selected_product_option.jsp?service=EU&PRODUCT_ID= 104069 & DISC_MODEL = 0

    I opened my computer and noticed that there are no slot mini pci installed. However, I found the place on the motherboard that is generally used to install such a slot with a certain set of 15-20 minutes with a weld. :) I know I'm losing my warranty by doing this, but I think it would be better to take the risk that, in order to exploit external PCMCIA or USB devices all the time.

    So, I have a slot mini pci I bought in a store for electronic components. The place for the installation of such a location are tinned on the motherboard. I think cleaning of Tin from there and then set the slot I.

    The big question is the following: suppose that I managed to solder correctly such a slot on the motherboard. It will work or not? I mean, the slot is just the thing that does not exist, or there is some other components and electronic parts which are now absent and doing this slot work?

    Thank you for your advice. I'm really confused.

    Good day! :)

    Hello Stefan

    I really put t understand you not at all. First I put t really believe someone make these experiences and you will be very happy if someone has this kind of experience.

    And if it works, how you want to install the WiFi antenna? You want to dismantle the entire screen to do this and to do it properly? Believe me that it is a bad idea.

    The USB wireless costs about 25 euros and in 10 minutes, you can configure and use the WLAN.

    Please think about this one more time.

    Good luck!

    Have you tried a BIOS update?
    This you will find also on the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com

    You have disabled all the security features for testing?
    I mean hidden SSID, MAC address filtering and so far. Maybe that's the problem.

    Check also if the router has the new firmware. You can find it on the site of the factory

  • Satellite Pro L450D-12 x - cannot activate wireless

    I recently installed Windows 7 Home Premium 32 - bit clean and am currently unable to connect to any wireless network. I went to control panel > network & Internet > manage wireless networks and it says "Wireless is not currently enabled.

    There is no switch to turn it on on this model. I also tried to go to the mobility Center Windows, but the option "turn wireless on" does not appear. An option to activate the wireless is not anywhere in summer as seen in the Network & Sharing Center or Device Manager. I also tried holding down the FN key and pressing F8, but it is not seen not work that the WiFi light is still orange.

    Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance.

    Maybe stupid question now but why you installed Home Premium when your laptop was offered with the original Toshiba Win7 Professional recovery image?
    As you know recovery image contains all the necessary drivers, tools and utilities and all in working order.

    In your case, I can only imagine cards flash don't work correctly, but why this happens, I can't say with certainty.
    Is the card properly installed wireless (Device Manager)?
    Have you installed all the stuff from Win7 from Toshiba download including value added package (VAP) page?
