Satellite A-C55-1N1 - upgrade of the network cards

I have a Toshiba Satellite C55-A-1N1 running Windows 8.1 and want to update the NETWORK Ethernet card both cards Wi - Fi, with the upgrade of the most important Ethernet card.

Current card Ethernet installed (by Device Manager) is Qualcomm Atheros AR8172/8176/8178 PCE - E Controller Fast Ethernet (NDIS 6 h 30). I would like to move to GigaBit Ethernet.

I don't want to disassemble the laptop to determine the size of the current map before obtaining beforehand a replacement (to avoid repeated disassembly). Can someone please help with the details of the existing card (for example what size/connections) and what other cards would be compatible to use to reach GigaBit speeds, if indeed this is possible?

Map current WiFi installed (by Device Manager) is Qualcomm's Atheros AR956x wireless network adapter. I would like to be able to also connect at 5 GHz...

As with the Ethernet card, I would get a compatible card before dismantling and would ask the same questions. I also understand that I would need 2 or 3 internal antennas to reach faster speeds of the WiFi. Can someone advise please on existing maps, maps of appropriate replacement and on the issue of the antennas.

Thanks in advance for any help and advice.

Due to specific design material update on laptops is very limited and supported. Support is upgrade RAM or HARD disk. It's nothing more than that.
You can find a list of compatible RAM memory modules to upgrade. HDD or SSD upgrade is not problematic and, on most portable models, it can be done by the owner of the laptop.

All the other hardware upgrades are not supported. I do not understand that you want to use the material with the best specification but that should help you with this?
> Can someone please help with the details of the existing card (for example what size/connections) and what other cards would be compatible to use to reach GigaBit speeds, if this is indeed possible?
These info, you can get the laptop to the manufacturer or an authorized only, partner, but they will tell you the same thing I have already written.

My advice to you: do not disassemble the laptop on your own. In a first time the valid warranty and secondly, you can damage something.

At the end one, may be stupid, the question: what is the problem actually? Is your machine so slow or what? I mean in particular the LAN connection. It must be OK.

  • Satellite Pro P300 - 13 M - how to replace the network card?

    Hello I have the Satellite Pro P300 - 13M.

    My sister fell on my UTP cable and so he was taken out by force and because of that "holding-pings" on the front of the port are bent or broken, so whenever I put in a cable with traction slightess or accidental poke I'm new offline...

    I'm out of my warranty period, is it possible to fix this? Can I replace it myself?
    USB network adapters are a viable solution to replace if I can't replace it?

    Help > _

    To resolve this issue, you must replace the motherboard. The network card or a network location is soldered on the motherboard and cannot be traded.

    In addition, it would be not covered by warranty. This isn't a matter of Toshiba, this is caused by the customer.

    However, if you want to repair you must contact an ASP or search you on eBay for a card mother of second hand.

  • Satellite A500-15N: could not find the network adapter XP driver

    Hello world

    I just blown away vista on my new A500-15N and installed XP + SP2.
    The installation went well but I have some problems with some devices does not.

    They are: 3 x of the device Base, 1 x Ethernet, 1 x network controller controller system, 2 x PCI device, 1 x controller Bus SM, 1 unknown device x and 1 x video controller (VGA Compatible).

    I thought that I would be able to load network card drivers in order to allow access to the internet and then be able to download everything, either automatically, or manually. But I can't have any network card to load drivers!

    After loading some on the Toshiba web site, it makes no difference.
    I deleted and then to detect automatically the network card in Device Manager, but I can't find any drivers installed to run.

    Anyone know what I can do to fix this, or any other issue?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Do you need the card network LAN driver Wlan or both pilots?
    As far as I know the piece of LAN card is Realtek (1 Gbps) and the Intel 5100AGN WLAN.

    The WLan driver can be found here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/?page=downloads
    Intel PRO/Wireless 3945, 4965, 5100, 5300

    The driver LAN on the Realtek page:
    http://www.Realtek.com.tw/

    You can consult the page of the European driver Toshiba. Other series of laptops use the same Realtek LAN card and the driver should work too.

  • Satellite A110-294 does not recognize the wireless card

    Hello

    the question is:
    Why my Satellite A110-294 does not recognize the wireless card?

    I re - install Xp PRO with all the drivers.

    I have try all the drivers Wireless: Wlan intel + proset intel atheros wlan + wlesscmgr

    I don't understand, can you help me?

    Thank you
    André

    Hello

    To my knowledge, the A110-294 uses the Atheros WLan card and therefore the Atheros Wlan dirver should be the right one.

    You can find the latest driver for Atheros WLan here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/

    Just a question;
    You see the local network card in Device Manager? I mean, you should see an Ethernet controller or an unknown device in the network adapters
    The driver is missing, then the device must be marked with a yellow exclamation point

  • Unable to connect to the internet with the NETWORK card and Windows Millennium Edition.

    Hello

    I turned on my old computer yesterday, who has installed Windows Millennium Edition. At the back of the computer is an Ethernet port which is marked as LIEN ACT. The NIC with this port is Realtek 8139 PCI Fast Internet Adapter. I spend two hours on the Internet configuration and I did and finally got connected, but then, a few hours after, something went wrong and the Internet and the NETWORK card has stopped working! And the card has disappeared from the Device Manager, but he's still showing in network in Control Panel. I opened the computer and I reconnected it to the slot, but it did not help. At the back of the computer next to this port are two LEDs - green indicates the power that lights up when I plug the Internet cable and the other orange indicates actual connection. But now these two LEDs are not indicating something even when I plugged in the cable to the Internet, which comes from my router. In the computer a Dial Up connection PCI is installed too, but I disabled it. I used Dial-Up in 2002. So, I need help.
    But I know that I can connect with this Ethernet card to the Internet because it worked for 3 hours, I've loaded the pages and downloaded programs.
    Please don't point, should I upgrade Windows!
    Thank you.

  • Close the network card?

    I have a machine that I have leveled off for XP Pro SP3 because I have a few HW record that ONLY works on XP.

    I want comtrol machine including = WOL WakeOnLAN remotely.

    I had an old IBM Thinkcenter used for recording HW, but I want a bit more powerful machine of Noah - let's call it MC.

    The MC has been running Windows 7 before but now ranked out of XP Pro SP3 and it works fine - with the exception of WOL installation.

    I simply does not work and I see that the network adapter is SHUT OFF when the machine is turned off - the old IBM ThinkCenter I can always see the LED light when it is turned off.

    I beleave there are new drivers for the network card, but I checked the settings on the parameters WOL and I did also the settings in the BIOS.

    Still no light in the LED on the back of the RJ45 of computers. Also I see no light on the swichport where the MC cable is inserted into the switch.

    It is on the Ethernet card on board and it is a NVIDIA nForce 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet with "drivers".

    What can be wrong here and how I can fix the problem?

    You may have read my first post that I deleted later because I had completely misread your post before responding.  As I said then, Wake on Lan is controlled by the motherboard and firmware of the NETWORK adapter, it is not dependent on the operating system, a compatible computer without any OS installed WOL can be started by WOL providing that it is properly enabled in the BIOS and NETWORK card firmware.   Windows (or other operating system) really has nothing as such to do with function Wake on Lan, the extent to which any OS with WOL is limited because it can enable the feature in the firmware of the NETWORK adapter through the drivers or other utilities provided by the manufacturer of the device.  If it worked before then you know that the computer is able to do, was not because Windows 7 has been installed, it worked because it has been correctly configured in the firmware of the NETWORK adapter and the BIOS.  When you installed Windows XP it is most likely did not have the drivers for the NETWORK card and it may have reset the NIC to default settings that cannot be reset correctly with the drivers you have installed later.  Have you installed the card mother/chipset drivers?  They may be needed for other drivers work correctly.

    Wake on Lan has everything to do with the BIOS, it is implemented by the motherboard.  If your computer is capable of WOL (which we know that it is) there is an option for it in the BIOS, it might be under a different name, like "Power Up on PCI device" or something else.  If you don't see a power management Option in the BIOS, it might be in the advanced settings, it's there somewhere.  If Windows can have changed WOL BIOS settings during installation is something that I don't know, but I can tell you that Windows can change some settings in the BIOS, you can adjust the timers BIOS to start the computer at scheduled time so who knows what he might be able to change.

  • Windows could not automatically bind the Protocol IP on the network card stack.

    Hello

    I installed an Edimax EW-7718Un network adapter that does not connect to the internet. I installed the same device on my Windows Vista laptop and it works fine, this isn't a problem with the product or my BT Home Hub. I checked the Edimax website and this product is compatible with Windows 7, and I have the latest drivers for it. I did the following to try to resolve the problem:
    -I've already been on the adapter properties, and clicked on "update drivers", the system says that the network card is working properly and that the drivers are up to date. I also installed the latest drivers on the Edimax website but the issue is not resolved.

    When I solve the problem, he told me that "Windows could not automatically bind the IP protocol for the network card stack."

    Please note that the settings are correct as the TCP/IP and DNS are set on "automatically get an IPv6/4 address server / DNS automatically".

    Also of note is that in "Network connections" in the Control Panel, the device is listed as "Disabled", I click to activate it but it does nothing, the network connection is still disabled. When I click on "analyze what" the same message "Windows could not automatically bind the IP protocol stack to the adapter network." appears.

    I also have compeltely re-installed Windows 7 and use the system restore, neither worked.

    I hope you can solve this problem.
    Thank you

    Hi Mickey888,

    According to the information provided by the Edimax website this particular model supports up to Windows Vista only.

    http://www.Edimax.us/HTML/English/products/EW-7718Unspec.htm

    You can try to install the same in compatibility mode and see if that solves the problem. To run the troubleshoot compatibility utility follow the link below.

    As the title suggests, I am running Windows 7 family, 64 bit. This is a new installation, a few days ago and I have not installed anything on, or changed the settings.

I used initially the disk included in the box, however, this has generated the same question that I'll explain, so I uninstalled this software and has continued to use the Windows program to connect to the wireless network.

    I can connect to the network, of course; However, I get the message "Windows could not automatically bind the Protocol IP on the network card stack" when connecting each time.

    After searching for an answer, I tried to turn on the WLAN auto configuration service, however, it is enabled by default. If this isn't any help.

    Tried the netsh winsock / netsh int ip / netsh int ipv4 / netsh int ipv6 reset and restarted after each, no change, if this isn't any help.

    Made sure the problem wasn't with the wireless router, and it isn't because I can connect with my laptop.
