Satellite A30-104: WLan not available - I turn on the wireless network card

I have a Toshiba Satellite A30-104 with an inprocomm ipn2220 built in wireless card. The problem I'm having is that when I get a network says its not available and asks me to turn it on.

The driver is installed for the card, the switch for the wireless is set on you and I pressed FN & F8 and yet led remains off and nothing happens.
I watched autour and seen that some people cover the terminals 11 and 13 and it works but not too sure.

I also should this problem with a new card or is there a way to fix this?

Any help much appreciated.

Hello

I guess that you upgraded the wireless lan card later, didn t you? I know that 11 + 13 pins hint and it worked, but after awhile the card did not and the connection quality was so poor that I bought a card atheros on ebay and this card works really well. So I suggest that you are looking for a card atheros on ebay and to install such card in your system since the cards are known to work properly in the toshiba machines.

My configuration: Tecra 9100 with P4M and Atheros 5005 G MiniPCI card

  • Can satellite M65-S9092 - I put the wireless network card?

    Hello

    Can I put my card Intel pro 2200BG on Satellite M65-S9092 wireless network so that it is no longer compatible with Windows 7? The Intel Pro 2200BG is no longer supported by Intel as it was abandoned and so they have not issued a new driver so that IPv6 works.

    So I would update my card if possible.

    Hello

    I think that it shouldn't be a problem to upgrade the WLan card.
    As far as I know its a card wireless network of miiPCI and you would need to also use a WLan card which would support the miniPCI interface.

    The wireless network card supports two pins for the WLan antenna cable.
    Usually, you must connect a white cable to the HAND and a black to the auxiliary voltage

  • Satellite Pro A40 fell on the wireless network card; Damaged PCMCIA slot

    This morning my Satellite Pro A40 (Celeron 2.6) fell 40 cm. He fell right on the wireless network card that has been inserted. This card is still alive and so is the rest of the laptop, but the PCMCIA location is little damaged. I can insert PC cards almost completely, just the last piece (when the pins are) wrong.

    I removed the cover near the CPU, and there, I could see the inside PCMCIA slot; I could see the main part and the last part where the pins are. That little part as is pushed upward, as you can see in the pictures.

    I think I'd be able to fix myself this PCMCIA slot, but I can't remove it. I removed all the screws on the rear plate, but he is still blocked.

    Pics:

    The PCMCIA location; on the left, you will see the part with the pins, which is pushed upward. It's also what I see when I look at the pins in the PCMCIA slot. as they are pushed down, but I don't think they are folded.

    Wireless network card; It is a little damaged but it still works.

    Does anyone have an idea how I can remove the back plate, or another way to remove the PCMCIA slot and fix it?

    Hi Steve

    Well, I can give t well you not answer how you can just remove the PCMCIA slot.
    There are a lot of screws and to my knowledge, it is necessary to remove all covers and screws that are placed at the bottom of the unit and inside under the keyboard.
    Please check this specific device. Perhaps you have overlooked a few screws.

    But if it is impossible to remove the PCMCIA slot of the unit, I recommend to ask the service partner for a detailed instruction.

    Good luck

    The WLan driver should be found here:

  • How to turn on a wireless network card on a Satellite 3000 514 without hardware switch?

    I have a 3000-514 Satellite. This laptop has an internal mini PCI slot. Recently, I bought an Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG wireless mini PCI card.

    The drivers have been installed correctly. The computer has detected the card and the condition of the equipment indicates that the device is functioning properly. However, a message appears indicating that the radio is turned off and must be turned on by the switch hardware. It seems not to be possible to activate the card without the switch...

    See the corresponding page in the Intel support:

  • Is satellite C660 - 11 H - possible to change the wireless network card?

    Hi guys,.

    I'm looking to change the card Wifi on my C660 11 H since a Realtek 8188CE for a Realtek RTL8187B, for reasons that cannot be discussed on this forum. I was just wondering if the new card will be compatible, if I understand his also a Bluetooth card? I know that in the past, this is a case of grooving of the card and connecting the antennas.

    Finally, can anyone provide me the model number of the integrated Realtek WAN adapter? In system information, he simply says Wan Adapter PCI-E FE?

    Thanks for your help / Ryan

    Hey,.

    To be honest, it would be interesting to know why you want to change the WLAN card. You are not satisfied, or what are the reasons for this?

    In the forum, there are some discussions on the WLAN on Satellite C660 questions but this could be solved with latest Realtek driver and turning off energy saving as you can in large number of discussions:

  • Satellite A100-785: router restarts automatically when the wireless network card is on

    I found that my router restarts automatically.
    This happens each and every time I turn on my laptop with the wireless adapter ON.

    I use the Satellite A100-785 PPPoE ISP with WPA/AES encryption enabled on the new MS Vista platform.
    All drivers updated to the latest versions, and the wireless signal is Excellent.

    Any suggestions that could be the reason or any recommendation to begin to investigate the matter?
    Everything will be highly appreciated. Thank you

    Once again; Your WLan router restarts (reboots) when you turn on the WLan on the A100 Satellite Map. Am I wrong?

    Hi all!

    I had this problem and goes out at least once a year...

    When I go to print on any computer through wireless connections, computers can't find the printer.  The printer is turned on and connected to the network, and network results show that everything is fine.  I did everything, including restarting the printer, by restarting the computer tries to print the form and reinstall the printer, and I get the message "Printer" not logged on computers.  Each moon blue, if I leave it long enough, he will find somehow the printer and printing, but as I said it's extremely rare.

    Logistics-wise, I am using Comcast for cable internet, and are all Apple products.  The modem is a Motorola and the router is a Linksys.  The router is less than 25 feet from the printer, and there is a clear shot-not walls or to block the signal

  • Qosmio F10: Driver Installation does not detect the wireless network card

    I wonder if anyone can help before I phone supported again. My motherboard is dead and ASP replaced and recovered my laptop qosmio F10. Since having back, my wireless card did not work.

    Windows detects a "network controller" whenever it starts and gives me the opportunity to install it. I tried to install it by navigating in the 'tools and utilities' records CD rom for folders and subfolders of "Wireless network driver" and it still does not detect the card.

    I also tried to install using the cd rom web gui and selected the 'Pilot wireless network' link and then tried to install it. It opens a dos command prompt and try to install but comes up with the error "failed installation.

    I ran the customer service and they told me to run the qosmio recovery/then recovery of product/recovery of qosmio and again...

    I still don't the card wireless not yet installed. This happened to someone else?

    I tried already shot the drivers from the web, but with no luck... If a representative of customer service with the help of good technical knowledge that would be great, or if someone has encountered the problem too and he had fixed to the give me some advice...

    Thank you very much

    you see the card wireless as an unknown device in Device Manager? If this is not the case, perhaps that the card was not properly installed after replacing the motherboard.
