Satellite C660 - 1440 Wireless connection interruption on battery

My satellite seems to suffer from an unstable WiFi connection. It seems to be worse when operating on battery. I read a few comments in the FAQ, indicating that it might be an old driver or my settings for energy savings.

I installed a newer driver and also tried to change the energy settings on my adapter (not allowing to close), but without satisfying the result. Other options I could try. I find it rather annoying, especially because my I - pod works great on WiFi...

Thank you!

And Satellite you need exactly?
Are you using the original pre-installed OS that you got with your laptop (factory settings)?

  • Satellite C660-2EL - Wireless n and the F8 function key does not show

    Satellite C660-2EL - Wireless works sometimes, but mostly not. Wired connection is ok. When does not not Fn 8 does not appear and the wireless card does not appear in the devices.
    Pilot was handed in place.

    Have tried reset default and many other things - yesterday was working - light today and not...

    Help!

    Hello

    If the wireless network adapter does not work or its lack in the device, the FN + F8 key combination Manager would not work.
    So the problem is your wireless network card.

    The WLan card driver is missing or malfunctioning of the WiFi chip.
    The device uses the Realtek RTL8188CE WLan card.
    Have you installed the chip RTL8188CE WLan driver?
    Make sure what you've done!

    Otherwise, if the WLan card is not listed in the Manager (no unknown device or Ethernet controller) devices marked with yellow exclamation point I guess that the module is faulty.

  • Satellite C660 - 115 WLan connection only works when the power cable is connected

    Hello

    A few weeks ago, I bought a Satellite C660-115. I want to surf the internet anywhere in my house without any son/cables.
    On the first day, I had this problem: when I disconnect _power_ cable, the wireless connection will stop working.

    The Web page on my screen will always be there, but a new page loading is a problem.
    It is sometimes useful to recharge (by pressing F5), - sometimes not. It is always useful to "ip address of repair", but not for long.

    The only solution is to atach regardless of how much power the battery has still the power cord.
    When I do, it is no problem whith the connection at all.
    I went back to the store where I bought it, they related to their own wireless network and they have had the same problem after a few minutes. In the shop too attach the power cable solved the problem.

    So the problem must be in my lap top, not in my network (modem or almost).

    Doesn't this all seem familiar, and if so, how can I solve this?

    I hope that my English is understandable, I live in Holland.
    Thanks in advance!

    I have a Satellite C660-195, I've had an ongoing problem since the day I bought it and when I connect it to the network, it loses the connection to the internet. The wireless function will switch off completely.

    Can someone advise the best course of action?

    I put t know what WLan driver version you are using and I don t know what BIOS is preinstalled on your laptop, so I recommend you update the BIOS. Then download the latest driver for WiFi (Realtek RTL8188CE) for this device and update it.

  • On Satellite L750/0 wireless connectivity issues s 5

    I own a laptop L750/0 s 5.

    I seem to have a problem with my wireless connection, where anywhere not at 10 m from the router the connection cuts in and out with the yellow sign 'limited connectivity' always appears. disconnect and reconnect solves the problem for a few minutes. Ive resorted to the close session of the router.

    the computer is 2 months old, the Wlan driver is up-to-date. power options have been configured to be on maximum performance for Wlan etc etc.

    The main thing that annoys me, it's all the others (much older laptops) in our House very much work where mine doesn't. I actually lost performance from where I can get my old toshiba portege m300 to this new wireless signals.

    In terms of information, the computer is running windows 7. Wireless network card is Atheros AR9002WB-1NG.

    If theres any other information that you need, as im sure there will be, I would like to know and ill try my best.

    The router is really new.

    Thanks for your help

    > the computer is 2 months old, the Wlan driver is up-to-date. power options have been configured to be on maximum performance for Wlan etc etc.

    The latest Wlan drivers can be found here:

    Please keep in mind that you use the latest driver v9.2.0.419.0

    To be honest, I had the same idea to disable the power save for Wlan and it more often it should work are you sure that you have changed this in the same power station that is used when the laptop is running on battery power?

    However, it would be interesting to know if the Satellite L750 uses the same Wlan 802.11 standard, as do other portable

    > It runs Windows 7 with all updates on a wireless n network.

    Have you noticed the same problem with WiFi using another standard Wlan as 802.11 B or G?

    The laptop seems to supports the 802.11(b/g/n) of Realtek RTL8188CE WLan card.
    You can compare the version of the driver Wlan available including the version available here:

    the last seems to be: 1005.19.0420.2011

    In addition, it would be interesting to know if the WiFi network disconnects using only the power of dough or also use laptop connected to the power adapter.

    It would be possible that the system saves energy and this affects the Wlan functionality.
    In this case, you should disable this option in: Device Manager-> WLan card-> properties-> last tab (power management).

    You must also uninstall the TCP/IP v6 and must use only TCP/IPv4

  • By Satellite C660-174: WLan connection drops after 5 min

    Hello

    I recently bought a toshiba laptop (satellite c660-174) and am having problems with my wireless internet connection.
    (I currently use the Airport Express Terminal and my macbook has no problem whatsoever)

    The problem is that my internet connects for a few minutes at a time, then falls back, I was invited to run the network diagnostics which solves the 'problem' it will work again for a few minutes then the same thing happens... etc etc.

    I am 100% sure the router and the connection is ok, because I've been running the macbook at the same time and who never fails or loses its internet signal.

    any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

  • Satellite C660-108 - Wireless does not work

    Hey everybody,

    New to the forum, I had to sign up because of a problem with shame. I would like to apologize in advance because I know nothing about how computers work.

    I have a toshiba satellite c660-108, windows 7 OS. Yesterday I was updating it and I used it very well after that I restarted. He stops and went to bed. Today, I turned on and he did a system restore, don't know why. So all went through and then it wouldn't connect to the internet wireless, only ethernet cable (http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=69127&tstart=0 - same problem as far as I can tell).

    I'm in the middle of my diploma thesis and word does not work now, so I did a full factory restore hoping everything would be ok. This isn't.

    Ive tried to download the driver toshiba wireless, just didn't work. It currently downloads Realtek but I'm sure it won't work either.

    How to get another wireless network card?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    The essential is that you it works again.
    So congratulations. :)

  • Satellite C660-258 - Internet connection issues

    Recently, my laptop started to suffer serious problems when you try to connect to the internet.
    My download and upload slow to a crawl (only for laptop)

    Usually (according to speedtest.net) I get around a download about 4 but on my laptop it reaches maximum 0.09 dl.

    Whenever I restart my laptop it works kind of during about 10 minutes (I get about a 1 download), but then it slows down to a crawl.

    I confess that I am not the most tech savvy people so I only did the basics (turn it on and try again, other connections, reset the router, connect through a cable) but none of this has worked.

    Any help you could provide would be most welcome.

    Hello

    To be honest I don t understand your problem you have a problem with the internet connection is slow?

    Usually, this is not a problem or computer in the system but the problem with the connection provided by the internet provider (ISP).

    However, you compared the speed using LAN and WLan?
    Did you check the internet connection by using other WLan hotspots or other WiFi network?
