Satellite C660D-178: ethernet on a usb Linux support does not work

Hello

I found that none of the two usb ports can handle ethernet via the usb port. This is a usual Linux feature - when you connect two computers with a usb cable, it can function as a network interface.
Surprisingly, C660D-178 appears to be the very first machine, with that I found that it doesn't work.

Why?

No chance to activate?

Thank you
D.

Hello

USB never tested and used by Ethernet but there is a tool called USB Over Ethernet
It s 15 days trial version and compatible with Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista/2008/7

You can try to test this using a version of Windows in this case you can know if it s linux question or maybe this feature is not supported by the hardware

  • Satellite L50 - C - 1 L 2 - USB 3.0 does not work correctly

    Hi, the new Satellite L50 - C - 1 L 2 has maybe a problem of USB 3.0. All the componetens that I connect to USB 2 works correctly. But some of these plugged into USB 3 doesn't work. A driver from Microsoft for USB 3.0 extensible Hostcontrolller v 1.0 is installed, no more. I cannot find any USB 3.0 driver in collection of driver of Toshiba. What can I do? They are a special USB 3.0 driver?

    Greetings, Michael

    im not toshiba but tell me how you know that your usb sata 3 do not work, you should have a usb 2.0 port and two usb 3.0 ports, if you use the usb 2.0 to usb 3.0 port device you will get only 2.0 speeds. USB 3.0 is backward compatible with usb 2.0 even peripheral id usb 3.0 according to manufacturer and specs of the device and how to use it. lets say spec is of high quality and again then you transfer files small speed should be fast that belong to 3.0 speeds but if you transfer large files then your currency becomes warm or hot and gets corrupted performance speeds down you can even get up to usb 2.0 speed and maybe that's why you think that your USB 3.0 ports do not work correctly , I hope that its clear things that worry you.

  • Portege R500 - keyboard USB Legacy support does not work

    I have a Portege R500-124

    I use it to dock in the office and the lid is closed, so I need to enter a password for DriveCrypt and generally control the boot/BIOS from a USB keyboard. But no matter what I set the setting that is inherited from the USB in the BIOS, the USB keyboard does not work. I tried the keyboard connected directly to the R500 when undocked and it's all the same. I also tried BIOS 1.6 and that's all the same.

    USB keys are working and I can boot from them, but no work of measures (for example, F12 to choose the BOOT device) keyboard - the R500 doesn't seem to have the functional USB keyboard support until an operating system (Windows or Linux) has started.

    Any ideas?

    I can't confirm this, but I'm afraid you're right about that.

  • USB 3.0 does not work on HP Pavilion 23 g010

    USB 3.0 does not work on HP Pavilion 23 g010. Can not find the driver from HP site that works. Can anyone help please because it is a new computer? Windows 8 is installed, but owner downgraded to Windows 7. I tried the drivers that are supposed to work and the said error box "this computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing this software"... don't know what to do but would appreciate greatly any input...

    Hello:

    Your model has an AMD chipset and processor.  Therefore, the Intel chipset driver will not work.

    First, install the AMD chipset driver and restart.

    You want to download the 49.7 MB file.

    http://support.AMD.com/en-us/download/chipset?OS=Windows%207%20-%2064

    If that does not install the USB 3.0 drivers (see the file they are included), then download and install both of these drivers and USB 3.0 will work for sure in this way.

  • Satellite Pro L20-212 - USB 2.0 does not work

    Hello

    I own a * Satellite Pro L20-212 *, * Windows XP (SP2) is installed, but USB2.0 does not work *. I see nothing on USB 2.0 in the Devicemanager and the speed of the USB 2.0 devices attached is at the level of the USB 1.1.

    I don't know what information is needed to help me with this problem as it should normally work on my laptop (and I know that the laptop has USB 2.0 ports).

    What I have to install a special driver to use USB2.0 or is there any software on my laptop that I need to activate?

    Hello

    Did you install the image on the Toshiba Recovery CD? This image contains the Windows operating system, Toshiba drivers and additional utilities. After installation, everything should work fine, and also the USB ports should work also.

    The USP ports, you can find in Device Manager in the serial BUS controller universal section. Open the tree and check if there is some yellow exclamation points.
    Then try to remove the Device Manager, the controllers and the USB hub and restart the laptop. After restarting again the OS should recognize USB controllers deleted again.

    I hope that this accelerated procedure will help you.

  • Satellite Pro P300-276: switch WLan on the front does not work

    Hello.

    I have a problem with my laptop and would like to receive help or ideas. The switch to forward wireless network adapter does not work.

    It works when I push it to the right and keep pushing it. Then light work, he finds the network, and the convenience store told me that everything is working well. When I let go, the light turns off, it can't find the network and the convenience store tells me that I have to put on the wireless network adapter.

    I suspect that it is a physical problem and I need to get the machine repaired. But if someone has a quick easy solution or a recommendation, then I would like.

    I'm online now using an ethernet cable (via a powerline adapter, which I tend to use anyway). Furthermore, the laptop is great and I love the big screen.

    Thanks in advance,

    Matthew

    Yes, in my opinion, his mechanical problem in something wrong with the switch may be a loser contact

    I think that the one and only one solution: laptop must be disassembled and the switch needs to be replaced

    But it is not easy and to be honest I advise to use a dongle USB external WiFi instead of paying lots of money to get this replaced change.

  • Satellite A0302 C50D and Ubuntu 12.04.4 - touchpad does not work so well

    I have a Satellite C50D-A0302, PSCGWF part number.
    I use Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS Pangolin specific to this topic, but the touchpad does not work so well.

    How can I get the right drivers for the touchpad?

    How do I know if the touchpad is Synaptics or ALPS, so I can get the correct drivers?

    Thank you!

    As you probably know Toshiba does not support Linux and does not offer Linux drivers.
    All about you Googling can find many Linux forums. Try to find useful information here. I mean you can exchange your experiences with other people who are fans of Linux and experts, so I assume that you can get help here.

  • Satellite P500 - after update BIOS on the numeric keypad does not work anymore

    I just had a Satellite P500 and am running Windows 7. I downloaded all the latest drivers and updated the system BIOS to version 1.70 (from Toshiba support website). Now, my numeric keypad of the keyboard does not work.

    The NumLock light is on and when I hit the key "6" on the pavement, he turns the power light, but the behavior of the other keys does not change that it is on or off. The '-' key to enter a '6', but none of the other keys (except "enter" does nothing.

    I removed the keyboard driver and rebooted to reinstall the keyboard driver, but has no effect. The keyboard has worked for a few days after that I flashed the bios but seems to have stopped since I started using a USB mouse. I tried to uninstall the USB mouse driver, but who have nothing do either (it was a Logitech driver).

    Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance

    > I did not upgrade bios 1.7
    Maybe you should try upgrading the BIOS
    As another user has suggested upgrading the BIOS 1.7 helped, even if the end user has updated the BIOS twice

  • Satellite program-112 P775: HDMI connection to the TV does not work

    Hello

    For some reason that the HDMI connection between my Toshiba Satellite P775 program-112 to LG TV no longer although he did for some time.

    I tried another laptop without problem.

    I posted the same question some time ago and told to press the Fn and F5 keys, but it did not work.

    Any suggestions please?

    You are right: the FN + F5 switches between the internal and external video output.

    What exactly happens when you press FN + F5? A map falsh menu appears on the screen when you use this key combination?

    On the page of the Toshiba UE driver you can find the Manager command HDMI. This driver is required for your HDMI controller.
    In the case where the output to HDMI does not work, try reinstalling the driver

  • Satellite U400-12F: LED power button & HDD protector tool does not work

    Hello

    I have a Satellite U400-12F and I bought a Vista Ultimate.
    After you have installed all the drivers and Toshiba of the corect order downloads, the button to turn on the power lights does not work.

    And I tried to install HDD protection Utility but the installer returned an error like 'cannot be installed on this model.
    Do you know why these problems?

    Thank you very much
    concerning
    Daniel

    > After installing all the drivers and software of Toshiba by order, the button to turn on the power switch lights does not work.
    Please check the BIOS settings. As I m not wrong not it takes an option called LED illumination or something like that. There you can turn on and off.
    Also, try to customize the special button of TOSHIBA using the Toshiba control utility.
    There are also some useful options.
    But to be honest I n not know exactly if this button doesn't work with Win XP. Maybe this feature is not available in XP.

    > I tried to install HDD protection Utility but the installer returned an error like 'cannot be installed on this model.
    This error message appears if you try to install a tool that was not designed for this series of laptop.
    The U400-12F seems to belong to the PSU40E. Check if it s a good tool.

  • 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
