This happens a lot and it can be "A PAIN" and really fustrating, I suddenly lost my wireless connection and I can't view available wireless networks to try to connect again, especially since I have to restart the laptop and everthing is back to normal.

He can be nice days then all of a sudden, this will happen, but why am I not pick up all other available networks.

Router... BT HOMEHUB 2.0
network card... REALTEK RTL8187B WIRELESS 802. 11B / G 54MBPS USB 2.0 NETWORK ADAPT.

I know for interference and have done everthing possible to avoid this...

Hello

  • Satellite L300 - does not connect to wireless internet

    I have a satellite L300 (part No.: PSLB8A-0SN004) took me right back to the factory settings (out of box).

    I opened internet connections and all the usual wireless names were there.
    I tried hang my internet (wireless) home and tried several times, with the correct password, however it just does not connect.

    I tried to install the Realtek RTL8187B Wireless LAN driver both Atheros Wireless LAN Driver, but neither helped.

    The Wi - fi switch on the front is also in position to position IT. Please help I have to up my laptop up and running as soon as POSSIBLE.

    > I tried to install the Realtek RTL8187B Wireless LAN driver both Atheros Wireless LAN Driver, but neither helped.

    If the wireless network adapter is recognized in Device Manager, you n t need to install the WLan driver.
    In addition, you said that you can see the wireless networks available in your environment. This means that the WiFi is enabled and works

    I think that you should disable the WiFi settings (WEP, WPA, etc.) only for testing purposes and should try to connect the laptop to the network open, if possible, that means that you badly chosen encraption or the password.

  • Satellite L300 - unable to connect to the wireless network

    I have a NETGEAR router and a Toshiba Satellite L300 laptop HP DV2000.

    The HP can connect to my wireless network and also my neighbors network next door (which is not secure)
    However, the L300 can only connect to the network of my nextdoor neighbour even if it can 'see' the NETGEAR network.

    I changed the security from WPA to WEP up to now no security at all, and it seems not to matter.
    The strange thing is that my L300 CAN connect to a wireless network, but not mine!

    And my wireless network works as I can connect from my HP laptop.
    On the L300 it shows 5 bars on the NETGEAR is not a problem of weak signal.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Try changing the WLAN settings on your router. Compare the WLAN settings on the settings of your laptop and the router.

    Test it with standard B on both devices.
    I mean if your laptop can see neighbours WLAN card wireless network in the laptop must be OK.
    I really thing all is due to wrong WLAN settings.

    Play around with that sort of thing.

  • Satellite L300-1FS - Wireless reconnect after closing the lid

    Hello

    My 2 month old son Toshiba laptop works very well in many ways, but an annoying problem, is that if we close the lid when you open it again it doesn't re connect to our router. If I click on the network connection, it just says: there is no everything!

    Sometimes the switching market re wireless switch will connect there, but more often than not, it's a reboot, which is annoying.

    Proves that the wireless card works but it would be nice to not have him harass me every time it does not connect.

    All ideas welcome.

    Hello

    First a question: what exactly happens if you close the lid?
    This laptop stops, or goes to stand-by or extended sleep?

    However, in your case, I would try to update the driver WLAN and the BIOS. Check the Toshiba website for updates:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    It would be interesting to know what operating system you have and if you are running the factory settings or you have installed another OS?

    A friend told Satellite L300 and he is very satisfied and can t notice any problem. :)

  • Satellite L300-19Y - wireless LAN is not in the list of devices

    Hi I need to throw this one out there incase I throw my pc a bridge...

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300-19Y which recently gubbed the HD, so I replaced and am trying to install XP SP3.

    However, even with what i belive to be the correct drivers I can't seem to access my wireless LAN.
    I installed most of the pilots involved, and have access to the Internet via the NIC with a connecting cable.
    It was a struggle to get even, even if I really need a wireless...

    At the moment the wireless device does not appear in the list of devices, although I can see my network card.
    I have some thoughts on how to activate the wireless, I tried to install the driver manually wireless but didn't get any wherever I get a code 10 XP Shutdown response.

    I've updated the BIOS, I have the latest drivers 8187b, I installed the kernel, the chipset, the display and audio drivers... etc.
    I installed a new copy of XP but you have not installed all the drivers until I know that the correct procedure...

    Any ideas would be appreciated...

    Arghh!

    Andy

    Hello

    You should try to activate the WLAN using the hardware on the laptop switch (must be defined on and with the combination of keys FN + F8.
    Did you do that?

    In addition, you can get all the drivers for your laptop on the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    I assume that you have installed your laptop with a disc of Microsoft, so you should try it with the Toshiba recovery disc. It contains an image of the settings from the factory with all the drivers and tools. After that, everything should work fine on your laptop.

  • 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:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/?page=downloads

    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
    In the Device Manager-> properties-> Advanced tab Wlan card, you can choose the standard Wlan 802.11

    Hi mate,

    Just a simple question: have you activated the wireless network adapter using the hardware on the computer switch portable and key combination FN + F8?

    Satellite L300 is permanently equipped with wireless network card because a friend of mine had the same specifications.

    However, you should try to update the WLAN driver. Check the download page of the Toshiba driver for an update.

  • Satellite L300 - how to connect to an analog TV?

    Hello..

    I have a Satellite L300 laptop.

    I want to connect it to an analog TV.

    The external monitor on the laptop output a VGA out? How can I connect to an analog TV? Is it enough to buy a RCA VGA cable? (the one with the VGA input and 3 output cable). Or I need something more?

    Please help me with this.

    Hello

    I have a Satellite L300 too and it s equipped with a standard VGA output port. This means that you can use this port to connect the laptop a TV. As you say, this is why you need a RCA VGA cable. That s enough and you don t need more cable or adapters.
    In my case, it worked for me.

    If your laptop has a S-video port, you can use this port too.

  • Question about the Satellite L300 to TV connection

    Hi everyone, first of all this is my first post.

    Also I'm a bit geek o when it comes to computers etc., I can use one but im not a wizz tech kid as well as use of base of an im afraid.

    I have a Satellite L300 laptop.

    My question is, my laptop has no HDMI port, but it has a VGA port.
    I have a digital TV with many ports Inc. USB, VGA, HDMI etc.

    I am downloading movies and burn them on dvd, but it's very tedious, so I wonder if I connect the laptop to the tv to use the TV as a monitor screen? so, I can either watch the dvd on the tv, and gold to direct flows to the laptop and then on television.

    I connected a vga cable for the necessary ports between the TV and the pc, and although television confirms that a pc is connected, there is only a white screen? so I guess I can't connect in this way.

    It is not possible to connect using the usb ports? or of other ideas like if I may or may not connect to this laptop?

    Kind regards

    Bob

    Hi Bob

    What laptop has no HDMI port this is a bit complicated. In General, you should be able to use your TV as external monitor. When you connect your laptop with VGA cable to your TV and turn on this port to the TV use the FN + F5 key combination and desktop to TV switch.

    If your TV is correctly detected when you use FN + F5, you should see several options. Problem is that the VGA connection is for video only and you will not hear on your TV. You can transfer the sound, but you must separate the wires and connect the headphone jack of your laptop and openings of his TV or even receiver Hi-Fi if you a.

    It's a little complicated.

  • Satellite L300-243 to connect camcorder JVC

    Toshiba Satellite L300-243 was purchased primarily for use with Pinnacle 12 doing video editing.
    My previous PC had a connection to the firewall 4-4, but there is no similar link on laptop.

    Can I use a cable USB 4 - do the download of the camcorder to the laptop?
    Or is there another plug on the laptop I have to use?

    Bob

    Hello

    I guess the JVC Camcorder supports firewire interface and it was connected to the computer via a firewire cable.

    Unfortunately, it seems that the Satellite L300-243 does not support firewire port.

    In your case, you could buy an Express card that contains the firewire port.
    Then, you can connect the camcorder to the laptop.

    See you soon

  • Satellite L500 - lost wireless connection

    My Satellite L500 recently lost the wireless connection. I looked towards the top of the Realtek wireless device in Device Manager and it says that the device is functioning properly. I tried to use "ping 192.168.1.1" join the router, and I get "error Transmit - general failure."

    Any ideas?

    Hey Buddy,

    And now Windows recognize some WIFI networks at your fingertips? Your validation lost wireless connection isn't very useful

    You should try a WLAN driver update that you can download from the official page of Toshiba:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/

    If you can't find or connect to WLAN networks deactivate in the Windows of the WLAN power save mode power profiles. You will need to set for maximum performance.
