• Internet connection takes long to launch the Satellite L40 - 12K

  Hello

  Can someone tell me if I can speed up the opening of the internet connection on my laptop.

  I have a Satellite L40 - 12K, with 2 GB of memory, operating system vista Home premium.
  When you enter my user space after 30 seconds the system tray has not all symbols yet, but the drive slows down. At this point, I have the 2-screen symbol with a red cross. Then after 50 seconds, the hard drive shows some activity and then more certain symbols are placed in the system tray.
  Then after about 80 s finally Red Cross disappears.
  I don't know if this is a common problem with vista, or is there something I can do to speed this time.

  pls help me

  Hello

  the problem with Vista is that many things are 'wobbly' which causes the system to do things slower then you're accustomed to XP or other systems.
  The best would be to update ALL your drivers and install each update of Windows available. You can also speed up until your departure by removing unnecessary Autostart entries.
  I recommend reading this extremetech article that describes how to speed up Vista system startup:

• Satellite L40 - 12K - BIOS update failure

  Hi people,

  It is the second Toshiba laptop, I've managed to screw up. I don't know why, but it seems that Toshiba is especially prone to spectacular failure of BIOS.

  This laptop (Satellite L40 - 12K, short model PSL40E) has a bios made by FRIEND and Toshiba has an update on its Web site for windows that uses the tool of WinFlash.exe made by ASUS.

  The tool only works for 32-bit operating systems, and I had installed a 64-bit version of Windows, I could not pass the laptop.

  Then I thought: we will try to update the bios from MS-DOS, using a bootable flash drive!

  I went to the ASUS ftp site and downloaded the latest AFUDOS (2.41). This is a special version of the afudos FRIEND tool, specially designed for ASUS.

  I ran the tool under MS-DOS, and it will make sure the BIOS automatically confirmed that the binary file was compatible with the laptop model and automatically starts the process of flashing.

  But it crash in the phase of "flash erase". He was stuck there for HOURS, so I turned off the computer and tried to turn it back on.

  Not at all, the laptop won't turn. It does not even ANY SOUND. NO LIGHTS, NO NOISE, NO FAN, NOTHING.

  ABSOLUTELY AND COMPLETELY DEAD.

  So, there you have it. I have flashed dozens of computers (servers, laptops, workstations, etc.) in my life, and I've only had TWO failures.

  TWO of them were with Toshiba laptops. Geez, Toshiba is really the King of the failures of BIOS flashing!

  Hello

  I would never try update the Toshiba BIOS with a BIOS from other support pages for computer laptop manufacturer
  What to say; I found one from Toshiba victory of the BIOS and traditional BIOS Toshiba U.S. driver page:

  http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com

  Maybe you could try to Flash the BIOS using this version of BIOS
  If this is not possible, then only a service provider authorized Toshiba would be able to help you.

  By the way: I've had three different Toshiba notebooks: A210, U400, and now Tecra A11.
  The BIOS update has worked perfect for all series...

• Satellite L450D - 11G - no internet connection after reinstalling Win 7

  I just installed win 7 pro 64-bit so I can increase the RAM up.
  Initially I had win 7 Home premium SP1.

  I have a Toshiba satellite L450D - 11G PSLY5E.
  I downloaded all the drivers from Toshiba on a memory stick from a source different and then installed on the Toshiba.

  Then, I opened all the drivers one by one and ran each driver individually.
  In Device manager there is a yellow exclamation next to the network controller.

  I have a home network setup that I can connect to the net using phones, tablets and other portable computers.
  The icon on the laptop says NO CONNECTION, NOT of CONNECTIONS AVAILABLE.

  Y at - it a special order to install the drivers. I have install in the order in which they were downloaded.

  Any ideas anyone. TA

  In Device manager there is a yellow exclamation next to the network controller.

  Probably the essential WLan/LAN drivers are not installed properly.
  Do you have problems with the internet connection using WLAN and LAN?

  I recommend you to check if the correct drivers have been installed.

  The wireless network card should be Realtek RTL8191SE 802.11bgn

  Built in LAN module is published also by Realtek...

  so in both cases you need a Realtek drivers

• P850 satellite and a WiFi - internet connection does not work well

  Hello

  My internet connection does not work with a Wi - Fi connection.
  I have laptop Satellite P850-131, which I bought a few months ago and I noticed that over the past two months the internet connection does not work well. When I connect to the computer shows that I am connected Wi - Fi connections, however there is no connection and I can't access the internet.

  I tried to do all the regular search but nothing works. Sometimes the message I get told that there is a problem with the DNS and other times with the IP address. However, with other computers I didn't have any problem at all to connect to the same Wi-Fis.

  All solutions?

  > When I connect to the computer shows that I am connected Wi - Fi connections, however there is no connection and I can't access the internet.

  If such a problem would appear again start the console (window BACK in typing CMS in search)
  Here, use the command * ipconfig / renew *.

• Satellite L40 - damaged cable that connects the touchpad to motherboard

  Hello

  I've damaged calbe that connects the touchpad to motherboard of Toshiba Satellite L40-139 I can't find a store where I could buy it. I ask someone where I can buy it, I looked to toshiba support they ask me the serial number, but I don't have (its an old computer and I can barely see 57044751 numbers, but they are not valid, so I can't ask them for help. Help, my computer does not start without this cable:]

  Well, the solution is that I should buy complete new device touchpad but I think its too expensive for me because I need a cable (and I don't know if a single cable is damaged, so I don't want to buy additional things that won't help me)

  > I tried toshiba support but they ask me the serial number but I don't have (its an old computer and I can barely see 57044751 numbers, but they are not valid, so I can't ask them for help. Help, my computer does not start without this cable:]

  To be honest, I can't believe that
  The technicians don't need serial numbers to find the right and compatible part.
  You said your laptop Satellite L40-139.
  Generally, it should be enough to get the right part

  As far as I know as the Satellite L40-139 belongs to the PSL40E series.
  Then all Satellite L40 PSL40E must use the same cable.

  I guess you need the touchpad button and cable H000006020
  I found one on ebay.

  However, I think that the Toshiba ASP in your country should be able to provide a straight part just have the model L40-139 PSL40E number

• Satellite Pro C665 and internet connection problems

  Hi, will try and give as much information as I can, so sorry for the long post.

  I bought this new laptop in August is so very old, I connect to the internet with modem USB 3 G telstra and a cycle of 3 weeks he began to abandon the connection within 30 seconds approximately.
  The blue LED on the identification of the USB modem still flash, it has a connection, but I would get the yellow explanation mark on the icon of internet connection in the task bar.

  Now, the only way to recover the connection must close the connection of Telstra, unplug it, plug it back in and reconnect, a few times I have to reboot and will have to go through this routine 5 - 6 times and sometimes up to 10 attempts before I get a stable connection.

  So first I thought it might be the USB modem, so I got a replacement of telstra, but made no difference, then I had a replacement sim card and still no luck.

  Then I did a new install of Windows 7 and installed all the current updates, still no go.

  I then bought a wireless router to eliminate the USB connection and still have the same question.

  Sometimes it can be very frustrating trying to get a solid connection, but once it gets a good connection, it will stay connected for hours without any problem

  I'm not an expert with computers, but can usually find a solution to problems of software, I have, but that left me speechless and I think I've covered most of the region to address this.

  Thanks for your time.

  Unfortunately I can't say anything on Telstra 3 G USB modem. Toshiba doesn't support third party hardware, software and does not offer any kind of support.

  I put t know where you got this USB modem but I m wondering you didn't visit their store and test in functionality it bring your laptop with you. The people who work there could make inspection on site.

  I also put t know why you have this problem at home. Your router is not known to us, but is there a difference when using WLAN secure or unlocked and without password?

• C55-b854 satellite shows the limited internet connection

  It shows the connection some time limited and the adapter is ok.and the internet speed is also slow.

  Hello

  You did not provide details if this happens using a LAN or WLan connection.
  I would recommend checking the two internet connections.
  In the case of this limited connection problem would only appear using the WiFi connection, then you should check the configuration.

  First of all, I would like to recommend that test you different standards WLan 802.11 (B/G/N) and different (WPA/WPA2 AES, TKIP) encryption standards

  By the way; the WLan card also shares the BT. in case you are using WLan, please keep off BT.

• Satellite A300-146 - any internet connection freezes

  Hello world

  I have a problem. When I connect to the internet after about 10-20 minutes, I am unable to work with the browser. When I tried to use the ping command, everything was OK. But the browser don't refresh not all web pages, don't open new pages etc. BUT download works OK.

  I tried: the 3G (mobile phone) connection via an Express card, LAN and WLAN connection. Always the same.

  I tried: IE included in my OS, Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera. Always the same.

  Sometimes the connection icon shows that the zone of confidence is available. When I double click the icon and try to find the problem, the problem (after 10 seconds) is fixed by himself, BUT the browser still has these problems (written above). And if I close the browser (I can close regularly) and try to open it again, I can't open it (it is said that it already works, but does not, I can't remove it process).

  Sing the Vista Home premium (preinstalled).
  Any help?
  Thank you!

  Hello

  Do you mean that the internet connection freezes or the internet browser has no answer?

  According to your post, it seems that the browser wouldn't answer.

  You update the Vista?
  Do this!
