Satellite L40 - 15G - WiFi does not work - cannot activate usign FN + F8

Hello

I have a toshiba satellite L40 - 15 G with windows 7 32 bit and my wireless is not working, the pilot is OK
I do FN + F8 and I can't active wireless :(

What should I do more?

Hello

The Fn + F8 isn't really essential to use the WiFi network. Generally, the WiFi network should be enabled by default.
So even if the Fn + F8 does not work, the WiFi network must be enabled.
You see the local network card in Device Manager? Is it correctly recognized?

Where he is, follow these steps:
Go to the control panel (switch to the large or small icon view)-> network & sharing Center-> left column manage wireless networks
Add here new WLan and configure it by using the right SSID, encryption and password encryption.

  • Satellite P500-1CK - WIFI does not work

    Hello

    I bought a Satellite P500-1CK with Windows 7 64 bit. Cause I don't need, I replaced it with Windows 7 32 bit and now my WIFI does not work.

    I tried many drivers, Toshiba drivers and Realtek drivers, old and new versions. Installed and uninstalled them again and again. But it does not work. In the Device Manager, there is no error and no question mark. The map will be displayed as a RTL 8191SE, it's true. I've identified the vendor & device ID also.
    The other FN keys works like a charm, but FN + F8 does not appear. The wireless switch is active and the led is orange.

    When I type "cmd" then "ipconfig/all" it will be only shown the PCI Atheros Gigabit Adapter with the IP address, but not the adapter WLAN of Realtek.

    Searched Google @ and spend hours and hours, but I am at my wits end... Please help me.

    Hi funthomas22,

    And this doesn t work exactly?

    You see a WLAN in range?
    Have you looked for WLAN networks?
    Can you connect to WIFI networks?

    A point would be interesting: can you try the same thing with preinstalled Windows 7 64 bits instead of your own 32-bit installation?
    Therefore, use the recovery disk Toshiba to restore the version of the OS preinstalled. You will have a pre-tested Toshiba Windows 7 installation where everything should work properly.

  • Satellite A110 - switch WiFi does not work with the new WiFi card

The old wifi card swich works OK - orange light is on. On the new map light is off and swich does not work.

    Help, please

    Hello

    Do you have also enabled the WLAN functionality by pressing FN + F8?
    Check it!

    In addition, I think the case is clear: the new wireless LAN card isn't compatible with Satellite A110.
    So in my opinion, you must use remove the new card Intel and install the old card that works fine in your laptop.

  • Satellite L40-143 - WLAN does not work with the new router

    WLAN on my Satellite L40-143 does not work since I Modem Alice-1121.

    Who can help me, please!

    Hi kenny_21,

    If you have a new WLAN router you must change the configuration that I think

    The new router is visible under WLAN connections and can connect?

    If so try to connect. The standard router password can be found in the manual of it and no doubt, there will be new addresses MAC first before connect you. I put t know the exact configuration.

    Also check the options the WIRELESS card with TCP/IP. Usually, you need automatic IP addresses.

  • Satellite L40 - 18W - Touchpad does not work

    Hey guys...

    I have Toshiba Satellite L40 - 18W, bought in the Middle East, and unfortunately its touchpad does not work... I checked and double checked all the possible places, so anything that is disabled or misconfigured but found nothing.

    As there are quite a few errors in the operating system I formatted my hard drive and install WXP Prof, installed all the drivers, but the touchpad is not always works. I'm very confused as before and after formatting the pointer moves a little when I use the touch pad at the beginning of the UPA start? ¦

    Help, please...

    The best audit is to install the operating system with the original Toshiba recovery image and test it with the factory settings. In this case touchpad should work fine. Otherwise, contact the service and leave check your laptop.

    Sorry, but I don't see another solution for you.

  • Re: Satellite L300D-13s - WiFi does not work with Vista

    I have a L300D-13s that came with Visa Home Premium on it.

    His work very well outside the wireless that refuses to work.
    I always "Wireless Association failed because Windows did not receive response from the access point or wireless router.

    The wiresless is a Realtek RTL8187B Wireless 802. 11b / g 54Mbps USB 2.0 Network adapt
    I am running the latest version of the BIOS and the 6.1148.924.2008 drivers dated 2008-09-24. If I use the latest drivers on the RealTek site, I get a message about an unknown error.

    If I use the NETWORK Ethernet card, then he gets a fine IP address so this isn't the show indicator to publish.
    Its not wireless security (I understand that Vista does not support WEP 128 bit). I turned off and it still does.

    Other laptops running XP connect correctly and this laptop connects fine using no security or WEP or WAP so I boot Linux.
    If the problem obviously lies with Vista and/or the drivers.

    If someone has solved this.

    And no - don't tell me to go out and buy a router "Vista compatible".
    If Vista does not work with router XP and other operating systems compatible with Vista is wrong.

    Hello

    > Other portable XP connect correctly and this laptop connects fine using no security or WEP or WAP so I boot Linux. If the problem obviously lies with Vista and/or the drivers.
    I would say it is not a Vista problem or a Realtek driver problem because I have a Vista and Realtek WLan card and I can connect properly to my router.
    In you case, I would say that there is a compatibility problem between the router and the Vista because as you said the laptop can connect properly using Linux.

    I have goggled a bit and could solve most of the people who have had this issue, update the firmware on the router s.

    Maybe you should try that too.

  • Satellite A665 - 12K: BT does not work - cannot find the remote service

    Hello!

    Help solve the problem,

    Computer laptop A665 - 12 k connected via bluetooth devices, bluetooth Manager finds the device, but do not connect it gives an error 'Cannot find the remote service' before you reinstall windiws solved similar problems 7. Did you reinstall driver broadcom, resettlement (ver.8, ver.9) bluetooth stack, clean the registry, windows 7 the relocation does not contribute to what either.. .Please help!

    Hello

    I recommend you to check the services that are running in the background.
    The point is that if BT service is not running or is not enabled, the BT connection cannot be established.

    To check the service appointment on: Control Panel-> administration-> computer management tools
    or you can directly open the Services' list by typing services.msc command in RUN or Start Menu search box.

    No, you will get a list of available services. Search for services called Bluetooth and activate this service by double-click a service and select the option you want.

    Then try to reactivate the BT using the FN + F8 key combination

    What should do?

    Hey Buddy,

    What is the original drive and where you have ordered the new CD/DVD readers?
    Have you checked if there is a jumper for master/slave definition? If so try with the master and slave.

    The problem is that not all readers are compatible for all laptops. If you don't know which drive is just ask a maintainer approved assistance.

  • Satellite L300: FN F8 does not work to activate Bluetooth

    Thanks for your reply and sorry if I speak very well English.
    I bought 3 Toshiba L300 PSLBGE and after installing Vista, I tried to install the battery blueetoth.
    After a few minutes, the installation program ask for me to plug in the unit (it is built) and to do this I press Fn + F8 but it doesn't work.

  • Satellite L670 - after Win 8 upgrade WIFI does not work properly

    Afteer upgrade to Win 8, the WiFi of my Satellite L670-128 has stopped working properly.

    The connection only works some time, usually only a few seconds before the connection is lost.
    After a few seconds or minutes the connection is restored, just soon to be lost again.

    Cannot download large files or even to see larger photos on normal web pages. Is there any Win8 driver for Broadcom coming 802.11n network card, or should I throw one 2.5 year old computer in the trash?

    Buy a usb-wlan card is not an option, as wireless mice is already "permanently" reserving one of the three usb ports and wlan card it would be just to the left...

    To my knowledge this L670 series isn t Win 8 taken in charge and this means that there is no special Win 8 drivers for this device, so I put t think you will find an another Win 8 driver for this WLan card.

    But do you really want to throw this laptop in the trash just because the wifi does not work properly running Win 8?
    The device was working properly under Win 7?

    I would recommend running a few Wlan test.
    For example; Disable wireless encryption on your router and Wifi connectivity with the open network do that just for testing purposes, perhaps you will need to change the type of encryption to test.
