Satellite L550D - WIFI connection stopped working

Hello!

Satellite L550D, WIN7, Realtek PCIe FE Family controller

My wifi stopped working suddenly.
Although my router works fine for 2 reasons
> I am currently connected with an ethernet cable to the router
> I have 2 Android tablets that are WIFI connected to the router

I read a few threads.
I understand that I must:
1. uninstall/reinstall 'Toshiba Value Added Package.
2 uninstall/reinstall "Support of Flash memory card utility"
3. uninstall/reinstall "Realtek Wlan adapter"

Please tell me more.
1. my Ccleaner found 'Toshiba value added package "; I can uninstall it. Once discharged, how will I re - install the new version of PVAT?
2. How will be the uninstall/reinstall "Support of Flash memory card utility"?
3. How do I uninstall/reinstall "card utility technical support Flash?

I'm sorry. It is obvious to you. I am only a user of PC; and it's not obvious to me.

Thank you.

Hello

Before you begin to uninstall or reinstall some Toshiba firmware, I would like to know what Satellite L550D-xxx you exactly.

The point is that different L550D models were equipped with a different wireless network cards.
Not quite sure if your have a Realtek Wlan card. It looks like a Realtek LAN card.

However, you must first check if the wireless network card is recognized correctly in the Device Manager.
In the Manager of peripheral devices, network cards, you should see LAN and WLan card.
In the case where the card WLan display correctly (no yellow exclamation) WLan driver installation is not necessary.

In this case, you should go to the next step: check if you can enable / disable the wireless network adapter using the FN + F8 key combination.
Where this is not possible, check if other keys FN function.
Where other keys FN don t work, you must reinstall the software mentioned (Toshiba Value Package added, Flash cards).

This can be done in the control panel-> programs & features
After that the two software can be removed, clean the system using CCLeaner.
Now, you can check the EU Toshiba driver page http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp to download the software deleted.
Installation is easy; Unzip the package and run the installation exe file

Then you should be able to use the FN + F8
After that the WiFi network has been successfully activated, go to the network & sharing Center-> manage wireless (left) and click Add to configure the new wireless network

    Even if you have not changed the settings in the BIOS, you must Access the BIOS to make sure that the webcam is turned on it!

    I also recommend the suite of this workaround:
    Uninstall the webcam software
    Uninstall the VAP
    Uninstall all software needed the webcam (Skype, etc...)
    Now, restart and install CCLeaner (cleaning of freeware software)
    Reboot once more.

  • LAN Connection stopped working on my computer running WIN XP MEDIA CENTER

    My LAN connection stopped working on my WIN XP MEDIA CENTER-based computer. I have access to the internet with optimum online. I have a router connected to my cable modem (US Robotics) wireless and desktop with the functioning of the wired connection stopped. My wireless connection on my laptop works very well on the same network. I first stop the modem, router, computer and re started at all. Modem Router 1 2nd, then on computer. Usually works, but not this time. Contacted optimum online and went through some procedures to correct the problem. Open cmd prompt, ping tried only to get 3 of any answers and 1 reply. Tried ipconfg / renew, did not work.  Firewall had closed during all of this. Service representative from optimum online said that he could see my modem was working but something like a firewall was blocking my computer access. Tried ipconfig/all and gave him the ip address he asked which showed, 169.254.80.196, he said that address will not work and we continued trying to renew the ip address, and we could achieve.

    Now I mention here that this problem occurred when I had a power surge while I was online. I rebooted and this is the problem that I was. I asked the rep optimal online what else could be the cause as a virus or damaged surge my LAN or OS and he said for me to try to get in touch with microsoft and perhapse they could help me more. I hope someone has an answer for me.

    Please... Help!

    Thank you

    Don Soutar

    Watch 169.254.x.x IP address only:

    • The connection to the LAN is configured to obtain an IP address automatically, and:
    • He cannot communicate with your router to get the address.

    The surge may have damaged the computer's Ethernet card.  If so, replacing it with a new adapter will fix the problem.

    It stopped working before... I installed McAfee and after a bit of reading on the internet, I got rid of McAfee and Easy Connect reworked.

    Now I just use Windows Defender and Windows Firewall and have not installed anything new with the exception of Windows updates.

    Hi compounded,

    Thanks for posting on Microsoft Community.

    I appreciate your efforts to try to solve this problem.

    I'm sorry to know that Easy Connect does not work and it seems that there is a problem with the connection to the peer name resolution server.

    In peer-to-peer environments, peers are based on name resolution systems to resolve each and other locations (addresses, protocols, and ports) from names or other types of identifiers network. Peer-to-peer name resolution has been complicated by transient connectivity and shortcomings in the domain name system (DNS).

    Peer-to-Peer networking platform solves this problem with the PNRP Peer Name Resolution Protocol (), a secure, scalable, and dynamic name registration.

    This question might be the best answer by TechNet. Then I suggest you send the request on the TechNet forums.

    Hello!

    If you use Windows Vista, you must disable the WLAN energy saving function. You can find it in the Vista power management options. Check it!

    In addition, you should try to update the driver WLAN and the BIOS. The two you can find on the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online downloads support & -online Download Driver

    Last but not least, I would recommend that you read hundreds of discussions on the problems of WIFI. You will find so much tips and tricks how to increase the WLAN functionality and troubleshooting.

  • A WiFi just stopped working on my Satellite A300

    I bought a Toshiba Satellite A300 (Vista) and it all started very well. The second day my wifi only stop while I was online... just after does not do anything and now I can't turn it on. The touch wifi and FN + F8 is running. Configfree even can see if the wifi button is on or off, but I do not see the wireless connections (theres allows to be 5 - 6 of them where I live... so theres nothing wrong with the router).

    I can add that there's no conflict in the wireless card and all drivers are up to date. Is this a hardware problem? What are my opptions here?

    It could just be a software problem. Have you recently installed a firewall or Internet Security program? Try to disable them.

    If this does not help, run recovery to reinstall Windows to its factory condition, and then try again. If it still does not work, then it might be a problem with the hardware. First, try a BIOS update and the update of the Wifi pilot before you send the laptop to an ASP for repairs.

    Hello

    There are display settings important to do to be able to use the Wlan.
    First you must activate the Wlan: generally it takes the switch Wlan on POSITION (LED should be bright) and you must activate the Wlan using the Fn + F8 key combination.

    Is this possible?

  • Satellite C855 - speakers suddenly stopped working

    I have a Satellite C855-1J2 running Windows 7 Edition Home Premium SP1. I turned on December 21, 2012 and installed five applications - the latest versions of Firefox, CeltX, Notepad ++, Open Office and Microsoft Security Essentials (I removed McAfee). I have the latest Windows. Since then I have not installed other applications.

    Three days later, my laptop was working fine until, suddenly, that the speakers stopped working. I can identify the specific incident that caused it. I connected a pair of perfectly ordinary headphones using the standard headphone jack, power the laptop off, after that I was done listening but headphones plugged on the left.

    When I turned on the laptop back the next day, no sound came in headphones.
    When I unplugged them, no sound came from the speakers.
    I rebooted my machine and the speakers worked fine.

    However, I am now in a situation where whenever I turn on my laptop, the speakers do not work and they will work again when I restart then. A little investigation of this problem shows the following...

    Whenever I turn on my laptop and go to control panel-> hardware and sound-> manage Audio devices I see two items:

    (1) ' - high definition Audio Device - speakers not plugged"with a speaker greyed out icon with a red arrow.

    (2) "audio digital (S/PDIF) - high definition Audio Device - default device" with a colored external amplifier icon (it looks a bit like a DVD player) with a green check mark. There is an icon of audio level next to him that shows sound whenever the sound is played on my laptop, but no sound is audible, either through my speakers or headphones.

    Whenever I then reboot my laptop and go to control panel-> hardware and sound-> manage Audio devices I can see an article:
    "Speakers - Realtek High Definition Audio - Default Device" with a colorful speaker and a green arrow icon. The sound works perfectly well.

    I already looked online and the Toshiba forums for a solution to this, but while I found lots of people with similar problems of speaker with Toshiba Satellite laptops, I have not found a solution (and when I say something, I mean something a little more useful that "have you tried completely reinstalling your operating system') so this thread.

    Even if a reboot is currently to solve my problem, I obviously shouldn't have to restart my machine at all in order to get something as simple as his, so my questions are:
    (1) what is the cause of this problem - in other words, why what is happening?
    (2) what is the Toshiba solution to this problem?

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    It seems to me that the issue you described above that the speakers would not be chosen as device by default, but the Audio Digital (S/PDIF).
    Somehow the audio driver cannot detect the first initialization of the system speakers.

    I don't know why this happened but I have two proposals:

    (* 1) * uninstall the audio driver from the system. Download the driver from his most recent of the Toshiba page and install it after restarting the laptop first.

    (* 2) * if installing the audio driver is not enough, the last resort would be the recovery of the system.

    (> 2) what is the Toshiba solution to this problem?

  • Satellite M60-132 - USB stops working until you restart

    My problem looks like this:

    All USB ports die after a few minutes (time may vary, but is shortened recently) after the start. They give no error - the USB mouse stops responding, the USB drive gives stops giving "delayed write failure" or sth like that. They are all visible and OK in device (Windows XP) Manager, no problem not being reported here. They have just stop working. I tried to reinstall Windows. It is not dependent on the OS actually. For example, I can boot from a live CD of SuSe Linux and ports will also die after a few minutes - they do on any OS tested.

    Now, I have discovered (GOOGLE usb ports stops working until the reboot) that several Satellite M60 users report this problem with their old cell phones. Exactly the same thing - ports die after a certain time of start and remain that way until you restart. In one case the user writes that he bought a cardbus PCMCIA USB controller and the problem continues - the ports of the controller when dying as well as embedded.

    My idea is to try even when the PCMCIA - maybe it will work in my case (another chip etc - you have never know). And anothr one must try to connect a USB hub to the Firewire port available. There are USB to Firewire Converter cards - could work like that?

    Anyone know any solution to my problem or have an opinion on my ideas? I am looking to buy a new laptop, which I can't really afford right now...

    Hello

    To be honest I've ever read on these problems on the Satellite M60, but it can happen from time to time, because it of also a fairly old laptop.

    My friend also uses a PCMCIA card that has USB ports on his old notebook. He is quite satisfied with this solution because it don t need to each time the USB ports. Just sometimes if he's copying files on USB.
    These cards are cheap, you can get it for a few s Euro and you can buy this card where you want, for example Amazon.co.uk.

    I never heard firewire to USB ports, which is new to me and I n t have experience with this.

    Hello Chris

    There is unfortunately no official document how dismount/mount your Satellite. In my opinion the best solution is to contact the Service of your country partner.

    Hello

    I think that it of really not easy to say what could be the problem
    I can only suggest

    Depending on your message, nothing appears on the screen not even if you would not try to boot from the recovery disk or other bootable discs. Is this good?

    You could try a procedure;
    -Remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter from the portable computer
    -Wait several minutes (about 30 min)
    -try to boot the machine

    Check it out, but if you will not be successful then a hardware malfunction could be the cause of your problem, and you should ask the local ASP to help him!

    Hey Buddy,

    Well, generally, I would suggest that you should disable Windows in energy saving power management feature, but you have already done this... Make sure that this power WLAN economic option is set for maximum Performance, even for the battery mode and all power profiles!

    And what BIOS up-to-date? You have the latest version of the BIOS installed or using an older version?
